Sam (Jared Padalecki) may still be alive, but he is far from safety. In "Supernatural" season 12, he will be at the hands of the menacing Men of Letters, who clearly are not the best company to have.

Speaking to TV Line, executive producer Robert Singer said that the younger Winchester is "going through hell" during his stay with the mysterious group.

What makes this tougher for Sam come "Supernatural" season 12 is that he thinks his brother Dean (Jensen Ackles) is dead and that no one will save him from his captors.

"As far as [Sam] knows, the bomb blew up, and that's what saved the world," Singer said, with Ackles adding that Dean's helpless baby brother "has no reason to believe Dean would even be coming for him."

Of course, Sam is dead wrong as Dean will be doing what he can to get him back. According to Ackles, his character will look for his beloved bro — Bryan Mills-style.

For those who do not know, Bryan Mills is the main character on the movie franchise "Taken" played by actor Liam Neeson. The character's famous "I will find you" line will be incorporated in "Supernatural" season 12.

That being said, it looks like Dean will have the chance to communicate with the Men of Letters and negotiate with them as well. This may also pave the way to Sam knowing his brother is not gone.

Whether or not Dean's rescue mission in "Supernatural" season 12 will be inspired by the "Taken" action itself remains to be seen for now. However, Singer teased that it won't take long for Dean to get to Sam.

He said that it "doesn't take up too many episodes – we get that over with pretty quickly – but they're action-packed, and all our characters are involved."

Of course, "Supernatural" season 12 will also see Dean and Sam deal with the resurrection of their mother Mary Winchester (Samantha Smith).

"Supernatural" season 12 premieres Thursday, Oct. 13 on The CW.
