On The CW’s Supernatural, Kevin Tran was a Michigan high school student with Ivy League dreams. Instead the sensitive overachiever reluctantly embraced a new destiny: as a prophet charged with translating heavenly tablets. Sadly, Kevin became a casualty of Metatron (scribe of God) desire to be the new God.

Osric Chau, the actor who portrayed Kevin Tran, quickly endeared himself to the Supernatural fandom. The actor and martial arts enthusiast is also a delightful treat to the Supernatural convention circuit.

Today, July 20 is Osric Chau’s birthday. I send my best wishes to Osric and hope that he enjoys his day with family and friends.
