The Winchesters were the first Supernatural spinoff project to formally obtain a series order after receiving the green light, much to the fans’ immense disappointment following the news of rejected spinoffs. The Winchesters is an idea that Jensen and Danneel Ackles came up with during the pandemic lockdown of 2020. It focuses on John and Mary Winchester, the parents of everyone’s favourite hunter brothers, Sam and Dean. Although they weren’t physically present for most of the first season, their impact can be felt in almost every plot.
A thorough investigation into how the hunting family came to be in this potentially fatal line of work has never been done, despite several pointers from the enigmatic Men of Letters to Mary’s hunting past. The Winchesters will add to our understanding of John and Mary’s shady and violent beginnings and perhaps provide a glimpse of the Winchester family tree’s higher branches. It’s high time we prepared for the return of our favourite family of demon-killing, vampire-slashing monster hunters since The Winchesters Season 1 has already finished filming. Let’s take a quick look at all we know about The Winchesters, the upcoming Supernatural prequel series.
The Winchesters Release date
According to Danneel Ackles’ Instagram, filming for Season 1 of The Winchesters has ended in New Orleans. The Winchesters’ debut season will air in the fall of 2022, according to the first trailer. Since then, we’ve received confirmation that the show’s October 11, 2022, The CW debut, has been set.
The cast of The Winchesters
Jensen Ackles and his wife Danneel are the creators of The Winchesters. The couple, who have closely studied the Supernatural mythos themselves, are bringing Sam and Dean’s Mom and Dad’s story to the big screen with the approval of Supernatural’s original writer, Eric Kripke. Glen Winter, who helmed the pilot episode of The Winchesters, and writer Robbie Thompson (Supernatural) also serve as executive producers. At the same time, Ackles reprises his role as Dean and serves as the series narrator. Because he was kept in the dark during the early stages of the project, Jared Padalecki has generally been mum about his role, but Misha Collins and Ruth Connell have both hinted at their return to the franchise.
The Winchesters wouldn’t be the same without Sam, so perhaps he’ll also appear in the new season. Meg Donnelly portrays a young Mary Campbell, the mother of the boys. The latter, at the age of 19, contemplates quitting the family business and living a quiet life—that is, until she has a fateful encounter with John, and her father vanishes as a result. Drake Rodger plays a young John Winchester, the father of Sam and Dean. The latter crosses paths with Mary while trying to learn more about his missing father and the secrecy surrounding the Winchester family history.
The plot of The Winchesters
The Winchesters The Winchesters explores the relationship between Sam and Dean’s parents, John Winchester and Mary Campbell, and how these two very different people come together to shape their children’s lives. The 1972 setting of the trailer shows a young John (Drake Rodger), unsure of his life’s purpose and the mystery surrounding his father’s disappearance, returning from the Vietnam War. As he humorously tries to “assist” Mary Campbell, played by Meg Donnelly, in a battle with a demon, his unexpected encounter with Mary Campbell alters his vision of the known world. After a close friend passed away, Mary had to reevaluate her profession as a hunter.
She has her problems to contend with. She is to return to her position when her father vanishes. The “missing dad” phenomenon, which also pushed Sam and Dean to cooperate at the start of Supernatural, pulls the two heroes together. One might object to the story’s discrepancy with the Supernatural canon, which states that Mary didn’t like John until they were both struck by a cupid’s arrow (very literally) and that John didn’t know anything about hunting until Mary died at the start of Supernatural. Later in The Winchesters, this can be by a scene in which an angel erases memories, a contract with a demon, or time travel.
Trailer
On May 19, 2022, the official trailer for The Winchesters was out. Beginning with narration from Dean Winchester, we learn about his parents and how they must have met as he takes notes while leaning over the family’s iconic 1967 Chevrolet Impala. View it here: The sneak peek includes various references to the first season, such as the enigmatic Men of Letters and Mary considering taking over the family hunting business. Two additional teenage hunters who weren’t in the original series join them on their mission, which includes vampires, werewolves, and demons and is well famous to fans of the well-known CW franchise. The plot of the trailer, which we will describe in the following part, may appear a little dissimilar from what Supernatural viewers are here to.
