You haven’t seen the last of “Supernatural” after the series finale in November 2020. In 2021. Deadline reported that “The Winchesters“, a prequel series centered on the love story of John and Mary Winchester, has been in the works for The CW. Original Supernatural star Jensen Ackles attended the world premiere of the pilot for “The Winchesters” on Oct. 9 at New York Comic Con (where POPSUGAR was on hand) and shared even more details about the show, including the lead actor (and longtime friend Ackles) who will play Mary’s father, Samuel Campbell, and whether fans can expect to see any additional familiar faces from Supernatural in the show.
The show comes from Ackles and his wife Danielle Ackles’ production company, Chaos Machine Productions. Jensen, of course, played Dean Winchester in Supernatural. Jensen and Daniel are joined by former Supernatural co-executive producer Robbie Thompson, who is set to write and co-executive produce the prequel. With the conclusion of the 15th season of Supernatural, fans suspected that the saga was far from over. “Because as we say on the show, ‘Nothing ever ends, right?'” Jensen previously told Deadline. “When Daniel and I started Chaos Machine Productions, we knew that the first story we wanted to tell was the story of John and Mary Winchester, or rather the origin story of Supernatural. I always felt that my character, Dean, would have liked to know more about his parents’ relationship and how it worked out. So I like the idea of him taking us on that journey.”
Ahead of the premiere, we’ve broken down everything we know about The Winchesters, including the plot, cast, release date, trailer and the Supernatural drama on Twitter.
