The Winchesters, Walker: Independence, trailer

It may feel as though The CW has cleaned house with all of the recent cancellations, but the network does have a few new shows on its schedule. The CW has released first look trailers for two of their new shows, including The Winchesters, the Supernatural prequel series.

Told from the perspective of narrator Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles), The Winchesters will tell the epic, untold love story of how John (Drake Rodger) met Mary (Meg Donnelly) and how they put it all on the line to not only save their love, but the entire world. The Winchesters is the third attempt at a Supernatural spinoff series after the backdoor pilots for Bloodlines and Wayward Sisters weren’t ordered to series. Check out the first look trailer for The Winchesters below.

John returns home from fighting in Vietnam, a mysterious encounter sparks a new mission to trace his father’s past,” reads the official synopsis. “In his journey, he crosses paths with 19-year-old demon hunter Mary, who is also searching for answers after the disappearance of her own father. Together, the two join forces with young hunter-in-training Latika (Nida Khurshid) and easygoing hunter Carlos (Jonathan “Jojo” Fleites) to uncover the hidden truths about both their families. Their investigation leads them to a rare book emporium, whose owner Ada (Demetria McKinney) takes an interest in the occult and could provide the missing pieces to their puzzle. But secrets run deep for both the Winchesters and Campbells, and despite the best efforts of John’s mother Millie (Bianca Kajlich) to protect her son from pursuing a dangerous life of demon hunting, John and Mary are both determined to work together to uphold their families’ legacies while beginning to form a family of their own.

Next up is Walker: Independence, which takes place in the late 1800s and follows Abby Walker (Katherine McNamara), an affluent Bostonian whose husband is murdered before her eyes while on their journey out West. The present-day Walker series starring Jared Padalecki is currently in the midst of its second season and has already been renewed for a third. You can check out the trailer below.

After crossing paths with Calian (Justin Johnson Cortez), a curious Apache tracker, Abby arrives in the town of Independence, Texas, where she encounters diverse and eclectic residents running from their pasts, chasing their dreams, and keeping their own secrets, including Kate Carver (Katie Findlay), an idiosyncratic burlesque dancer with perhaps too keen an interest in Abby’s origins, and Kai (Lawrence Kao), a soulful Chinese immigrant who runs a restaurant/laundry and offers Abby friendship without agenda,” reads the official synopsis. “Abby also literally runs into Hoyt Rawlins (Matt Barr), a slippery rogue, thief and con artist with a dented heart of gold who quickly eyes Abby as a mark — until she turns the tables on him. In seeking justice for her husband, Abby encounters Independence’s noble deputy sheriff, Augustus (Philemon Chambers), and his new boss, Sheriff Tom Davidson (Greg Hovanessian), who she has reason to believe is a very bad man indeed. Abby and Hoyt soon find themselves precariously aligned, both seeking to uncover the truth about the identity of Abby’s husband’s killer, and vow to save Independence – a frontier boomtown where nothing is what it seems.

Both The Winchesters and Walker: Independence will debut on The CW this fall. What did you think of the trailers? Will you be watching either series?
