Supernatural fans have a reason to cheer as a prequel to the original series titled The Winchesters is in development. Jensen Ackles is acting as co-producer with frequent Supernatural guest star and wife Danneel Ackles for the series that is already in the works at The CW. Jensen will also serve as the narrator of the series.

The series is said to highlight how the Winchester brothers' parents Mary and John Winchester got together and started living the hunter lifestyle in the first place.

According to Ackles, the show will focus on the "epic, untold love story of how John met Mary and how they put it all on the line to not only save their love, but the entire world." The show production is being handled by Supernatural parent company Warner Bros. Television alongside the Ackles' own fledgling production company Chaos Machine.

Padalecki is already starring in and executive-producing the hit show Walker, which will definitely be getting a second season soon. There is no known release date yet for The Winchesters.
