Jared Padalecki Criticizes The CW Following 'Walker' Cancellation: 'I'm Just Being Brutally Honest'

Padalecki also opened up about possibly reteaming with Jensen Ackles and Eric Kripke on 'The Boys.'

The show was ordered straight to series in 2020, with Padalecki taking on the role of Texas Ranger Cordell Walker -- following 15 seasons hunting Supernatural's monsters as Sam Winchester. While the show performed well enough for the network to order a prequel series, Walker: Independence, in 2022, it was abruptly canceled earlier this month -- just before their fourth season finale aired. Following the resignation of longtime chairman and CEO Mark Pedowitz in October 2022, shifts in CW leadership have coincided with several significant changes to the network's programming.
