Jared Padalecki is gearing up to jump from horseback to super-powered shenanigans on *The Boys*! Yes, the 41-year-old actor, fresh off his stint as the modern-day cowboy in *Walker*, is eyeing a new gig that promises even more mayhem and mischief.
And guess what? Eric Kripke, the mastermind behind *The Boys*, has already rolled out the welcome mat. These two have a history of causing delightful chaos together from their days on *Supernatural*. It’s like the universe is saying, “Hey, let’s reunite these troublemakers!”
Kripke has made it clear he’s all for Jared joining the craziness of *The Boys*, and with *Walker* now a thing of the past, the duo has had some serious chats. Imagine their conversations: “Remember that time we unleashed Hell on Earth? Let’s do something like that, but with superheroes and a lot more explosions!”
In a recent chat about *Walker* hanging up its spurs, Jared dropped some pretty heavy hints that he’s suiting up for *The Boys’* final season on Prime Video. He said, “It’s not been written yet, but I think he was saying [the final season] doesn’t even film until 2025. So yeah, I’m going to go play in Kripke’s newest playground,” Jared told *Variety*, probably while twirling a lasso made of licorice.
“I had a great time the first time around, so I’m sure I’ll have a blast here again. I love the show. I think it’s hilarious and exciting,” he added, probably juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle.
When asked about his future plans, Jared got all sentimental (cue the tiny violins). “I love Jensen and Eric Kripke. Obviously, I’ll be indebted to [Kripke] and entangled with him forever. I met my wife because of him. I was Sam Winchester because of him. *Supernatural* happened because of him,” he continued, possibly while knitting a sweater with Eric’s face on it. “So working with him on a show that I enjoy, I’m like, ‘Yeah, when do I fly out?’ But I don’t think we would film until at least January.”
Jared Padalecki is trading in his cowboy boots for superhero spandex, and we couldn’t be more excited for the wild ride ahead. Get your popcorn ready and prepare for some epic hilarity!
