Castle is an American crime drama television series, which premiered on ABC on March 9, 2009. The series is produced jointly by Beacon Pictures and ABC Studios. Created by Andrew W. Marlowe, it primarily traces the lives of Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion), a best-selling mystery novelist, and Kate Beckett (Stana Katic), an NYPD homicide detective, as they solve various unusual crimes in New York City. Detective Beckett is initially infuriated at the thought of working with a writer and goes to great lengths to keep him out of her way. However, the two soon start developing feelings for each other. The overarching plot of the series focuses on the romance between the two lead characters, and the murder of Beckett's mother.

Premise

Castle follows Nathan Fillion as Richard Castle, a famous mystery novelist who has killed off the main character in his book series and has writer's block. He is brought in by the NYPD for questioning regarding a copy-cat murder based on one of his novels. He is intrigued by this new window into crime and murder, and uses his connection with the Mayor to charm his way into shadowing Detective Kate Beckett, played by Stana Katic. Castle decides to use Beckett as the model for Nikki Heat, the main character of his next book series. Beckett, an avid reader of Castle's books, initially disapproves of having Castle shadow her work, but later warms up and recognizes Castle as a useful resource in her team's investigations.

Cast and characters

Main article: List of Castle characters

Main cast

  • Nathan Fillion as Richard Edgar Castle/Richard Alexander Rodgers, a best-selling mystery writer. Plagued with writer's block after killing off his popular lead character, Derrick Storm, whom he no longer found inspiring, Castle found himself involved in the case of a copycat killer recreating murder scenes from his novels. He discovers a new source of inspiration in Kate Beckett, the detective leading the investigation, so he uses his friendship with the mayor of New York to become involved in her investigations as a civilian consultant. He regularly uses his knowledge and talent to help solve murders, usually by taking evidence and assembling it into a narrative to explain their current case. He is twice-divorced and shares an apartment with his daughter and his mother. Earlier seasons of the show depict him as an immature womanizer; however, later seasons show a more mature and sensible side of him, albeit only slightly. His close working relationship with Beckett results in him falling in love with her. They get together in the start of season five. He proposes at the end of the fifth season, the two become engaged in season six, and they marry in the seventh season.
  • Stana Katic as Detective Katherine Houghton "Kate" Beckett, a homicide detective with the NYPD's 12th Precinct. Beckett is a first-class investigator who has gained a reputation for being intrigued by unusual cases. She joined the force after her mother was murdered in an unsolved case.[1] After meeting Beckett, Castle is inspired to begin a new series of novels about a female NYPD detective named Nikki Heat, clearly based on Beckett. Initially cold and hard towards Castle, she soon warms up to him and eventually falls in love with him. In the fourth-season finale, Beckett resigns from the NYPD after she and Det. Esposito hide vital information regarding a case from Captain Gates, but later reneges on this and is allowed to return after she serves her suspension. She also briefly works as a Special Investigator for the Attorney General in early season six before returning to the NYPD. In the first episodes of season five, it becomes clear that Kate and Castle are in an intimate relationship. The two become engaged at the start of the sixth season and get married in season seven.
  • Jon Huertas as Detective Javier "Javi"/"Espo" Esposito, a former Army Special Forces soldier who now works in the homicide division as part of Beckett's team. He is always ready with a sardonic comment to keep Beckett on her toes and enjoys the way Castle riles her. He recognizes Castle's and Beckett's attraction from the start and sometimes advises Beckett on her relation to Castle. He and Kevin Ryan are close friends, even though they constantly argue about obscure facts.[2] He has a brief relationship with Dr. Lanie Parish in the third season, which ends with things being awkward between them, making them unable to work around each other for some time. He was suspended from the NYPD for hiding vital information from Captain Gates in a case concerning Beckett's well-being. In that case, he felt betrayed by his partner, Det. Kevin Ryan. He has since been reinstated on the force and has reconciled with Ryan.
