Released in 2108, Hotel Artemis is a dystopian crime thriller that takes place in a futuristic Los Angeles. The film is about a secret hospital called Hotel Artemis, set up to care for criminals, run by a brilliant Nurse named Jean Thomas (Jodie Foster) and her assistant Everest (Dave Bautista). The hospital has one main rule – no weapons, no non-members, and no killing other guests. Sterling K. Brown plays Sherman, a professional criminal who was involved in a botched bank robbery and ended up injured alongside his brother.

When Gordon decides that Sam is a danger to the world, he sets out to kill him, but Dean and Sam find a way to get him arrested rather than have to kill one of their dad’s old allies. Eventually, Gordon ends up turning into a vampire, but he remains steadfast in killing other vampires and still keeps his eye on eliminating Sam. Ironically, Gordon was supposed to have an even longer storyline, but he signed on for Army Wives and was only allowed two more Supernatural episodes to end his arc (via Eclipse).
