Jared Padalecki's Real Life Wife Genevieve Will Play His On-Screen Wife in CW's 'Walker'

Genevieve Padalecki has joined her real life husband Jared Padalecki in The CW’s upcoming Walker series.

The -year-old actress is set to play Emily in the show, which is based on Walker, Texas Ranger, Deadline reports.

Emily is Walker’s strong, capable and generous late wife who is brave and focused on helping the disenfranchised.

Appearing in flashbacks, Emily is a grounded and authentic hero in the Walker family.

Walker centers on Cordell Walker (Jared), a widower and father of two with his own moral code, who returns home to Austin after being undercover for two years, only to discover there’s harder work to be done at home. He’ll attempt to reconnect with his children, navigate clashes with his conservative family, and find unexpected common ground with his new partner Micki (Lindsey Morgan), while growing increasingly suspicious about the circumstances surrounding his wife’s death.

The series is set and filmed in Austin, where the Padeleckis make their home with their three children, Thomas, Austin and Odette.

Just last week, Jared started filming on the final episode of Supernatural. See the pics here…
