Previously, cancellation rumors on the popular soap are rife. The presumed factors that sparked speculations are the change in time slot, delay in production and the hectic schedule of Rhimes. It cannot be denied that the showrunner’s plate is full with big projects like “Grey’s Anatomy” and “How To Get Away with Murder.”
The huge fan base of the series can possibly see a rekindled romance between Olivia and President Fitz in the forthcoming upcoming episodes. As his leadership ends, a new name will take his slot and it could either be Mellie Grant (Bellamy Young) or Governor Vargas (Ricardo Chavira).
Per International Business Times, major deaths are also expected. The teaser shows a bomb explosion in an empty lot that was witnessed by (Guillermo Diaz) and Quinn (Katie Lowes). Moreover, fans of the show will see the entrance of “Glee” alum Jessalyn Gilsig, who took Joelle Carter’s place in portraying the role of Jake Ballard’s (Scott Foley) wife.
It looks like the soap is packed with intense action and emotional drama. Gladiators are sure to have their new year’s treat with a blast.
Check the trailer below and be stunned with the big reveals of “Scandal” season 6.
