September 23, 2019 Off By Michael Stagno

It’s time to cash in battling evil entities for Jared Padalecki, who will now move on to stop crime, in a starring role in the reboot of Walker, Texas Ranger.

This will mark the first new television series for Padalecki who, for the past 15 years and 327 episodes, has served as Sam Winchester, on The CW series, Supernatural.

The original Walker, Texas Ranger series, which ran from 1993-2001, starred martial arts actor Chuck Norris, as Cordell Walker, who, along with his partner, James Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr), were Texas Rangers. They were based in Dallas, but battled crime all over the ‘Lonestar State’.

No news yet on when production begins, let alone who will take on the role of trusty sidekick, Trivette, but stay tuned to Galaxtic Pop for updates!
