Meanwhile, director Taika Waititi confirmed to IGN that Gorr’s appearance was altered to look less like Voldemort.
His face in the comics, unfortunately, does kind of resemble Voldemort. You know, so I was like people are going to just automatically going to make that connection. So we decided to depart from that design a bit more, sort of keep elements of the tone, and the fact that he had the sword. But really, it was about his story, that was the most important thing for us.

The Winchesters
During a recent panel at Supernatural Orlando, Jensen Ackles stated the way the prequel series The Winchesters plays with Supernatural continuity “may not be what you expect.”
I’m excited to see what you guys think of the twists. I had somebody yesterday in a Meet & Greet, [who said] ‘Just so you know, John didn’t know about hunting until after Mary died.’ And my response was ‘Oh, I’m well aware.’ Don’t think that we’re just tossing away 15 years of established story. It’s just how we’re going to get to it may not be what you expected.
