    Jensen Ackles Has Same Reaction as Fans After Reading Shocking 'Supernatural' Ending

    The ‘Days of Our Lives’ actor understands why people were outraged by the shocking ending of his ‘Supernatural’ character as he also struggled with it.

    Nov 21, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Jensen Ackles “struggled” with the ending of his hit show “Supernatural” when he first read it, so understands where disgruntled viewers are coming from.
    The U.S. TV programme came to an end after 15 seasons on Thursday night (19Nov20), [SPOILER ALERT!] with Jensen’s character Dean dying as he got impaled on a piece of steel while fighting a group of vampires.
    During a chat with Entertainment Weekly, Jensen revealed he and co-star Jared Padalecki, who stars as Dean’s brother Sam in the show, learned of their characters’ fate when they visited the writers room ahead of starting production on season 15.
    “Yeah, so, during the hiatus between season 14 and 15, Jared and I went out to LA and sat down in the writers room, which I think is the first time we’ve ever done that,” he said. “It wasn’t like a brainstorming session. It was like, this is what we have, take it or leave it. And I just walked out of there kind of uneasy. I don’t know if it was just the fact that I just heard the ending of a show that had been going for 15 years and I’m just too close to it to really accept a finality to it.”
    “It certainly wasn’t settling in as easy as I kind of hoped. I struggled with it.”

    But a conversation with series creator Eric Kripke helped Jensen come to terms with the ending.
    “He just kind of put things in a perspective that really helped me kind of identify why I was having trouble with it,” he mused. “But also why it was a really great idea for an ending. And so from then on, I was kind of all in.”
    The ending caused huge shockwaves from viewers on social media, many of whom expressed their outrage after a character who had survived so much in the 15 seasons was killed in the final episode.
    “The writers are going to HELL for this! #Supernatural,” one person wrote, while another added, “jensen was so right for hating this episode we should’ve listened #supernatural.”
    A third commented, “idk wtf is going on in supernatural rn but it rlly shouldve ended at season 5 (sic).”

      AceShowbiz – “Supernatural” star Jensen Ackles is leaving the monster hunting behind to portray a superhero on hit series “The Boys”.
      The actor has been added to the cast of the Amazon show for season three, in which he will play World War II veteran Soldier Boy, a character described as “the original superhero,” who became “the first super celebrity, and a mainstay of American culture for decades.”
      The role will reunite Ackles with “Supernatural” creator Eric Kripke, who adapted “The Boys” from the comic book of the same name, and serves as showrunner and executive producer.
      Joking about Ackles’ casting in a statement, Kripke quips, “When I was a child, I had a crazy, impossible dream – to provide Jensen Ackles with gainful employment. I’m happy to say that dream has come true.”
      “Jensen is an amazing actor, an even better person, smells like warm chocolate chip cookies, and I consider him a brother.”
      “As Soldier Boy, the very first Superhero, he’ll bring so much humor, pathos, and danger to the role. I can’t wait to be on set with him again, and bring a bit of ‘Supernatural’ to ‘The Boys’.”
      Ackles is currently preparing to film the last few episodes of “Supernatural” 15th and final season, which were delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

      A production date for season three of “The Boys”, which stars Karl Urban, Jack Quaid and Chace Crawford, has yet to be revealed, but the casting news emerges ahead of the second season premiere on 4 September.
