It’s been just over a month Independence Walker Debuts on The CW, but the network has released a new teaser for Jared Padalecki’s upcoming prequel WalkerThis focuses on Abby Walker (Catherine McNamara)’s determination to bring justice to her murdered husband. In the trailer, which you can check out for yourself below, Abby arrives in Independence, Texas ready to take on the new mayor – the man she believes is responsible for her husband’s death.
“It’s not the West you’d expect,” McNamara previously said. “Every character is not what it seems on the surface. It has the feel and nostalgia of a Western, but it’s a very modern story with characters going through very cool real things.”
“The boundaries were really very diverse and weird, all sorts of things,” Findlay said. “You can’t often see that because history is written by white men. It’s really great to be on the cast representing more of a landscape reality at a time when so many people are coming together and struggling to survive.”
in Independence WalkerAbby Walker (McNamara), a wealthy and hard-nosed Bostonian husband is murdered in front of her during their journey west. After crossing paths with Calian (Justin Johnson-Cortez), a curious Apache tracker, Abby arrives in Independence, Texas where she meets a diverse and eclectic population escaping their pasts, chasing their dreams, and keeping their secrets, including Kate Carver (Katie Findlay), a comic dancer. Personally perhaps too interested in Abby’s origins, Kai (Lawrence Cao), a soulful Chinese immigrant who runs a local restaurant/laundry and displays Abe’s friendship without an agenda. Abby also bumps into Hoyt Rawlings (Matt Barr), a rogue slipper, thief, and con artist with a heart drenched gold, who quickly looks at Abby as a sign to turn the tables on him. In her quest for justice for her husband, Abe meets the noble Independence Police Deputy Chief, Augustus (Philemon Chambers) and his new boss, Sheriff Tom Davidson (Greg Hovannisian) who she has reason to believe is a really bad guy. Soon, Abby and Hoyt find themselves precariously aligned, and both seek to uncover the truth about the identity of Abe’s husband’s killer, and vow to save Independence – a thriving frontier town where nothing is what it seems.
Walker Independence debuted Thursday, October 6 at 8/7c on The CW.
