Has Dean Winchester finally left for good? No, if Jensen Ackles will have his way. Right now a storm of fervor is going viral, and that’s because of the vague words Ackles spoke at a recent fan convention. He made a suggestion about coming back for a Jensen Ackles supernatural spinoff and for a very particular situation.
The ones who enjoyed The Winchesters prequel might still get lucky. In a recent interview, Jensen Ackles cited the idea of his return to the Supernatural universe as “always a possibility.” However, he poses some conditions. He wants to have “full creative control” this time. That includes the casting, the writing, and the storyline.
Could Dean Return?
During the Q&A session, he was involved in this month, Ackles said that he is definitely interested to bring Dean back, but if they manage to create the image of that role as being “deserved.” He said he doesn’t intend to “compel” anyone. This fits well with fans’ previous reaction when The Winchesters was axed after a season.
Ackles is of the opinion that the fans’ longing for Dean’s return is still palpable. “There’s always room for more story if it’s done right,” he added.
A Supernatural Universe Expanding?
The thought of jensen ackles supernatural spinoff had already been in the air. However, this is the first time he has explicitly mentioned it. Since he co-owns Chaos Machine Productions with his wife Danneel now, that idea seems to be more real today.
The unconfirmed spinoff would cover the times when Dean was in heaven — or his mysterious journey after the Supernatural finale. There are fans out there who are into the time travel or parallel universe theory.
Why Now?
The completion of Walker and Jared Padalecki’s return has made fans curious about the possibility of both stars together again. Although it is not a full-blown Supernatural reboot, a restricted series or a streaming spinoff could still turn out to be practical.
Since he is also involved in The Boys and Countdown projects, Ackles apparently keeps himself too busy at the moment. Nevertheless, his most recent statement, “Dean’s story isn’t finished,” has caused a lot of new talk on social media.
What This Means for Fans
- The Jensen Ackles Supernatural spinoff is becoming popular on the internet.
- The return could take place, but under his conditions only.
- A new series could also follow Dean’s life after death or different realities.
- Ackles is referring to fans who still “make it possible for him to continue Dean’s story.”
This is a piece of fresh information that is driven by curiosity and has indeed left the fans hopeful of the revival of the Supernatural legacy — with Ackles’ guidance.
