"Walker, Texas Ranger" reboot which will be lead by the Jared Padalecki will remain at CW. The network will be the final destination for reboot titled "Walker," which will be the second collaboration between Padalecki and the network; following the series "Supernatural" where he played Sam Winchester.
Padalecki will play Cordell Walker, a widowed father of two with his own moral code who returns to his home in Austin, Texas, after two years of undercover work on a high-profile case, only to discover there's more work to be done at home. He'll try to reconnect with his children, navigate clashes with his conservative family and find unexpected common ground with his new partner, one of the few women ever to serve in the Texas Rangers - while growing increasingly suspicious about the circumstances of his wife's death.
Padalecki will pick up the character originally played by Chuck Norris. Anna Fricke will be writing the show and will also serve as executive produce with Padalecki, Dan Lin, and Lindsey Liberatore. The reboot is expected to be a part of CW's 2020-21 line-up.
