Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles have once again sparked excitement among fans by teasing a potential revival of the beloved series Supernatural. The stars, who portrayed Sam and Dean Winchester respectively, recently provided updates on the status of the revival plans.
During a convention appearance last month, Padalecki and Ackles hinted at discussions for the future of the franchise. Ackles confirmed that conversations were ongoing but emphasized that nothing was officially in development yet.
In a more recent convention appearance, Padalecki reiterated that while there’s no concrete progress, plans for a revival are still alive and kicking. He expressed optimism about the possibility of bringing back Supernatural, emphasizing that even if it’s not currently in active development, it’s not dead.
Padalecki also discussed his preference for Supernatural airing on The CW, citing the creative challenges and boundaries that come with network TV. He indicated a willingness to adhere to guidelines and expressed doubts about moving the show to a platform with looser restrictions.
Ackles chimed in with his thoughts on what a potential revival could entail, mentioning a desire for elevated gore rather than an increase in explicit language or nudity. He suggested that the show could explore more intense themes if it were on a platform with fewer content restrictions.
Both actors expressed excitement about the possibility of reprising their roles as Sam and Dean Winchester, with Padalecki affirming his eagerness to see the characters back on screen.
While Supernatural season 16 has not been officially confirmed, fans remain hopeful for the return of the iconic series, eagerly awaiting any further updates on its potential revival.
