Jared Padalecki was also asked again about a Supernatural reboot and he confirmed once again that both he and Jensen Ackles want to continue playing those characters, but that he doesn’t want it to be another 15 years of Supernatural like the first run. He says he wants the reunion to be something similar to what Gilmore Girls did, where they filmed four shorter episodes.
The article I read quotes Padalecki as saying, “I’m certain I’ll put the flannel on again and play Sam Winchester.” – So, Supernatural fans, there you have it!
Lastly, there is an It prequel series in the works! It is called Welcome to Derry and will be the origin story of Pennywise. Check out this story for more details!
