Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer Soldier Boy’s daddy is joining “The Boys” for its fourth season — kind of. In a move that is sure to bring joy to the “Supernatural” fandom, Jeffrey Dean Morgan has been added to the cast of the Amazon superhero series for Season 4, marking yet another reunion between an alum of the long-running CW series and its creator Eric Kripke, who is now showrunner of “The Boys.” “Walking Dead” star Morgan will be a recurring guest star on the fourth season of “The Boys,” with details about his character being kept under wraps for now.

On The CW’s now-ended “Supernatural,” Morgan played John Winchester, the demon-hunting father of Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki), whom he taught the “family business” from a very early age following the death of their mother Mary (Samantha Smith) at the hands of a yellow-eyed demon in the series opening moments.

Morgan is the latest “Supernatural” star to suit up for “The Boys,” with Ackles coming in during the third season to play the villainous Soldier Boy (who had a nasty toxic-masculinity streak as a result of his relationship with a dismissive father) and Jim Beaver, who played Sam and Dean’s surrogate father Bobby Singer on “Supernatural,” having had the part of politician Robert Singer on “The Boys” since its first season.

In the case of Morgan, this casting has been a long time coming, with the actor publicly voicing his excitement about the show on Twitter back in 2020 and agreeing to Kripke’s offer to come over for Season 3 if he was available.In a heartbeat!
