The cast and crew of the long-running series reunite for Supernatural Then and Now, a re-watch podcast hosted by Richard Speight Jr. and Rob Benedict.
The cast and crew of Supernatural will return for a re-watch podcast, titled Supernatural Then and Now.
Written by Jessica Mason, author of The Binge Watcher’s Guide to Supernatural: An Unofficial Companion, Supernatural Then and Now will be hosted by Richard Speight Jr. and Rob Benedict, who portrayed the archangel Gabriel and Chuck/God on the series, respectively. “Rob and Rich are the perfect people to do this. Not only did they play some of the series’ most iconic characters, but they’ve been stewards of the show to the fans for over a decade, hosting popular events and conventions across the country,” said Bob Singer, who served as an executive producer on Supernatural for the entirety of its 15 season run.
“We are incredibly grateful for the support the fans of Supernatural have given us over the years,” said Speight, who also served as a director on the series. “We’re excited to be a part of this special gift to the fans that will arrive just in time for Dean Winchesters’ birthday on, January 24th.” Speight also noted that “with 327 episodes, there’s a lot to untangle and so many stories to tell.”
Supernatural Then and Now will offer an inside perspective on the longest-running fantasy series on television, with cast, crew and producers appearing as guests to share behind-the-scenes stories from on-set and within the writers’ room. “This is a great way for the cast, crew and producers to continue and deepen their relationship with the fans,” said Benedict. “Even though the series has come to an end, the fans continue to be an incredibly tight and supportive community.”
The podcast will launch with two episodes on Jan. 24, with guest stars Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki, who served as co-leads on the long-running CW series as the monster-hunting brothers, Dean and Sam Winchester, respectively.
Supernatural Then and Now will also feature original music from Supernatural composers Christopher Lennertz and Tim Wynn, and episodes will be recorded at their audio company, Sonic Fuel Studios. Supernatural Then and Now will be produced by Story Mill Media, a podcast studio launched by former Fox/Legendary/NBC executive Steven Hein. “I’m very excited Rob and Rich are doing this podcast,” said Hein. “They’re both very handsome, which is great for audio.”
Created by Eric Kripke (The Boys), Supernatural came to a close in November 2020 after 15 seasons, making it The CW’s longest-running series, airing on the network from 2005 to 2020. A prequel series, titled The Winchesters, is currently in development at The CW with Jensen and Daneel Ackles serving as executive producers.
Supernatural Then and Now will be published everywhere podcasts are available. After premiering on Jan. 24, new episodes will publish every Monday.
