'Sleepy Hollow' Season 4 Release Date, News & Update: Abbie Mills Reason For Skipping 2016 San Diego Comic Con? S4 Production Work Underway?

"Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 will not see participation by "One Day" actor Tom Mison, who plays Ichabod Crane, sat the 2016 San Diego Comic Con. Is the reason for missing "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 promotion at the Comic Con because of the unpopular exit of "Jacob's Ladder" actress Nicole Beharie as Abbie Mills?

TVLine reports that "Sleepy Hollow" joins "American Horror Story" in non-participation at the 2016 San Diego Comic Con. Carter Matte points out that "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 is missing out on the valuable opportunity to restore the bond with loyal followers following Abbie Mills' death.

As it is, the "Sleepy Hollow" Season 3 finale, fan buzz had been loud about boycotting S4 because Abbie Mills is gone. The media outlet proposes that the 2016 San Diego Comic Con would have been, so to speak, an avenue of reconciliation among fans and "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 after Abbie Mills' exit.

Tom Mison did make an appearance at the 2016 MCM London Comic Con, so the SDDC 2016 miss may not have been an intentional miss over Abbie Mills. "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 may actually already be continuing the tale of Ichabod Crane after being orphaned by his partner, co-Witness and friend Abbie Mills.

The 2016 San Diego Comic Con schedule may have coincided once more with "Sleepy Hollow" production work as it did last year. IGN reports that in 2015, "Sleepy Hollow" skipped the San Diego Comic Con as well because the series had early production work for S3 conflicting with SDCC.

If so, then Tom Mison has begun the long trek for Ichabod Crane to find his bearings in a "Sleepy Hollow" world without Abbie Mills as his mentor and teacher. According to E! News, "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 will see Tom Mison take Ichabod Crane to Washington where the Witness will join a new organization.

Release date for "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 is yet to be announced. The powers that be, however, say that "Sleepy Hollow" Season 4 will be quite different from the previous years.
