'The Boys' Jensen Ackles Teases New Series ‘Countdown' Fans Won't Want to Miss
The Boys has led to multiple television and movie roles for the stars of the hit show, although most of them had lengthy resumes before the popular series. However, the emergence of one popular character went so well that it led to a spinoff series for Jensen Ackles. Ackles, who portrays Soldier Boy in The Boys, will be a centerpiece of the upcoming spinoff Vought Rising, which already has plenty of intrigue surrounding it. Along with that series, Ackles is also a headliner for another upcoming Amazon Prime Video show, Countdown. The new crime series is set to be released on June 25, with an impressive roster featuring Jessica Camacho, Eric Dane and Elliot Knight, among others. Ahead of the show's release, Ackles spoke to TV Insider and hyped up the series while also explaining what initially drew him to the project. "Then I got a clear sense of what he wanted to do. I was like, 'Oh, this is not only in my wheelhouse, it's the stuff I grew up being attracted to,'" Ackles said of the show Countdown. The Boys star also had high praise for the rapport between the characters in the show, stating there's a "disgusting amount of chemistry." "You really get a sense of who these people are. Not just together as the team, but individually," Ackles added. "That lets the audience invest in the characters and not just the was a disgusting amount of chemistry that was formed very quickly off-set that lends itself to on-set chemistry."It's high praise from Ackles, and showrunner Derek Haas explained that while many crime shows in previous years have embraced the "dark" aspect of detectives, Countdown will be the opposite. Haas described it as classic popcorn entertainment. "The last 20 years of television—not in a bad way—[has embraced] the sort of dark sensibility where if you have a detective, it's like they're so haunted by the job, they drink and all of these things,' assesses Haas. As TV Insider explained of Haas's assessment: "This new series, he says, is the opposite: a classic popcorn entertainment with cheeky heroes, smart dialogue, and practical stunts galore." "I just like the fun vibe of those old movies," Haas said. Fans of Ackles' work should be excited about what's ahead for the man many know as Soldier Boy, and they should expect to see a lot of him in the coming years.'The Boys' Jensen Ackles Teases New Series 'Countdown' Fans Won't Want to Miss first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 16, 2025

'The Boys' Jensen Ackles Excited for Reunion With ‘Supernatural' Co-Star in Season 5
When the 15-season run of the popular series Supernatural came to a close, many fans were disappointed for several reasons. One was that the duo of Jensen Ackles (Dean Winchester) and Jared Padalecki (Sam) would be no more. However, Supernatural creator Eric Kripke, who also leads the way in the hit Amazon Prime Video series The Boys, ensured that wouldn't be the case. Padalecki was cast in the upcoming Season 5 of The Boys, and previously revealed to TV Insider that he would be featured in the same storyline, frame and interacting with Ackles, along with another Supernatural co-star, Misha Collins. 'It's a blast," Kripke said. "We already shot it. I will confirm that Jared, Jensen, and Misha are all in the same frame together, and in the same storyline, and interacting with each other.' While speaking with Collider about his new series, Countdown, Ackles addressed the reunion with his former co-star, Padalecki, on The Boys, and the excitement about working together again was obvious. 'There's a reason he and I did that show for 15 years because we truly got along, we truly enjoy working together, and we're effectively brothers in real life, too," Ackles said. "So anytime we get a chance to mix it up and do stuff, it's always a blast. He's the best. You can put us two in front of anything; we'll get the job done.' It's exciting for fans of both Supernatural and The Boys, and it goes without saying, but the rapport between Ackles and Padalecki almost certainly picked up right where it left off in 2020.'The Boys' Jensen Ackles Excited for Reunion With 'Supernatural' Co-Star in Season 5 first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 20, 2025
