Walker Season 3 & Walker Independence Series Trailers Released

Yesterday, The CW released a “Launch Block” trailer for Thursday, October 6th, when the Jared Padalecki-starring original series returns for its third season and the Katherine McNamara & Matt Barr-starring Walker Independence premieres. But this time around, each show gets its own spotlight as viewers are given a look at the rough situation Cordell (Padalecki) finds himself in during the preview for Walker. And in the preview for the spinoff prequel series, we get a better sense of Abigail’s (McNamara) sense of justice.

Now here’s a look at the Season 3 trailer for Walker, followed by a season trailer for Walker Independence:

With both series set to hit screens on October 6th, here’s a look at the “Launch Block” trailer for The CW’s Walker and Walker Independence:

Here’s a look back at the season trailer, overview, and new preview images for The CW’s Walker Independence:

Set in the late 1800s, an origin story of The CW’s current hit series “Walker”, WALKER INDEPENDENCE follows Abby Walker (Katherine McNamara, “Arrow”), an affluent and tough-minded Bostonian whose husband is murdered before her eyes while on their journey out West. After crossing paths with Calian (Justin Johnson Cortez, “911: Lone Star”), a curious Apache tracker, Abby arrives in the town of Independence, Texas, where she encounters diverse and eclectic residents running from their pasts, chasing their dreams, and keeping their own secrets, including Kate Carver (Katie Findlay, “The Carrie Diaries”), an idiosyncratic burlesque dancer with perhaps too keen an interest in Abby’s origins, and Kai (Lawrence Kao, “Wu Assassins”), a soulful Chinese immigrant who runs a local restaurant/laundry and offers Abby friendship without agenda.

Abby also literally runs into Hoyt Rawlins (Matt Barr, “Walker”), a slippery rogue, thief, and con artist with a dented heart of gold who quickly eyes Abby as a mark, until she turns the tables on him. In seeking justice for her husband, Abby encounters Independence’s noble deputy sheriff, Augustus (Philemon Chambers, “Single All the Way”), and his new boss, Sheriff Tom Davidson (Greg Hovanessian, “Another Life”), who she has reason to believe is a very bad man indeed. Abby and Hoyt soon find themselves precariously aligned, both seeking to uncover the truth about the identity of Abby’s husband’s killer, and vow to save Independence – a frontier boomtown where nothing is what it seems.

The CW’s Walker Independence is from CBS Studios with a teleplay written by Seamus Kevin Fahey from a story co-written by him and Anna Fricke of Pursued By a Bear. Both serve as executive producers along with Jared Padalecki, Dan Lin, and Lindsey Liberatore of Rideback and Laura Terry of Pursued by a Bear. Larry Teng serves as executive producer and director on the pilot.
