‘Supernatural’ season 11 spoilers: Jensen Ackles to direct early episode

It is nice that we are getting a little bit closer to production season again, mostly because some details are some of your favorite shows are starting to come out! This is why we are so pleased to report something a little new when it comes to “Supernatural” today.

According to a new report from TVLine, Jensen Ackles is set to return to the director’s chair for the first episode coming in production, which is entitled “The Bad Seed.” Notice that we say “in production” because this show has been known to film an episode or two out of order early in the season, and there was confusion around the episode Jensen directed last year, as well.

Anyway, what is important here from a character perspective is that this episode will introduce a recurring player by the name of Amara, who is a potentially dangerous newcomer to Earth who has the potential to inflict a whole lot damage. She’s described by the aforementioned site as a “seductive beauty,” so let’s hope that she does not get attached to either Sam or Dean. After all, don’t these guys have enough problems in the form of the incoming darkness?

While the show has not necessarily confirmed too much yet when it comes to the cast, we’re assuming that both Mark Sheppard and Misha Collins are going to come back following that crazy cliffhanger, and join Jensen and Jared Padalecki. At this point the show is a little more of an ensemble, and we’re fine with that it reduces the load on almost everyone (except for Jensen, since he is still taking on directing duties).
