Supernatural Cast: Where Are They Now?

There is no Supernatural without Jared Padalecki.

The definition of a perfect casting choice for his leading role as Sam Winchester, the 39-year-old Texan appeared in all 327 episodes of Supernatural. He hunted paranormal creatures, fought demons and angels, and slew all manner of unearthly beasts along the way.

Since the final episode of the hit series aired in November 2020, Padalecki has only appeared in one show, although this is in another starring role. He plays the titular character of Cordell Walker, the same role held by the legendary Chuck Norris for eight years, in Walker. On the productions of both Walker and Walker: Independence, Padalecki also serves as an executive producer, the latter of which he is in the midst of filming.

During his time as a Winchester, Jared also appeared in a number of films, such as Friday The 13th, Cry Wolf, and Christmas Cottage, while also voicing his Supernatural character in a 21-episode animated version of the sci-fi drama.

Outside of his acting duties, Jared Padalecki serves as the owner of the Austin, Texas-based '90s-themed bar Stereotype, which he opened in 2018. In 2015, he also launched his mental health campaign Always Keep Fighting, which aids those suffering with depression, addiction, suicide, and self-harm.
