Fans of The CW series Walker have been wondering if the show has been canceled after Season 4 or renewed for more seasons. The action-crime drama series is a reboot of the ’90s show, Walker, Texas Ranger. Starring Jared Padalecki as Cordell Walker, it follows a Texas Ranger who returns home after a long undercover work assignment to find that his home life needs a lot more effort to be maintained than he had originally expected.
So has The CW pulled the plug on Walker after four seasons? Will there be more installments of the show? Here are the answers.
Has The CW’s Walker been canceled after Season 4?
Yes, The CW’s Walker has been canceled after Season 4 ahead of the season finale, which is set to premiere on June 26, 2024.
Jared Padalecki, the lead actor and executive producer of the show, recently addressed the show’s cancelation via an Instagram post, wherein he penned a heartfelt message, expressing his gratitude to fans and the cast and crew members.
“Howdy y’all. It is with a heavy heart that I share this news with you. Walker will not be airing on #CW for a fifth season,” the post reads in part. “It’s a tough piece of news to be sure, but we are SO thankful for the #WalkerFamily that has been built, both on set and off.”
Why The CW did not renew Walker for Season 5?
The CW did not renew Walker for Season 5 and canceled the series reportedly on account of high production cost.
Walker was reportedly one of the few remaining The CW shows active before Nexstar’s eventual acquisition of the television network, prior to its cancelation. As per Variety, Nexstar is more focused on unscripted and co-produced projects.
Could there be more seasons of Walker?
There are currently no plans for more seasons of Walker to be made following the series’ cancelation.
However, Walker could be revived if and when another network or streaming service picks it up and decides to continue the story. ComingSoon will provide an update if and when Walker ever gets renewed again.
