Jensen Ackles has busy these days, going from the fifth and closing season of The Boys to his new Prime present, Countdown, which is airing on the 2025 TV schedule. On high of that, he has Tracker Season 3 on his plate in addition to the upcoming The Boys prequel, Vought Rising. Other than his skilled commitments as an actor, Ackles has been balancing mum or dad duties with spouse Danneel Ackles, with whom he shares three children. As Ackles’ eldest daughter, Justice “JJ,” will get older, she desires to observe Countdown or The Boys, and her pop has humorous ideas.
Having a child who is sort of a teen not solely means coping with the everyday rising pains that accompany adolescence. It additionally means a mum or dad enters murkier territory in terms of what’s applicable and inappropriate content material for his or her rising tween to observe. Jense Ackles advised Folks that his oldest daughter could be very keen to observe Countdown, and it seems like he’ll solely be capable to deny his 12-year-old’s request however a lot longer:
She is begging me to observe it, so I’d let her. I may need to skip some components. I feel she is likely to be on the cusp of watching Supernatural.
Truthfully, proven fact that his daughter is wanting to observe Countdown is fairly nice, however what I additionally discover humorous is that Ackles is seemingly getting near caving. I can’t blame J.J. for her enthusiasm, although, as a result of Countdown is nice. Alternatively, I can see Jensen’s hesitation, although, given he does carry out some intense stunts on the present. Supernatural, however, can range in terms of how scary or mature it is content material is. (If there ever is an R-rated revival sometime, nonetheless, that is likely to be a unique story.)
Talking of R-rated, Ackles already is aware of that his daughter is just not getting wherever close to The Boys, which could be very raunchy and racy as could be. Even at 28, I’m nonetheless a bit not sure of among the stuff that comes throughout my display screen after I watch the collection. In terms of his daughter watching the wild, comedian ebook adaptation, Ackles made his place humorously clear:
I don’t ever need her watching. Perhaps when she’s in her 30s.
The Boys could be very intense, and it is completely not for youngsters. In any case, episodes have included an octopus lover storyline, an enormous penis prop and loads of different raunchy scenes which might be simply too absurd to call. There’s additionally the entire “Herogasm” plot, so it is smart that Ackles desires his daughter to keep away from the collection for so long as humanly doable.
No less than Jensen Ackles would possibly quickly give in to Countdown, which is unquestionably a extra age-appropriate than The Boys. A part of me additionally looks like if the actor does not permit it, his daughter would possibly discover her personal method to watch it. I am personally excited for a time at which J.J. will probably be sufficiently old to observe all of his previous work whether or not it’s scary, action-packed or raunchy.
Stream Countdown and The Boys now utilizing a Prime Video subscription. Whereas they will not be optimum choices for younger youngsters, numerous adults will certainly get a kick out of the reveals.
