The stars of The CW's long-running drama Supernatural reflected on filming the final episodes of the series and how COVID made a production that was already full of emotions all the more difficult.
Even before COVID-19 (coronavirus), filming the final season was difficult for Jensen Ackles, who was having a difficult time processing the end of the series.
"As we were moving into the nineteenth episode, and it was like the second-to-last episode — we've only got one more after this. There were tears happening on set and there was emotion," Ackles said. "I felt that this was one of those things where I did not know how to really process all the emotions. So I just sweeping them under the rug, knowing that I was eventually going to have to deal with it. And then COVID happened and I didn't have to."
Ackles described COVID, which delayed the production of the final two episodes, as a "derailment," saying that the resumption of filming was like "gettin' the train back on the tracks." "There's a lot of precautions being taken, which I'm all for. I'm all for being safe and let's send everybody home and let's keep a very safe work environment," he noted.
However, there was still some sense of normalcy for the stars. "But, by and large, it felt like, for the most part, just going back to work," Jared Padalecki said.
Filming on the series has now wrapped, but that does not mean the experience is over for the actors.
"It felt like a long process of saying goodbye and mourning the end of the show. We have not been able to have a wrap party with extended cast and crew," Misha Collins said. "Not being able to do that, and having this truncated and restricted finish is really hard. There is something to these ritualistic celebrations of milestones that are actually important, and not being able to have that big goodbye, and also stretching it out over the course of six months, was strange."
Starring Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, and Alexander Calvert, the final episodes of Supernatural will air Thursdays on The CW. Fans looking to catch up can stream the first fourteen seasons of Supernatural on Netflix.
