‘Walker’ is a new series that will air on The CW starting Jan. 21. The show is a reimagining of the long-running series ‘Walker, Texas Ranger.’ The series stars Jared Padalecki as Cordell Walker, a widower and father with his own moral code, who returns home to Austin, Texas after being undercover for nearly a year. Walker attempts to reconnect with his creative and thoughtful son, August (Kale Culley) and his headstrong, somewhat rebellious teenaged daughter, Stella (Violet Brinson). His brother, William “Liam” (Keegan Allen) returned home from New York and stepped in during Walker’s absence, making it all the more difficult for Walker to resume his place in the family. Walker’s new partner is Micki Ramirez (Lindsey Morgan). Jared’s real-life wife Genevieve Padalecki will play Walker’s wife, Emily, in flashbacks. As the season goes on, Walker tries to balance all the new details in his old life while growing increasingly suspicious about the circumstances surrounding his wife’s death.
