‘Supernatural’ fans rejoice — Jared Padalecki wants to reunite with Jensen Ackles…but it may take a while.
Padalecki When you talk to the collider, He addressed the rumors of a “Supernatural” reunion head-on and said he is doing his best.
“It’s not that I’m not seriously considering it. My only answer is yes,” he told Collider. “It’s timing. It’s availability.”
“Supernatural” aired for 15 seasons (and 327 episodes) on the WB and CW from 2005 to 2020.
In the series, Padalecki, 41, and Ackles, 46, played brothers Sam and Dean Winchester, who hunt demons, ghosts, monsters, and other otherworldly creatures.
“Jensen and I feel so strongly about the show that we spent 15 years together that we don’t just want to do it, we just want to do it,” Padalecki told Collider.
“We don’t want to say, ‘We have two weeks off in June.’ Let’s shoot 10 pages a day so we can create more content.”
Padalecki currently stars as Cordell Walker in the reboot of the CW series Walker, Texas Ranger, which is currently in its fourth season. He was in a car accident two years ago, but recovered from his injuries and returned to the set of Walker.
Ackles played Soldier Boy on Prime Video’s “The Boys” and also appeared for a season on ABC’s “Big Sky.”
“If ‘Supernatural’ were to return, it would be a labor of love, and we would work every hour to make sure it was true to the canon, fandom, story, and characters.” “We’re going to spend as much as possible,” Padalecki told Collider.
“So my short answer is, that’s not a consideration, the answer is yes,” he added. “I just don’t know when he’s available; I don’t know when he’s available.
“But again, my answer is yes.”
In the series finale, Dean is killed in a vampire hunt, and a montage of Sam’s life unfolds, showing him growing old and dying surrounded by his loved ones.
Padalecki was vague about how the brothers would return for the next round of “Supernatural.”
“To be honest, I don’t think about the medium it will be broadcast on,” he said. “I think about stories that I care about. Jensen and I talked about wanting to see Sam and Dean on screen again, and we were like, ‘Okay, we like this, we like this arc, we like this ending. If you think, “I like it,” do it.
“If it gets made into a movie, that would be great. It would be great if it became a limited series,” he added. “It would be great if we could turn that into a flip book and buy it on Amazon.
“But at this point, I care so much about Supernatural that I don’t care how it gets out there, as long as the story is good.”
“Supernatural” prequel spin-off “Winchesters” will air for one season on The CW (2022-2023). Set in the 1970s, it follows Sam and Dean’s parents, Mary Campbell and John Winchester, played by Meg Donnelly and Drake Rodger.
The series was narrated by Ackles as the couple’s future son Dean Winchester, but Padalecki was initially upset that he was not in Winchester.
“You. Happy for you. I wish I had found out about this in a way other than Twitter.” Padalecki tweeted “I’m looking forward to watching it, but I’m disappointed that Sam Winchester wasn’t involved at all.”
Asked by one of his 2.9 million followers if his tweet was a joke, Padalecki replied: “No. It was a joke.” it’s not. I heard it for the first time. My bones were broken. ”
After a while, Padalecki showed that He and Ackles appear to have healed their wounds, saying on social media, “We’ve talked very well, as we often do. Things are good.”
“The show is still on and there are still miles to go. We’ve traveled a lot of roads together, and sometimes those damn roads have bumps. Shock me. We will never stop. Once brothers, always brothers,” he wrote, adding the hashtag #spnfamily.
Ackles answered After a few minutes, he said, @jarpad … Don’t miss these stories. I always forgot how much time we had. And that’s nostalgic too. I know you’re busy…so am I, but you’re still my brother. I miss you, friend. ”
