Fans of Jensen Ackles are in for a treat as the ‘Supernatural’ star prepares for a guest appearance on the CBS drama ‘Tracker’. Series lead Justin Hartley broke the news in an Instagram video, revealing Ackles as the “perfect casting choice” for the role of Russell Shaw – the estranged brother of Hartley’s character, Colter Shaw.
Ackles is set to appear in the May 12th episode, where Russell seeks Colter’s expert tracking skills to locate a missing Army friend. The episode promises drama and perhaps a touch of sibling rivalry as the Shaw brothers reunite.
Ackles, beloved for his iconic portrayal of Dean Winchester on ‘Supernatural’, has kept busy since the show’s conclusion. Notably, he starred as Soldier Boy in Amazon’s hit ‘The Boys’ and its spinoff ‘Gen V’, and recently joined the cast of ABC’s ‘Big Sky’. His ‘Tracker’ appearance marks a brief reunion with former CW colleague Justin Hartley.
‘Tracker’, inspired by Jeffery Deaver’s novel ‘The Never Game’, follows ex-military survivalist Colter Shaw (Hartley) as he uses his skills to unravel mysteries for civilians and law enforcement. With four episodes remaining and a second season already secured, Ackles’ guest spot adds another layer of excitement to the show’s future.
