In a surprising twist, “The Boys” Season 5 features a mini-reunion of “Supernatural” stars Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins in episode 5, titled “One-Shots.” The trio shares the screen in a chaotic scene typical of “The Boys,” highlighting their past camaraderie with the series’ showrunner Eric Kripke, who previously created “Supernatural.” Ackles continues his role as Soldier Boy, while Padalecki and Collins portray Mister Marathon and Malchemical, respectively. The episode sees their characters confronting Homelander, with Malchemical’s toxic gas attack and a potential alliance forming between Soldier Boy and Mister Marathon to defeat him. However, the plan falters as Soldier Boy hesitates, triggering a deadly encounter involving celebrity cameos and explosive mayhem. Although brief, this reunion plays on fans’ nostalgia, offering a nod to “Supernatural” while adding to “The Boys'” unpredictable narrative. New episodes premiere Wednesdays on Prime Video.
