Former EastEnders actor Adam Croasdell has branded Supernatural stars Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles “the perfect pairing”.

Croasdell, who played Dr Al on the BBC soap, will appear as the Norse god of light Baldur in an upcoming episode of the CW drama.

Speaking to Digital Spy, he said: “They are really great guys, a lot of fun and very professional.

“They are both very funny in real life… they did have us in stitches on more than one occasion! They sort of riff off each other, it’s quite interesting.”

He added: “They seem to be a perfect pairing in terms of casting, and seem to do a lot together, even getting married at around the same time! It’s an interesting scenario, but I guess that tends to happen if you like the person you’re working with and you’ve been working with them for about five years basically daily and for long hours.”

Today is Jensen’s Birthday. Happy Birthday Jensen!!

Supernatural star Jared Padalecki has reportedly married former co-star Genevieve Cortese.

According to E! Online, the actor – who plays Sam Winchester in the CW show – tied the knot with Cortese in her hometown of Sun Valley, ID, over the weekend.

A webpage that is alleged to have been leaked from their private wedding site claims that co-star Jensen Ackles (Dean Winchester) took on groomsman duties.

Padalecki and Cortese met on the set of Supernatural‘s fourth season, when Cortese joined the cast as demon Ruby. They announced their engagement in January.

A fan petition has been started online for Jensen to get the part of “Captain America”. If you want to sign it, you can  HERE.

AMONG the news that recently emerged on the Captain America movie, director Joe Johnston did give away some casting details.

He said they were looking for a “complete unknown” and also explained: “We’re testing five or six guys. The youngest is 23, the oldest is 32. Most of the guys in the war are just kids, 18 or 19, but we want to go a little bit older.”

Since those remarks, the website Big Shiny Robot has published a piece citing a source who claims to know the names of three of the candidates: Chad Michael Murray (One Tree Hill), Ryan McPartlin (Chuck) and Jensen Ackles (Supernatural).

Plenty of of fanboys are anticipating the new Justice League DVD “Crisis on Two Earths,” which premieres on Feb. 23, but that disc will also give birth to a new DC must-see home movie when the Dark Knight saga “Batman: Under the Red Hood” launches one of its first promos.

Written by Judd Winick and based on his 2005 Batman comics story line, it’s Batman versus another vigilante, Red Hood, who doesn’t mind cleaning up Gotham by leaving dead bodies in his wake. Animated guru Bruce Timm exec produces this pretty violent look into crime on the streets, and it’s directed by “Superman Doomsday” co-director Brandon Vietti, with a cavalcade of stars as voice talent. It all starts with Bruce Greenwood (“Star Trek”) as Batman, then continues with “Supernatural” star Jensen Ackles as Red Hood, Neil Patrick Harris (“How I Met Your Mother”) as Nightwing, John DiMaggio (“Futurama”) as the Joker and Jason Isaacs (the Harry Potter films) as Ra’s Al Ghul.

Next week’s Supernatural episode brings back Castiel, Anna and one very cool angel power: time travel. Unlike season 4′s “In the Beginning,” this time both Sam and Dean are traveling back in time to protect Mary and John from an assassination plot to prevent the boys from ever being born.

After coming back from the long winter break, Supernatural has been stuck in stand alone episodes about a psychiatric hospital and body swapping, so it’s good to see the show getting back to the on-going mythology.

It also means we’ll get to see young John and young Mary again, a few years after the events of “In the Beginning.” Check out these two new clips featuring the boys transporting back in time and meeting their young parents.
