Reopening Hollywood North
Sam & Dean & “Castiel” & Adam.
Sam & Dean & real Castiel & Jack back in March.
Happy Birthday Misha Collins.
SPN Tape Ball struck again today, dressing up as Castiel so that Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, Jake Abel and a masked Supernatural crew could sing Happy Birthday to their absent friend.
I wasn’t on set today, but some of my favorite people were there along with my body double. pic.twitter.com/zkHsa28Umf

I really think this is us. You, in glee at the world unfolding in your hands and me, slightly terrified but so in for the ride. Happy Birthday, alien friend @mishacollins . I’m grateful you are here to color the world. pic.twitter.com/K0aNZkSmbn

SPN Tape Ball was there on Jensen and Jared’s first day back to set, after a five-month pandemic interruption.

Hello Sam & Dean. Bye bye pandemic beards.
Jensen & Jared had a strict 14-day quarantine in their Vancouver apartments on a arrival in Canada, with only their dogs for company.

Jake Abel was all alone in his quarantine. Or was he?

The Bunker was waiting for them.

Plus new Covid-19 safety protocols.

#SPNFamiIy Back at it & proud of WB and crew who are taking SPN safety VERY seriously! Covid-19-b-damned… If I catch it it won’t be from filming the finale of the SPN legacy! SO much love to you all ❤💚💙 #WearAMask #COVIDIDIOTS

Which makes it unsafe to accommodate fans.
#Supernatural loves its fans.
But am hearing that it’s best if you don’t try to see them on location in Vancouver for the final episodes.
Might undo Jared & Jensen’s 14-day quarantines & all the work the crew is doing to keep sets safe from #Covid19. pic.twitter.com/YZzol261W2

Episode 19 feels kind of like the season finale for 15 and episode 20 feels like the series finale — Jensen Ackles.
The scripts had to be adjusted to accommodate the pandemic and the Supernatural writers room in Los Angeles is now closed.
Five unaired episodes were completed before production of the final two episodes was suspended in March, out of coronavirus fears.
Where did we leave Supernatural?
The last Supernatural episode to air was the thirteenth episode on March 23rd, with the Winchester brothers looking for an edge against Chuck aka God.
Destiny’s Child featured Jared and Jensen’s real-life wives Genevieve Padalecki and Danneel Harris Ackles reprising their characters demon Ruby and can’t-be-trusted Sister Jo.
And ended with Jack getting his soul back and apologizing to Sam & Dean for their mother Mary’s death — “It was all my fault”. Is a restored Jack strong enough to defeat Chuck?
Who else can we expect to see in the final seven episodes?
Chuck aka God (Rob Benedict), young Sam (Christian Michael Cooper) & Dean (Paxton Singleton), God’s sister Amara/the Darkness (Emily Swallow), angel Uriel (Robert Wisdom), Sam & Dean’s half-brother Adam/Michael’s vessel (Jake Abel), and both our world and Apocalypse world Charlie (Felicia Day) are expected to make appearances.
Episode 14 – Last Holiday: Directed by Eduardo Sanchez. Shows us every holiday you want Sam & Dean to celebrate — birthdays, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas.
Episode 15 – Gimme Shelter: Directed by Matt Cohen. Castiel-centric from what we saw on location in Vancouver.
Episode 16 – Drag Me Away (From You). Directed by Amyn Kaderali. With young Sam and Dean on one of their first hunts.
Episode 17 – Unity. Directed by Catriona McKenzie. With Amara and Uriel.
Episode 18 – Despair. Directed by Richard Speight Jr. With Sam & Dean & Cas & Jack & Baby.
Episode 19 – Inherit the Earth. Directed by John Showalter. With Chuck aka God and Adam/Michael.
Episode 20 – Carry On. Directed by Robert Singer.
Supernatural’s final run of seven episodes premieres October 8th on The CW.
