The Supernaturalists
Sneak peek of Rogue's 8-page spread with the stars of Supernatural: Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki & Misha Collins. The full editorial & interview can be found in Rogue's Issue #4!
“When Jensen and I met, we thought we had the world by the balls and we found out together that we really did not. I’ve seen him fall in love, get engaged then get married and now become a father, and he’s seen me do the same. We’ve seen the same with Misha. This show’s been a wonderful opportunity to really explore so many facets of a character, but also to see each other grow and I think it’s one of the few shows that’s been able to reflect that. We’re not young boys anymore, we are fathers and husbands and friends—we’ve seen birth and death and everything in between. I think there is a little bit of that camaraderie that’s reflected on the screen.”
“We used to think that being silly onset, cracking up during a scene and that kind of thing, was being really unprofessional. We would make efforts to stop messing with each other. But now we take the time to enjoy laughing about something stupid. I think it’s really important to make each other laugh. All of us will be on set just in tears laughing way too often. We could literally put out an entire DVD package of just bloopers, it would be hours long.”
“I think that there’s something particularly resonant about our show in that it’s tapping into those timeless myth narratives, but it’s doing it in this very relatable way, with the modern dynamic that goes on between these two brothers. So the audience has, on the one hand, this epic mythology that they’re drawn to, but on the other hand, they’re seeing it through the lens of two brothers who are just trying to survive in the world. Everything is on such a huge scale in a lot of genre shows that you don’t really get an emotional impact because it doesn’t really feel like something that could happen. But I think that somehow, we got the right mix.”
