This yr not solely marks 5 years since Supernatural ended, but in addition the 20th anniversary of the long-running CW sequence. The present stays a favourite to at the present time, particularly for these with a Netflix subscription. The forged nonetheless stays shut, too, and their upcoming reunion on The Boys is proof of that. However would Supernatural ever make a return within the type of a revival? Followers have been wanting an R-rated streaming reboot, and now, Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki have shared their ideas on the matter.
Supernatural’s finale left followers divided, each with how the story ended and who was or wasn’t included. However that isn’t stopping folks from nonetheless hoping that the present would come again in a roundabout way, form, or type, and so they aren’t the one ones. Over a yr in the past, Padalecki defined how he would need the sequence to come back again, and his reply hasn’t modified whereas chatting with TV Insider about SPN’s anniversary:
We’re all quite a bit older than we had been 20 years in the past. I don’t know if I’ve 22 episodes of Supernatural in me. I believe a restricted sequence can be nice.
Contemplating Supernatural ran for 15 seasons and really probably might have gone one other 15 had the boys not determined that it was time to say goodbye, it is smart that one other full-blown present wouldn’t be on the desk. A restricted sequence offers followers simply sufficient to see what the Winchesters are as much as and what occurred following the finale, both taking the present to Heaven or to a parallel universe, like on The Winchesters.
As for what sort of format the present would get, Ackles has some concepts, and it entails a a lot grittier and R-rated model. There’s solely a lot that may be included on a community tv present. And Supernatural can be epic if it might go even tougher, and if the “Ghostfacers” episode from Season 3 is any indication, I believe Sam and Dean would like to benefit from with the ability to swear. Not solely that, however the tone can be drastically completely different, because the Dean actor defined:
I’ve thought of this as a result of we’ve been requested what the present would have appeared like had it been on a streamer. And it might’ve been completely different. It might’ve been a little bit extra R-rated. However a part of me seems like, due to what we did for thus lengthy and what the tone is, I really feel like altering that now is perhaps doing it a disservice. I might see the profit in maintaining it like a broadcast present.
Now, I would positive like to see that. Nevertheless, it’s unknown if a revival will ever occur.
It is not out of the query, although, contemplating these guys’ enthusiasm and the variety of reboots and spinoffs on TV proper now. In truth, Prison Minds: Evolution has been flourishing on Paramount+ with its NSFW change and darker narratives whereas nonetheless being the Prison Minds followers know and love. Plus, the Supernatural fandom doesn’t appear to be going away anytime quickly, so it’s at all times potential a revival will occur sooner or later.
On the very least, as beforehand talked about, Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins shall be becoming a member of Jensen Ackles on the fifth and last season of The Boys. Which means followers will be capable to see them in a extra NSFW setting, and it’ll in all probability be the exact opposite of Supernatural, however nonetheless as entertaining as ever. Filming has accomplished on The Boys, so it’s solely only a matter of time earlier than it will definitely premieres with an Amazon Prime subscription.
Within the meantime, I will be eager about what might occur on this R-rated model of Supernatural.
