Jensen Ackles – who rose to recognition as Supernatural’s Dean Winchester – joined the star-studded cast of The Boys as Solider Boy, the paragon of an ‘alpha male,’ in season 3. But out of all his friends, the one who was the most thrilled about the news was his on-screen father from the CW fantasy horror, Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Morgan and Ackles share an unshakeable bond, one which is widely known along with their bromance, of course. But when it comes to professionalism, Ackles won’t yield to even his best friend with whom he shares a matching tattoo.

With Euphoria Season 3 on a perma-hold, the regular cast members are making good use of their time away.
Today, Deadline exclusively reported that Eric Dane will star with Jensen Ackles and Jessica Camacho in the upcoming Prime Video series Countdown.
The series, a thriller, comes from former One Chicago showrunner Derek Haas.
Other Euphoria stars have been extraordinarily prolific in their downtime from Euphoria.
Zendaya, who plays Rue Bennett, has become one of the biggest stars in America thanks to her role on the show and how she uses her time away wisely.
She’s starred in the Dune series and was recently seen in Challengers, which scored at the box office and in fans’ hearts.

Exclusive: Eric Dane (Euphoria) has been tapped to star opposite Jensen Ackles and Jessica Camacho in Countdown, Prime Video’s thriller drama series from One Chicago veteran Derek Haas.
His casting shouldn’t be alarming news for Euphoria fans. According to sources, there have been some promising signs as work on Season 3 scripts continues with creator Sam Levinson. Amid a production delay, HBO in March allowed the cast to take other acting jobs.
Should the network proceed with a third season — which I hear is still targeting a start of production later this year for a 2025 debut — filming will have to be done around the schedule of cast members like Dane who have booked new gigs. That is considered challenging but doable. Since March, Dane also signed up for pan-European miniseries Kabul, which is currently in production.

Original plans called for The Flash to end with Michael Keaton's Batman in the Dceu. He'd have gone on to appear in Batgirl and Batman Beyond, likely meeting Ben Affleck's Caped Crusader in Crisis on Infinite Earths.
DC Studios scrapped all of those ideas, and the plan is to introduce a new Batman in Andy Muschietti's The Brave and the Bold. That story will revolve around Bruce Wayne training his son, Damian, as Robin, adapting elements from Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's Batman and Robin.
We still don't know who is writing the movie and, based on several comments from DC Studios co-ceo James Gunn, the Caped Crusader is still a long way from being cast in the Dcu.

As Season 4 of the Prime Video superhero series soars back to the streamer this month, showrunner Eric Kripke revealed his plans for the future of the series, which is based on the comic book of the same name.
“I am – without hyperbole – literally the worst person in history at predicting how long their show should go,” he said in the latest issue of SFX Magazine after his last show, Supernatural, lasted for 15 seasons.
“No one in the entire history of the entertainment business has been more wrong than me, giving interview after interview on how I thought Supernatural should end after five years,” added Kripke.
He reasoned, “So I would be crazy to speculate on how many seasons any show should go. I’m not going to make that same mistake again. But, yes,...

Countdown starts following a suspicious murder in broad daylight, which leads to LAPD officer Mark Meachum (Ackles) being recruited to join a secret task force of undercover agents from all branches of law enforcement to investigate. But as the truth of a more sinister plot comes into focus,...

There's something to be said for a first-season show where the struggle is real to find many negatives.
It's rare for a television series to have a perfect season, and we're certainly not going to say that Tracker Season 1 didn't have any flaws, but the show had a damn good start.
Justin Hartley was perfectly cast as reward seeker Colter Shaw, an independent man with a fractured family who devoted his life to travel, solitude, and helping to find missing people, sometimes even when they didn't necessarily want to be found.
The action drama was refreshing because it differed from the typical procedurals found everywhere else.
Tracker had cases of the week, but they were far from typical, and just the sheer fact that Colter took cases all over the country made for episodes that were wildly different from one week to the next.

Eric Kripke’s The Boys has forever changed the superhero genre as it featured an unorthodox take that was immediately appreciated by the fans. The popularity stemmed from deviating from the original concept of how superheroes should be noble and save the day. However, Kripke defenestrates that notion as he makes the heroes become villains. As a result, the show became an instant hit and the new favorite show of the viewers.