  • Seamus Dever as Detective Kevin Ryan, a former Narcotics detective who also works as part of Beckett's team. He and Esposito regularly tease Beckett, but they are also protective of her.[3] The character was a late addition to the show as the original presentation pilot was only 37 minutes long.[4] Ryan marries his girlfriend, Jenny O'Malley, in season four. In the final episode of season four, Ryan fails to support Beckett and his partner Esposito, which jeopardizes his partnership with the two of them, although they reconcile later. In season five he is revealed to have worked undercover in the Irish mob. In season six, Jenny gives birth to their daughter.
  • Tamala Jones as Dr. Lanie Parish, a medical examiner with an upbeat outlook. She is a friend of Beckett and is one of the few people Beckett can talk to easily and without reservation. Parish notices the personal connection between Beckett and Castle and urges her to act on it.[5] In the third season, Lanie and Esposito begin a relationship they believe is secret, though the other main characters are aware of it. They later break up, making it awkward for them to work together for a time, but have since reconciled.
  • Ruben Santiago-Hudson as Captain Roy Montgomery (Season 1–3), Beckett's boss and Captain of the 12th Precinct. Montgomery appreciates Beckett's determination and diligence but maintains a close watch to make sure the investigations go smoothly. He is amused by how much Castle annoys Beckett but also appreciates how effectively the two work together. At the end of the third season, he is killed after staging a trap to capture a hired killer involved in the conspiracy that killed Beckett's mother.[6] In the sixth-season episode "Veritas", Beckett recalls Montgomery telling her, before she became a detective, to look through her mother's belongings for a clue in her murder. She finds a tape in which Bracken discusses the murder of Bob Armen and framing Joe Pulgatti, admitting to blackmailing the three cops over ransom money, intention to kill Johanna Beckett and admitting to previous murders.
  • Molly Quinn as Alexis Castle, Castle's teenaged daughter by his first wife Meredith. Alexis is unusually intelligent for her age, and is often more mature and responsible than her father. She is very bright and enjoys school. A running gag in the series has her begging Castle to force her to study and do her homework instead of "fun" activities like parties and overnight trips. Her social and interpersonal issues often parallel some aspect of the case Castle and Beckett are investigating, and Castle sometimes asks her opinion on a killer's motivation.[7]
  • Susan Sullivan as Martha Rodgers, Castle's mother, an actress on and off Broadway. She lives with him and Alexis after an ex-husband has run off with her life savings.[8] She helps her son through the difficulties of raising a teenaged girl (even one as mature as Alexis) but also has an active social life of her own. She is free-spirited and often gives Castle valuable advice (which he seldom follows) regarding Beckett.
  • Penny Johnson Jerald as Captain Victoria Gates (Season 4–), Captain Montgomery's replacement. Formerly with Internal Affairs, Captain Gates (referred to by some as "Iron Gates") is more interested in career advancement, and takes a dimmer view than her predecessor of the Beckett-Castle dynamic.[9] Strict and unforgiving, she loathes Castle's presence at the precinct, regarding him as an unprofessional, distracting and juvenile presence who interferes with the way she would prefer to run things. As the series progresses, she comes to tolerate Castle, and even grudgingly accepts that he is useful for solving cases. Though her outright hostility fades, she is nonetheless strictly by the book, and still willing to beat Castle with it when needed. She recently had to remove Castle from working with the NYPD because of the DA getting to know about his friendship with a mob boss, but she then reinstates Castle after he rescues Beckett from Dr. Nieman and 3XK.

