Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles as Sam and Dean Winchester in Supernatural.

It hasn't been very long since Supernatural ended its run on the CW, and it didn't take much time for the network to greenlight a prequel focused on Sam and Dean's monster-hunting parents. John and Mary's tumultuous life saving people, hunting things, and eventually raising a family will be the focus of the Winchesters. According to Jensen Ackles, things won't be as simple as the show makes it out to be.

In a recent interview with TVLine, the former Dean Winchester talked about how the prequel will prove to be worthy of continuing the franchise, something the CW has struggled with over the years. He credits former Supernatural writer and fellow Winchesters' EP Robbie Thompson with helping him get onboard with this new show.

The path to the big moments that were mentioned in Supernatural won't be as simple as point A to point B. He teased that the show would explain how John didn't know about demons and monsters until his wife Mary died.

Should the show go to series, Ackles will serve as the show's narrator. The CW might give the Winchesters 20 seasons just for laughs, assuming they are around for another 20 years.
