A Sneaky Reunion of the Supernatural Trio in Gen V

Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Gen V episode 6!

Summary

Jensen Ackles and Maddie Phillips, who previously acted together in Supernatural season 14, episode 6, reunite in Gen V episode 6 in a twisted and unexpected manner.

In Gen V, Alexander Calvert makes a notable appearance as Rufus, a creepy psychic who interacts with Cate, played by Maddie Phillips. Episode 6 of Gen V is filled with stars, featuring a clever reunion of three Supernatural actors. Although The Boys consists of renowned actors, it is noteworthy that the series specifically includes actors from Supernatural, and three of them make their reunion in episode 6 of Gen V. Here's the story behind their long-awaited reunion.

Gen V has finally been released, featuring the long-awaited spin-off of Amazon Prime Video's The Boys. Season 1 of this exciting series is now available. This new installment takes a fresh approach to The Boys universe by centering around Godolkin University, a renowned institution for supes. Marie Moreau, a talented young blood-bender, is the protagonist of the show and the fortunate recipient of an invitation to attend this prestigious college. However, upon her arrival, a series of mysterious and perhaps even supernatural occurrences begin to unfold.

Gen V Episode 6 Reunites Jensen Ackles & Maddie Phillips

Jensen Ackles, known for his role as Dean Winchester in Supernatural, and Maddie Phillips, who made two appearances in the series, have finally reunited in episode 6 of Gen V. In this episode, titled "Optimism," Dean Winchester encounters Phillips' character, a librarian who is secretly a necromancer, at a library during his investigation.

They once again share the screen in episode 6 of Gen V, but this time their roles have been reversed. Phillips portrays Cate, one of the main supernatural beings in the show, while Ackles takes on the character of Soldier Boy, a fictional variant existing only within Cate's mind. The reunion takes a strange turn as Soldier Boy disturbingly recounts Cate's childhood sexual fantasies. Despite Ackles having limited screen time, it is still enjoyable to see the two Supernatural actors together again.

Gen V Also Reunites Alexander Calvert & Maddie Phillips

Phillips and Ackles reuniting is exciting, but they are not the sole Supernatural actors in the show. Alexander Calvert, who portrays Jack Kline in seasons 13-15 of Supernatural, is a prominent character. Interestingly, Calvert also shares a library scene with Ackles and Phillips in "Optimism."

In Gen V, Calvert takes on the role of Rufus, a disliked psychic who is involved with the main cast. Cate interacts with Rufus multiple times throughout the series, and the team wrongfully accuses Rufus of mind wiping them when Cate was the true culprit. There is a possibility of more Supernatural cast members appearing in future seasons of The Boys, following the trend of featuring actors such as Maddie Phillips, Jensen Ackles, and Alexander Calvert in Gen V.

New episodes of Gen V release Fridays on Amazon Prime Video.