Recurring characters

  • Monet Mazur as Gina Cowell, Castle's publisher and second ex-wife. Their personal relationship has been known to conflict with their professional one, with unfortunate results.
  • Victor Webster as Dr. Josh Davidson, Beckett's motorcycle-riding, cardiac-surgeon ex-boyfriend whom Castle repeatedly refers to as "motorcycle boy" and "doctor motorcycle boy".
  • Ken Baumann as Ashley, Alexis' steady boyfriend. Alexis broke up with him after Castle and his mother were involved in a hostage situation and Ashley was nowhere to be found to help her through it.
  • Bailey Chase as Will Sorenson, an FBI agent and Beckett's ex-boyfriend who wants to reconcile but immediately recognizes Beckett's attraction to Castle.
  • Michael Dorn as Dr. Carver Burke, a psychiatrist who helps Beckett overcome her shooting and also deal with her various hidden emotions.
  • Geoff Pierson as Mr. Smith, a friend of Captain Montgomery, who holds evidence that keeps the murderer of Beckett's mother away from Beckett; Smith occasionally acts through Castle to protect Beckett. He appeared to have been killed in "After the Storm," but in the episode "Veritas," it is revealed that he faked his death in order to operate in the shadows.
  • Darby Stanchfield as Meredith, an actress who was Castle's first wife and Alexis's mother. She is regularly portrayed as self-centered and dramatic.
  • Michael Mosley as Jerry Tyson/the Triple Killer (3XK), a methodical and meticulous serial killer who returns to New York every few years to terrorize the city. After being identified by Castle, Tyson turns his attentions to the 12th Precinct, variously targeting members of Beckett's team. He is shot and presumed to be dead in "Probable Cause" though Castle expresses doubts about it. It is suggested that he is still alive during the events of "Disciple", but the episode also explores the implications of his death, which leave Castle and Beckett disturbed.
  • Jack Coleman as William Bracken, a popular and charismatic Senator representing the State of New York with ambitions of one day becoming President. He presents himself falsely as an honest man looking out for special interests, but is revealed in the season 5 premiere to be highly corrupt and the person directly responsible for having Johanna Beckett murdered.
  • James Brolin as a CIA deep-cover operative whose real name remains unknown; instead he has gone by aliases such as "Jackson Hunt" and "Anderson Cross." He is treated as a near-mythical figure in the intelligence community, and is revealed to be Castle's father in the two-part episode "Target" and "Hunt." Despite the loneliness of his profession, he has maintained indirect contact with his son.
  • Maya Stojan as Tory Ellis, an NYPD Tech officer who assists on Beckett's cases.
  • Phil LaMarr as Dr. Holloway, a psychiatrist who evaluates the mental stability of suspects.
  • Myko Oliver as Pi, Alexis's boyfriend at the beginning of season 6, with whom she shares an apartment for a while (much to Castle's dismay.)

Real-life writers Stephen J. Cannell, James Patterson, Dennis Lehane, and Michael Connelly appear as themselves during periodic games of poker at Castle's apartment. Typically, they discuss Castle and Beckett's current case and tease Castle about his involvement with Beckett. On September 30, 2010, Cannell died in real life. The characters kept an empty chair at the poker table in his honor for a year.

Tie-in works

In the series, Castle writes a novel titled Heat Wave. As a tie-in, ABC and sister publisher Hyperion Books released that novel as a real book (ISBN 978-1-4013-2382-0) with "Richard Castle" as the author. It is entirely in character from the dedication to the acknowledgments, although the latter mentions the principal cast and the show's creators by first name.[70] ABC released the first half of the novel in weekly increments on their website.[71] The complete novel was published in September 2009 as a hardcover, debuting at No. 26 on The New York Times Best Seller list.[72] In its fourth week on the list, Heat Wave broke into the top 10 at #6.[73] Heat Wave was released in paperback (ISBN 978-1-4013-1040-0) on July 27, 2010 and debuted at No. 34 on The New York Times bestseller Paperback Mass-Market list.[74] It once again appeared on The New York Times bestseller list on May 27, 2012 at #19.[75]

Naked Heat (ISBN 978-1-4013-2402-5), the sequel to Heat Wave, was released on September 28, 2010.[76] Naked Heat debuted at No. 7 on the New York Times Best Seller list.[77] As they did with Heat Wave, ABC released a series of the early chapters online as a promotional tool.[78]

A third novel, titled Heat Rises (ISBN 978-1-4013-2443-8), was released on September 20, 2011.[79] It debuted at No. 1 on The New York Times bestseller list on October 9, 2011[80][81] and at No. 5 on the USA TODAY Best-Selling Books list.[82]

The season three finale introduced a graphic novel based on Castle's previous novel character, Derrick Storm. Castle: Richard Castle's Deadly Storm was published by Marvel Comics on September 28, 2011.[83] It debuted at No. 3 on The New York Times bestseller list on October 16, 2011.[84]

A fourth novel, titled Frozen Heat (ISBN 978-1-4013-2444-5), was released on September 11, 2012,[85] and debuted on The New York Times bestseller list at No. 7 on September 23, 2012.[86]

The fifth Nikki Heat novel Deadly Heat was released September 17, 2013 and debuted at No. 8 on the New York Times bestseller list.[87]

Raging Heat, the sixth novel, was released on September 16, 2014. It landed on No. 6 on the New York Times Hardcover Fiction bestseller list[88] and on No. 17 on New York Times Combined Print and E-Book Fiction bestseller list[89] on October 05, 2014.
