Jared Padalecki pleads for Supernatural fans not to hate after he expressed shock over The Winchesters prequel spinoff

TVLine

Padalecki made it clear he wasn't joking when he tweeted he was "gutted" to learn about the spinoff from his former co-star Jensen Ackles and his wife Danneel Ackles from Twitter. And in a since-deleted tweet, Padalecki called the writer of the spinoff Robbie Thompson, a "coward," saying "what a truly awful thing you've done." But in a tweet this morning, he pleaded with Supernatural fans not to hate the people working on the spinoff. "Hey world," he tweeted. "Thank you for the love. Please PLEASE don’t send any hate or threats. I care deeply about everybody involved and would be in true misery if any of them were harmed or threatened."
