Jared Padalecki has officially arrived in Toronto, marking an exciting moment for fans eagerly anticipating his role in the fifth and final season of The Boys. Taking to Instagram, Padalecki shared an aerial shot of the city, confirming his presence in Canada, where he will reunite with Supernatural creator Eric Kripke. This news brings fans closer to understanding when his character will make an appearance in the highly anticipated season.
Since late last year, the cast and crew of Prime Video’s hit series have been hard at work filming the final season. Given the production timeline, it seems likely that Padalecki’s role—or possible cameo—will appear towards the latter part of the season, as filming is nearing its conclusion. While his character details remain under wraps, fans are hopeful for a full Supernatural reunion, which could see him and Misha Collins share the screen with Jensen Ackles’ Soldier Boy.
Padalecki captioned his Instagram post with a nostalgic nod to the city, writing:
“Good to see you again, Toronto…
Haven’t seen you in a New York Minute…
Hope you keep me busy up here. #theboys”

His return to Canada is a significant one, as he spent nearly 15 years filming Supernatural in Vancouver. While Toronto is quite a distance from his former filming location, the country remains a familiar setting for the actor.
What to Expect From Jared Padalecki’s Appearance in The Boys
Although details about Padalecki’s role remain undisclosed, it’s likely that Kripke has something exciting in store for both him and Collins. The actor previously expressed interest in joining the show’s grand finale, emphasizing his desire to be physically prepared for the role. With his series Walker recently canceled by The CW after four seasons, his schedule opened up, making this long-anticipated collaboration possible.
Despite his confirmed involvement, Padalecki himself remains in the dark about specific plot details. Speaking on the subject, he recently shared:
“I don’t know what we’re doing. I don’t know if we like, bump into each other. I don’t know much about it. They’re still trying to write and figure out who’s gonna be there.”
Now that Padalecki has touched down in Toronto, fans eagerly await further updates as he begins work on The Boys Season 5. In the meantime, viewers can catch up on the first four seasons, streaming now on Prime Video.
