After all, Eric Kripke and Jensen Ackles — and maybe at some point Jared Padalecki — are removed from the one hyperlinks between “Supernatural” and “The Boys.” In actual fact, so many “Supernatural” actors flip up on “The Boys” that the superhero present nearly counts as a stealthy reunion occasion. Talking of stealth, Nathan Mitchell is a enjoyable instance of this casting method. On “Supernatural,” he performs a comparatively obscure angel referred to as Kelvin, whereas on “The Boys,” he is the perpetually masked Black Noir.
Different connections between the exhibits are considerably extra seen for followers who know their lore. “The Boys” has snagged Jeffrey Dean Morgan — “Supernatural”‘s John Winchester himself — for its Season 4. Christian Keyes performs A-Prepare’s large brother, Nathan, on “The Boys” and the evil alternate-universe archangel Michael on “Supernatural.” Lesley Nicol, who performs Billy Butcher’s (Karl City) mom, can also be the evil witch Katja. A number of different actors have additionally had smaller roles in each exhibits, together with Alvina August, Kai Bradbury, Isaiah Adam, and Adrian Holmes.
Amongst all these connections, “Supernatural”‘s Jim Beaver would possibly simply take the cake for essentially the most shameless “The Boys” cameo. On “Supernatural,” he performs demon hunter Bobby Singer, and in “The Boys,” he is a secretary of protection referred to as … Robert Singer.
