The television industry is experiencing a resurgence in reboots and revivals, with popular shows from the past five years being revisited. Of these, Supernatural, which came to an end in 2020, is being sorely missed by its loyal fanbase. Actor Jared Padalecki recently expressed the possibility of a reunion, stating that timing and availability are the only factors standing in the way.
Jared Padalecki Discusses Reunion Prospects
In a recent Collider, Supernatural co-star, Jared Padalecki, hinted that a reunion might be on the horizon. While he acknowledged the inherent complexity of orchestrating such a venture, Padalecki confirmed his interest in the project. He emphasized, however, that the reunion would not be a hasty, low-calibre production, but rather be contingent on the right timing and scripting.
A Reunion Centred Around Quality
Padalecki conveyed his and his co-star’s, Jensen Ackles, commitment to the Supernatural brand. The duo is adamant about not rushing into a reunion merely out of fans’ demand. Padalecki shared, “We don’t wanna just do it, just to do it. We don’t wanna go, ‘Hey, I have two weeks off in June. Let’s go ahead and shoot 10 pages a day, just so we can have some more content.’”
Possibility Despite Prior Disagreements
Despite rumors about a reunion being quashed due to disagreements between Padalecki and Ackles over an unsuccessful Supernatural spinoff, it appears that they have put their differences aside. Padalecki suggested that if it were to return, Supernatural would be a labor of love, remaining true to its original canon, the fandom, the story, and its characters. However, he emphasized that their current schedules are a constraint.
Current Occupations of the Supernatural Stars
Until the reunion comes into fruition, Padalecki continues his acting career, featuring in the Western drama, Walker. Following his star-turning roles in Supernatural and Gilmore Girls, he continues to captivate audiences with his performances on The CW.
Wrapping Up
As the television industry welcomes the return of classic shows, the potential reunion of Supernatural stands as a beacon of hope for its extensive fanbase. As Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles value the story’s authenticity, any revival promises to be a fitting continuation of the beloved show. However, due to their current demanding schedules, a date for the reunion is yet to be set. Meanwhile, fans can follow the careers of their favorite Supernatural actors in their ongoing projects.
