Jared Padalecki as Cordell Walker pointing a gun in Walker season 4

Summary Walker showrunner Anne Fricke reveals the plans for James Van Der Beek's villain in the now-cancelled season 5. A reboot of the famous '90s western drama series Walker, Texas Ranger, this CW crime drama centers around the titular character, Cordell Walker, a legendary Texas Ranger who must wrangle the criminals of his hometown of Austin after spending two years away on undercover duty.

T hat whole process was so exciting. We always wanted to leave some threads for Season 5. We were going to do the cult next door. So he was supposed to be a cult leader. Ever since James Van Der Beek moved to Austin, we’ve been like, “How do we get him into the show? What can we do?” and this just seemed like the perfect thing, and we finally got him for this part.

Oh, gosh. I talked to James, and it was so last-minute. He’s a saint. I think it was truly like the day before we were shooting. It was really, really insanely last-minute, so thank God he lives there. He loved the idea of the cult leader, and I think, actually, half those clothes are his own clothes. He was super into it and super into the dynamic he would bring, and he was really into the idea of playing a fun character, an interesting character, a bad character.

Related Why The CW Has Canceled Walker After 4 Seasons The CW recently announced that it would be canceling its Western crime drama, Walker, after four seasons due to financial and licensing issues.