Tracker’s first season officially wrapped it all up several days ago, leaving a lot of issues for the next installment to resolve. The season finale left everyone on the hook with a huge cliffhanger concerning Colter Shaw’s family mystery, but now it seems like all the family drama won’t be the only big plot twist in the upcoming season.
With some other major characters who have been confirmed to return in season 2, someone else is also set to get back to the screen.
Following the season 1 ending that was aired on May 19, Tracker’s star Justin Hartley got candid about what fans may expect to see in the show’s next installment.
Apart from the confirmed comeback of Colter’s entire family, including his estranged and pretty suspicious brother Russell, portrayed by Jensen Ackles, Hartley also dropped another big spoiler by revealing that Billie Matalon “is definitely coming back.

For those lucky enough to have experienced this, think back to how you first managed to get your dream job. The painstaking process of gathering enough relevant experience over the years, looking for open positions, and sending out résumés to whomever will take them -- not to mention all the rejections along the way -- can turn even the best and most optimistic of us into cynical grumps. Actors, for all the glitz and glamor we see from the outside looking in, oftentimes have to suffer through similar moments of heartbreak over and over again. Not all actors, however, are Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
Season 4 of the hit Prime Video series "The Boys" is rapidly approaching and, despite some casting turnover in recent years, the stars keep bringing viewers back again and again. Last season added Jensen Ackles to its formidable roster as the superhero Soldier Boy, while past guest appearances...

Tracker’s first season officially wrapped it all up last week, as its finale left a lot to be explored in the next installment, and chances are Supernatural’s star Jensen Ackles will be back to the show once again. In season 1, the actor made an exciting and long-anticipated appearance as Colter Shaw’s estranged brother Russell whose storyline is surely not over yet.
Now that Ackles has seemingly cemented his character’s importance for everything that’s going to happen next, Tracker’s leading actor has given some sneak peeks into the production process, even revealing that getting Russell’s role was a somewhat easy thing for his co-star who just needed to free some space for it.

Jason Blum and co. are bringing back the pickaxes as they get ready to reboot the My Bloody Valentine franchise.
Freddy Krueger. Jason Voorhees. Michael Myers. Jigsaw. There’s a lot of iconic killers in horror franchises, but there’s one that might have slipped past you; Harry Warden.
Harry Warden was the slightly supernatural killer in 1981’s My Bloody Valentine and while the film never became a hit in its own time, Blumhouse is looking to reboot it as reported first by Bloody Disgusting.
My Bloody Valentine is only the latest in Blumhouse’s reboot plans. The studio, headed by Jason Blum, is also working on a new Blair Witch Project film and have previously released a remake of Fantasy Island and of course, the new Halloween and The Exorcist sequels.
My Bloody Valentine will certainly be more of a challenge. The original film took place in the fictional town of Valentine Bluffs,...

Batman: The Long Halloween had been adapted into two films that, albeit handled poorly by Warner Brothers, were still relatively well received by fans. It seems that there could be a third film to round out the trilogy, as DC has announced its follow-up to The Long Holloween, a 10-issue series by the writer of Daredevil: Yellow, Batman: Hush, and Batman: The Long Halloween, Jeph Loeb.
A still from Batman: The Long Halloween
While there are no official indications of a threequel being made to round out the Long Halloween trilogy if a film were to be made, it is most likely that the actors of the other two films will reprise their roles for the third one. This would mean that Jensen Ackles, who essays the role of Soldier Boy for Amazon’s hit R-rated superhero shoe, The Boys, can return to voice Batman.

The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke has brought several Supernatural stars over to his Prime Video superhero drama over the last few years, and now he’s got his eye on Jared Padalecki.
Given the recent cancellation of Walker, the time may finally be right for Jared Padalecki to join The Boys, even if it’s just for a single episode. “He’s been busy the last few years, so schedules haven’t worked out,” Kripke told Variety. “But now, unfortunately, [Walker] got cancelled — but the good thing is he’s free, and I feel like I have to complete my game of Supernatural Pokémon and I have my one big one — very big one — left to catch.“

Jeffrey Dean Morgan is the latest member of the "Supernatural" cast to join showrunner Eric Kripke's most recent creation: the filthy, irreverent superhero satire series "The Boys." Morgan played John Winchester, father of the demon-hunting Winchester brothers (Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki) in "Supernatural," and in "The Boys" season 4 he'll be introduced as CIA analyst Joe Kessler. There's a possibility he could even be reunited with his on-screen son, since Ackles also joined the world of "The Boys" last season as a very special boy: Soldier Boy.
This was Ackles' first time suiting up on camera as a superhero, which is actually pretty surprising given that his 15-season tenure on "Supernatural" saw him in a variety of disguises. Soldier Boy is currently taking a cryogenic nap, but after season 3 ended, Kripke told Entertainment Weekly, "I can't imagine the series ending without Soldier Boy making another appearance."

