Jensen posted a photo from his last days of quarantine in Toronto before starting filming his new character in The Boys. He should start filming in the next few days.
@jensenackles: “Day 12 of Quarantine. I’m finally…officially…bored with myself. I’ve read all the scripts, watched all the shows, caught up on all the movies… I’ve started to cook…oh and draw. Send help (or scotch). @theboystv”
Last month, while talking with Senator Cory Booker, Jensen revealed that the producers had to change some things in the last episodes so they could be filmed during the pandemic.
Recently, the executive producers of Supernatural, Andrew Dabb and Robert Singer, talked about what had to be changed. It does not include big spoilers!

Jensen, Jared and Robert Singer (who directed the last Supernatural episode) were interviewed by Variety, and they talked about the experience of filming the last two episodes during a pandemic.
The rules included wearing masks at all times, social distancing among the crew and enhanced sanitary procedures. Everyone was tested three times a week, according to Warner Bros. Usually, an episode takes eight days to shoot, but they filmed the two remaining episodes over nine days each to allow for delays. Their longest day was 12 hours.
As we announced, Jensen recorded a new episode for Michael Rosenbaum‘s Inside of You podcast. The podcast was published today with a video version. As you will be able to watch and hear, the podcast was recorded during the quarantine Jensen did at the beginning of August in Vancouver before starting filming the last episodes of Supernatural. During around 1 hour and a half, Jensen and his old friend talked about the pandemic and some curious topics. You can watch the video with the podcast below and some highlights of what we found more interesting. The episode can also be listened to in iTunes or Spotify.
Confirming what we posted yesterday, Jensen told Michael he will keep one of the Impalas of the show. The podcast could have brought the breaking news if it was released before the press release. Here he revealed more details. Jensen had been talking about keeping the Impala with the production for about two years and in this last year they added that to the contract. As we told you, there are several cars which were used to film the show. They offered one to Jared and at the time of the podcast Jensen did not know whether he had accepted it or not. Jensen will keep the main car, the one they call the “hero car” which, in film industry, corresponds to the one used to film close-up shots with actors. Jensen confirmed he will send it to Austin and he will add a radio and an air conditioning system, which is essential in Texas. The car will be cleaned but he will keep all the original details of the car.
He also talked about his future projects, not revealing anything related with The Boys since the podcast was recorded before the official announcement. He confirmed he is planning carefully his future projects. He does not want to do something out of what his fans are used to see, but he wants to choose interesting and challenging roles.
He revealed the origin of the Radio Company name for his band. It was inspied by Jensen’s favorite coffee shop in Austin which is called Radio Coffee and also by the fact that they wanted to create music to make you company.
While answering to a fan question, he confessed he have never seen the Harry Potter movies and he is hoping to watch them with his children when they are old enough. He has already tried to watch them with Justice Jay, who is 7 years old now, but he admitted she is still too young.
Jared is the guest of the upcoming episode of the podcast Inside of You.
