The Boys is heading into its final season with a Supernatural reunion featuring Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins

The two actors will appear in The Boys alongside their former co-star Jensen Ackles. There is no word on whether a 1967 Chevrolet Impala will be involved.

Supernatural actors Jared Padalecki (pictured, right) and Misha Collins (pictured, left) reunite with their former co-star Jensen Ackles — as well as series creator and The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke — in the Prime Video series. Padalecki and Collins will both guest star in season five, but details are being kept under wraps for now. However, the Amazon streamer did note that the trio will share scenes.

Kripke said last year that The Boys would end with its fifth season, in keeping with his original plan for the series. “The show is a serialized story that is about Butcher and Homelander slowly crashing into each other, and the show doesn’t work without either of those,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. “So, you just can’t keep that going on forever, you have to let them smash into each other.”

Ackles plays Soldier Boy on The Boys and will star in a prequel series called Vought Rising alongside Aya Cash.

After Supernatural, Padalecki starred on The CW's Walker for four seasons and is currently developing a CBS medical drama with Walker showrunner Anna Fricke.

Collins' recent roles include The CW's Gotham Knights and Amazon's feature film Encounter.

I am very curious about the big clash between Homelander and Butcher. Butcher who has little time left because of his fatal illness and will probably do everything to defeat Homelander. Also curious about the further development between Homelander and his son Ryan. Season 4 showed how Homelander increasingly gains control over Ryan and tries to raise him as his successor.

What Futsudo writes :-)

And I'm also quite looking forward to Vought Rising with the return of Aya Cash as Stormfront.

And about that reunion. That's funny but since they play different characters it's questionable if they have the same chemistry as in Supernatural.

That they will play other characters is not yet known, right? At least, that is not what I read above.
Also, since Padalecki shows the Impala from Supernatural, I expect a cameo in the form of Sam and Castiel.

The second sentence of this article is literally: "There is no news whether a 1967 Chevrolet Impala will also be involved." ;-)

Anyway, Ackles plays Soldier Boy and not Dean Winchester. How the other two could play their characters from Supernatural, I don't see and I don't expect that either.
I think this Insta video is more of a joke and says nothing about who they are playing.
But maybe I'm wrong and then I'm very curious how they are going to incorporate that.

True, it's all speculation :P

There is little to speculate. All three actors plus creator Kripke worked on Supernatural, which is why there is talk of a reunion. Their roles are still being kept secret, which makes sense since they only want to tease fans a bit. They are not going to play their roles from Supernatural, that seems pointless to me. And that Chevrolet Impala in that Insta video is also just a joke, just like the things they say that they always said in Supernatural. It is actually a funny video.
