Victor Garber and John Noble Joining ‘Sleepy Hollow’ Cast In Final Four Episodes

Sleepy Hollow keeps getting better and better. First, Fringe star John Noble joined the cast as the Sin Eater. Now Victor Garber is coming to town as Ichabod Crane's father for the series final four episodes of season one.

Sleepy Hollow stepped up a notch when it added Fringe lead John Noble to the cast. The ultra creepy--yet equally talented--actor plays the Sin Eater in the biblically inspired re-imagining of the classic tale.

Now, Alias star and all around TV legend, Victor Garber, is joining the cast as Ichabod Crane’s father. Garber is just one more reason while we will miss this show after the four short episodes that the show has left.

Don’t worry Sleepy Hollow fans, the series hasn’t been cancelled. Fox announced very early on that the show will be picked up for a second season. However, because of the previously scheduled return of the Kevin Bacon series The Following, Hollow was not picked up for the back nine.

Sleepy Hollow showrunner, Mark Goffman, recently spoke to the L.A. Times about the breakthrough hit series.

“This show has an epic nature to it and the characters find themselves in constant peril, and yet they are aware of just how insane all of this might seem. We really try to approach this from a grounded perspective, grounding these characters based on how we would react in their situation. I think allowing the characters to have a moment where they could reflect on just how crazy what’s happening is, keeps us grounded. One of the words we use in the writers room a lot is ‘fun’--will this be fun to watch? We try to follow a scare with a laugh and a laugh with a scare. It is really freeing to just write and have fun with these characters and allowing this world to continue to tumble out of control.”
