Jonathan “JoJo” Fleites plays Carlos Cervantez on The CW’s upcoming Supernatural prequel The Winchesters which premieres this Tuesday, October 11. During a recent press Q&A, they were asked what it’s like to be a part of the Supernatural legacy, and Fleites’ initial response was that “it truly is an honor.”
“I am just so grateful to be a part of this legacy,” they continued. “It’s absolutely insane. I never thought I would be a part of anything like this in my life. This is the biggest surprise and shock and most amazing thing to be a part of, especially with this group of amazing artists… not to mention that I’m so proud of the inclusivity that’s involved in this show, and the diversity that we’re bringing onto this show, and the space that I’ve been given as an LGBTQ-identifying person on this show, not to mention also non-binary.”
“I just feel so supported and I feel so seen, and I am just so incredibly grateful for Jensen and for Danneel and for Robbie and everyone,” they continued. “I’m just so grateful for this time and for this opportunity, and that’s all I can really say. So, thank you so much.”
Fans can meet “Carlos” in The Winchesters “Pilot” this Tuesday on The CW. See some photos from the first episode here!
