Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer Eric Kripke is gonna catch ’em all. “The Boys” showrunner has slowly but surely been casting the stars of the iconic CW series “Supernatural,” which Kripke created, on his R-rated Amazon Prime Video superhero drama. And he’s got one “very big one” he’s eyeing to bring on in Season 5, even if it’s for “a single episode” — Jared Padalecki, a.k.a.

“The Boys” already had one successful spinoff with last year’s “Gen V,” so when will the next one show up? EW reports that it might take some time before Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna‘s “The Boys: Mexico” become official. But based on what showrunner Eric Kripke says about the series, it’ll be worth the wait.
