Supernatural: Bloodlines

Supernatural: Bloodlines is the upcoming Supernatural spin-off series. The backdoor pilot will air as the twentieth episode of season nine. It will explore the different hunter and monster cultures in Chicago, and how the come into conflict with each other.

Premise
It's an entirely different cast. And unlike Supernatural, which is a road show, this will take place in one place, Chicago, with a wider cast of characters. It will explore the clashing monster and human characters living in the city. We'll have main characters who are both human and monsters. That will include, families of monsters and families of hunters. It's much more of an ensemble than Supernatural.

Production
The existence of a Supernatural spin-off being developed was first made known in an interview with Robert Singer at SDCC 2013. It was later revealed that the spin-off would be centered in Chicago, and focus on clashes between hunters and monsters factions and introduce new characters. The title fo the spin-off was officially confirmed by The CW as Supernatural: Tribes on January 29, 2014, the same day the network announced their new pilot slate. Later, descriptions for the characters to be featured in the spin-off were released. On March 8, 2014, it was reported that the project had been renamed Supernatural: Bloodlines.

Andrew Dabb will pen the show, while Robert Singer will direct the series. Andrew and Robert will also co-executive produce the series, along with McG and Jeremy Carver. Eric Kripke is set to return to co-executive produce.
