Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki Are Excited for Revival
Since Supernatural’s ending, there have been rumblings that the stars might be reuniting for a new season or miniseries. That’s when the producers came up with the spin-off The Winchesters in 2022, starring Jensen Ackles. However, the spin-off failed to make an impact like it’s predecessor and eventually got canceled. Although fans love the Supernatural universe, they believe the spin-off was poorly done, which led to it’s cancellation.
Thus, now that Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles who starred as brothers Sam and Dean Winchester in the original, teased the topic of Supernatural season 16, fans wonder if it is such a great idea. Although fans can’t hold back their excitement about the potential come back, there is a bit of doubt in their hearts about casting, storyline, and the show’s potential to catch up where it left off.
Putting the confusion aside, fans expressed their excitement during the discussing. Replying to fans’ Q&A, even the duo appeared similarly excited about the possibility. Even though Supernatural ended almost 3 years back, the actors do not appear to be done with their characters. And Ackles more than anyone appeared to be super excited about Supernatural’s potential comeback, despite his spinoff failing to perform well.
