SUPERNATURAL's Jared Padalecki to Star in Texas Medical Drama at CBS
Supernatural star Jared Padalecki is re-teaming with the Walker executive producer and showrunner Anna Fricke for a new drama series project for CBS.
The series is a medical drama set in Texas and Padalecki will be playing a doctor. It’s explained that, “Unlike most medical dramas, which take place at big, urban hospitals, the Fricke/Padalecki project spotlights rural medicine, which is rarely seen on TV.”
The story centers on “a headstrong, devoted country doctor (Padalecki) who practices his unique style of improvisational medicine alongside his new protégé, a young doctor running from her past, as they operate a mobile clinic and heal the bodies and souls of their underserved community in the medical desert of rural Texas.”
Padalecki will also serve as an executive producer on the series along with Fricke and Laura Terry. Padalecki also has other projects in development at CBS Studios under his first-look deal.
