Ackles, who played Soldier Boy in the Prime Video series, shared his excitement about having Padalecki and Collins join the cast. "It was like inviting my friends over to somebody else’s house for dinner," he told People. "I was like, ‘Listen, guys, don’t make me look bad. I got to stay here.’ They were amazing. I can’t wait to talk more about it because it was quite an experience.”
The actor also reflected on the enduring popularity of Supernatural, which ran for 15 seasons from 2005 to 2020.
