Criminal Minds: Evolution fans apparently will be saying goodbye to longtime cast member Josh Stewart. The actor today posted on X (fka Twitter) that “sadly, my days of playing Will LaMontagne Jr. are over,” adding “You guys have been the absolute best.”
Stewart first appeared as a recurring on the original CBS drama Criminal Minds in Season 2 as NOPD detective William LaMontagne Jr. He went on to appear on at least one episode each season. In the two-part season 7 finale, Will wed Special Agent J.J. Moreau, played by A.J. Cook. He appeared in nine out of ten episodes in Evolution’s first season, revealing to J.J. at one point that he was concerned he had cancer.
“It’s based on a true-life illness that we wanted to honor,” showrunner Erica Messer told Deadline’s sister pub TVLine in a previous interview. “We wanted to plant that seed now.” She went on to say, fortunately Will just had an inflamed thyroid, so “next [season], hopefully, he’s going to be OK,” Messer said. “But” — and that but looms very large now — “he’s not necessarily out of the woods forever.”
Evolution‘s second season is set to premiere this year.
We’ve reached out to the show’s reps for comment on Stewart’s social media post.

Addie Morfoot Contributor The 40th edition of Sundance proved that despite corporate consolidation, there is still a market for independently made documentaries. While there haven’t been many sales so far, there has been strong buyer interest in two celeb-focused docs — “Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story” and “Will & Harper,” featuring Will Ferrell — and healthy interest in others. “The market didn’t have a pulse six months ago,” says Submarine Entertainment sales agent Josh Braun, who came to the festival with nine documentaries seeking distribution, including “Daughters,” “Gaucho Gaucho” and “Union.” “So there was a reason to be a little bit fearful coming into Sundance.
