Supernatural Stars Reunite in The Boys' New Episode

The upcoming fifth episode of The Boys, titled "One-Shots," is set to feature a significant reunion of Supernatural stars Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins. Series creator Eric Kripke has drawn parallels between the thematic core of Supernatural and The Boys, noting that both shows explore the idea of found family and confronting challenges collectively.

While Supernatural delved deeply into biological and religious bloodlines, its narrative anchored on the Winchester brothers and their chosen family. In contrast, The Boys focuses more explicitly on a "found family" dynamic, exemplified by Hughie's relationships with Butcher and the other supe-fighting team members. Kripke's insights suggest that the fundamental message for both series is that individuals do not have to endure hardships alone.

The article also touches on a hypothetical scenario: how the Supernatural brothers might fare in The Boys' world of Vought International and supes. Fans eagerly anticipate seeing how Padalecki and Collins' characters navigate this new environment when the episode airs on Wednesday, April 28, 2026.
