While Sam and Dean Winchester’s journey came to an end after 15 years of Supernatural Prequel series are set to launch a new adventure in 2020. The Winchesters. The new show follows Sam and Dean’s parents, John and Mary, as they hunt demons with their allies — and fall in love along the way. EP Jensen Ackles partially created the show. He also plays Dean again and narrates. Now, he’s opening up about the advice he gave to the new Winchester actors after they were cast.
Meg Donnelly (or, I guess, Drake Rodger) will continue the Winchester tradition on the new show as Mary Campbell and John Winchester. The actors may not have found it easy to be part of a franchise that’s been around for over 10 years. However, Jensen Ackles tells EWThat he has helped a few young stars. “Welcome to Supernatural”Pep talks that even included Jared Padalecki, his brother on-screen, were part of the pep talks. Ackles summarized one the candid chats he had with the actors.
There was probably some encouragement. This isn’t about a new thing. This is something that has been going on for 15 years. And you are a part of this family. There’s a large population that is very protective of the story, of these characters. You are the new stewards, and it is important to understand this weight and to treat it with respect.

The fact that Drake Rodger and Meg Donnelly received pep talks from the franchise OG is evidence that he is still protective of the series. However, their mythology will change after the new show. Fans on social media seemed a bit leery of the prequel series, since Mary and John’s origin story is a little different from what was established on Supernatural. But it is evident that all those involved in making The Winchesters are taking great care in continuing the franchise.
