The CW has ordered the pilot for a 'Supernatural' prequel series narrated by Jensen Ackles.
It seems The CW isn’t done with the world of Supernatural yet. Confirmed today, the network has officially ordered a pilot for a prequel based on two of the show’s characters. Titled The Winchesters, the show will tell the love story of Mary and John Winchester, the parents of original series leads Dean and Sam Winchester. The prequel will cover how the couple met, their ensuing adventures facing the dangers of the demon-ridden world, and likely lead to the start of their family.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY “When Danneel and I formed Chaos Machine Productions, we knew the first story we wanted to tell was the story of John and Mary Winchester, or rather the Supernatural origin story,” Jensen Ackles stated in an interview with Deadline last June. “I always felt like my character, Dean, would have wanted to know more about his parents’ relationship and how it came to be. So I love the thought of having him take us on this journey.
Former Supernatural writer and co-executive producer Robbie Thompson will once again serve as writer and executive producer for the prequel. While a pilot order does not always lead to a series being greenlit, it does show The CW’s confidence in the project and belief that there are more stories to be shared. As stated throughout Supernatural, “nothing ever really ends, does it?”
