Mark Sheppard Recalls Jared Padalecki’s Heartwarming Reaction When He Signed Onto Walker Independence – Exclusive

Sheppard’s role must have been fate because it seems like there aren’t any CW creatives that he isn’t friends with. He told Looper, “I’m lucky enough to be great friends with Larry Teng, Seamus Kevin Fahey, Anna Frick, and a multitude of wonderful people at The CW who I’ve worked with on and off for many years. Eight years of ‘Supernatural’ makes me a little biased toward The CW family, and there’s a certain really tall person that’s involved in this that I was like, ‘I’m definitely going to get into this. [It will be] fun,'” he explained. “I got a call during the making of the pilot, and it was like, ‘Call me.’ I called Larry, and I’m like, ‘I’m in.’ He goes, ‘You don’t even know what it is.’ And I said, ‘I don’t care. It’s going to be great.'” Obviously, Sheppard must be clairvoyant.

Sheppard continued the story, adding, “He said, ‘I’m doing ‘Walker Independence.’ I’m like, ‘I know what this is. This is great.’ And he goes, ‘And we have this character, we have this centralized character and it’s one line in the pilot.’ I’m like, ‘Great.’ He goes, ‘But we’ve got this little plan. We’re going to tell you what this plan is, and this is how we’re going to do it.'” Spoiler alert: someone spoiled the plan.
