Jensen Ackles<\/a><\/strong>‘ formerSupernatural<\/em><\/a> co-stars, Jared Padalecki <\/a><\/strong>and Misha Collins<\/strong>, are joining him for the fifth and final season of The Boys<\/em>.<\/p>\n In a March 2026 interview with Entertainment Tonight<\/a><\/em>, Ackles, who started playing Soldier Boy during the third season of The Boys<\/em>, shared that he felt a bit anxious for Padalecki and Collins to film for the hit Prime Video series.<\/p>\n “I was nervous to have them on,” said Ackles during the Entertainment Tonight<\/em> interview.<\/p>\n He then clarified that he just “wanted them to do good” on The Boys<\/em> because he considers them a part of his family.<\/p>\n “We spent, you know, almost two decades together and we still see each other,” said Ackles in reference to Supernatural<\/em>‘s 15-year run. “We still do, you know, conventions together, and we still talk, you know, quite often. And I mean, we’re kind of friends for life.”<\/p>\n He then compared watching Collins and Padalecki filming their Boys <\/em>scenes to “watching your son go up to bat for the first time.” He clarified that Collins and Padalecki “did great” playing their unnamed Boys<\/em> characters.<\/p>\n “I had no reason to do that but I think it’s just a testament to the bond that we share. We had a great time,” said Ackles, who played Dean Winchester on Supernatural<\/em>, which ended in 2020.<\/p>\n Ackles also warned The Boys <\/em>fans that the scenes he shot with Collins and Padalecki were “disgusting”and “outrageous.”<\/p>\n “I think there were multiple days where we looked at each other, we’re like, ‘What are we doing?'” recalled Ackles.<\/p>\n He then noted that The Boys<\/em> is created by Eric Kripke<\/strong>, the creator of Supernatural<\/em>.<\/p>\n “We’re all used to Kripke’s universes, so it wasn’t that shocking,” said Ackles to the publication.<\/p>\n He also told Entertainment Tonight <\/em>that it took some time for Ackles, Collins, and Padalecki to act as different characters than their Supernatural<\/em> counterparts for The Boys<\/em>. As Supernatural <\/em>fans are aware, Padalecki played Dean’s brother Sam, and Collins played angel Castiel.<\/p>\n “But having us together, I would say it was weird working on camera with them, playing different characters than we’re used to playing with each other,” said Ackles during the Entertainment Tonight <\/em>interview. “And that was a little tricky. It took us a few takes to kind of shake that out, but we got there.”<\/p>\n In a June 2025 interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/a><\/em>, Ackles explained that Kripke, who left Supernatural <\/em>following its fifth season, wanted to invite Collins and Padalecki for The Boys<\/em> season 5, which premieres on April 8.<\/p>\n “Eric Kripke, who created Supernatural<\/em>, he is also the writer-showrunner of The Boys<\/em>. When he likes to work with somebody, he likes to continue working with them. And I was the benefactor of that, obviously. But then he thought, ‘Oh, what a great idea. Let’s just bring the cast back together. Splash the ratings a little bit,’ not that it needs it,” said Ackles during the June 2025 interview.<\/p>\n He also said he was looking forward to Collins and Padalecki’s scenes on The Boys<\/em> to air.<\/p>\n “It was a really good time. I can’t wait,” said the Smallville <\/a><\/em>actor in the June 2025 interview.<\/p>\n This story was originally published by Parade<\/a> on Mar 31, 2026, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