Eric Kripke is gonna catch ’em all. “The Boys” showrunner has slowly but surely been casting the stars of the iconic CW series “Supernatural,” which Kripke created, on his R-rated Amazon Prime Video superhero drama. And he’s got one “very big one” he’s eyeing to bring on in Season 5, even if it’s for “a single episode” — Jared Padalecki, a.k.a. Sam Winchester.
“He’s been busy the last few years, so schedules haven’t worked out,” Kripke told Variety in an interview Thursday, referring to Padalecki’s starring role on the CW’s “Walker,” which was canceled earlier this week after four seasons. Padalecki starred alongside Jensen Ackles on the CW’s “Supernatural” for 15 seasons, from its debut on what was then the WB in 2005 through its series finale in 2020.
“But now, unfortunately, [‘Walker’] got canceled — but the good thing is he’s free,” Kripke said.

Ever since Kevin Feige first brought up the topic of rebooting Ghost Rider, fans have been going wild with speculations.

Every show on television relies on a set of tropes that have already been explored in plays or classic literature. However, there are many creative ways to mix them up and translate them through the unique characters. Variety is what makes the show good, while repetition can easily become its downfall.
Luckily for all fans of Prime Video's The Boys, the show has managed to survive for many years, giving its creators a chance to take the story in the direction it was meant to go all along. The only problem is that Eric Kripke's creative choices so far lead the majority of viewers to believe they already know what to expect.

Eric Kripke rarely misses his shots: the man who wrote and produced Supernatural, he’s now busy working on The Boys and its spin-off Generation V.

Stephen Amell’s work in Arrow has always been highly regarded. His contribution to the Arrowverse was one that many sought out to be both entertaining and impactful. A key feature of working on shows and movies is the connections that get built not just with the cast and crew but also with the audiences. So much so that because Arrow and Supernatural were being filmed on nearby sets, Amell developed a great friendship with Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles.

If bonds outside of his own show can be so strong, then there is no need for it to be imagined how deep the bonds of every one of Arrow were. Seeing the care Amell had for his cast and crew, his death sequence should have held value beyond any other, regardless of it being part of a major crossover or not.

The plot thickens!
This may have been an hour devoid of Jensen Ackles (boo!), but the Shaw Family drama was creeping in the background of Tracker Season 1 Episode 13, as Colter headed back to a place his family used to frequent to help an old friend.
Said friend had a lot of interesting information for Colter and the audience to ponder over now that the first season of the CBS hit has come to a close.
There was much to enjoy about Tracker Season 1, as the Justin Hartley-led action drama lived up to the hype and became a bonafide hit with viewers who enjoyed the complex cases of the week and Hartley's appeal.
Was it perfect? Absolutely not.
But that's a discussion for another day and perhaps another article where we break down the season in a much larger context.

Said friend had a lot of interesting information for Colter and the audience to ponder over now that the first season of the CBS hit has come to a close.
There was much to enjoy about Tracker Season 1, as the Justin Hartley-led action drama lived up to the hype and became a bonafide hit with viewers who enjoyed the complex cases of the week and Hartley's appeal.
Was it perfect? Absolutely not.
But that's a discussion for another day and perhaps another article where we break down the season in a much larger context.
For now, let's concentrate on the finale, which saw...

Note: The following story contains spoilers from the “Tracker” Season 1 finale.
In Sunday night’s Season 1 finale of “Tracker,” Colter Shaw (Justin Hartley) learned there are even more mysteries surrounding his late father than he realized — and that everyone else in his family seems to know more about it than he does.
TheWrap spoke with Hartley before the episode premiered about what we can expect in Season 2, plus some of the unusual stats that his character racked up in Season 1.
Hartley also told us how much we can expect to see Colter’s siblings Russell (Jensen Ackles) and Dory (Melissa Roxburgh), as well as the actor’s real-life wife Sofia Pernas, who plays fellow reward-seeker Billie Matalon.
TheWrap: In the finale, we find out there’s a mysterious box with papers that belonged to Colter’s father, that his sister Dory has it for some reason — and that his father...

Tracker’s next season will surely be diving deeper into Colter Shaw’s family past as the first season’s final episodes unveil the show’s big mystery more and more.

Tracker’s first ever episode clearly showed Colter’s flashbacks about his father’s accidental death in the woods that, to everyone’s surprise, had something to do with his brother Russell with the latter allegedly pushing their father to his death.
