The Boys’ Final Season Is a Stealth Supernatural Reunion

Supernatural fans rejoice: the band’s getting back together on The Boys. The Prime Video series revealed the news on a post shared on X with The Boys‘ Soldier Boy, Jensen Ackles, calling for his old squad to assemble. And of course, the hail was answered by Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins. While we don’t know who they will be playing, it’s an exciting prospect to see them join Ackles on the final season of The Boys.

“Hey, Jared. We got work to do…again,” Ackles called upon his brother in the video.

“Okay. I’ll tell Misha,” Padalecki responds, tossing it to with Misha with the ’67 Impala in the background. “Misha, we got work to do.”

Collins picks up smiling and giving an “Okay!” thumbs up before adding “What are we doing?”

The trio were the beloved leads of the CW’s Supernatural, starring Ackles and Padalecki as the Winchester brothers, who get roped into the life of monster hunters like their parents before them. On their adventures they befriend Collins’ Castiel, an angel they adopt as their own.

Seeing Padalecki and Collins confirmed for The Boys‘ last season could mean so many things. Our theory is that either they will be reunited for some sort of ridiculous violence where one or more of them will die at each other’s hands or they might backdoor pilot their own spin-off in the universe. Eric Kripke—creator of both Supernatural and The Boys—recently shared that the team behind the show is working on multiple spin-offs, and they’re being “very careful and mindful about the choices we’re making and being able to defend why we’re making them.” Would you be down for a bad-guy version of the Supernatural gang?
