Supernaturalis no stranger to faith healers.
It’s also no stranger to women named Jo.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: After 13 years, what made you finally want to join in on the fun?
DANNEEL ACKLES:Mostly the character.
[Sister Jo] is such a badass.
I was like, “Yeah, this is what I want to do.”
But this character, she’s just a badass.
So it was a no-brainer for me.
Did they write the character with you in mind?
That’s what I’ve been told.
They were like, “She’s basically you so have fun with it.”
All we know about Jo so far is that she’s a faith healer.
How would you describe her more generally as a person?
She is a businesswoman.
It’s all about business for her.
We know she finds herself in a deal with Lucifer.
Is this something she enters into willingly?
What are her thoughts on the Winchesters?
It goes back to her not really being good or bad.
She’s just going to do whatever works for her.
They’re looking for Lucifer and she’s like, “Well, I can help with that.”
So she’s not really loyal to anyone in particular but herself.
She is numero uno.
Did anything surprise you about the experience?
There was a lot of laughing, which was great.
[Laughs] But it was a lot of fun.
So fans can look forward to the gag reel.
Oh, there’s a great moment therea really good one, courtesy of me, take three.
There might’ve been some falling.
Something to look out for.
[Laughs]
