Y&R alum Shemar Moore returns to Criminal Minds

Former The Young and the Restless star Shemar Moore (ex-Malcolm Winters) is reprising his role as Criminal Minds' Derek Morgan.

It doesn't look like Shemar Moore will be reprising his role as The Young and the Restless' Malcolm Winters anytime soon, but the next best thing is in the works: he's returning to Criminal Minds as Derek Morgan.

The popular actor, who left the CBS primetime series in 2016 after an eleven-year run, will be featured as a guest star in the season 12 finale airing Wednesday, May 10, TV Line reports. The storyline will heavily feature Moore's Derek, who brings the BAU a lead in a case against serial killer/escaped convict Mr. Scratch, who has terrorized the team all season.

This isn't the first time Moore has made an unexpected return to a series he formerly called home. He famously reprised his role as Y&R's Malcolm for a couple of episodes back in 2014.

As previously reported, Moore just recently signed on to CBS' upcoming series S.W.A.T., which was inspired by the 2003 film of the same name.
