Walker & Walker Independence "Launch Block" Season Trailer Released

In less than a month, fans of The CW's Walker will be getting twice their fix with the return of the Jared Padalecki-starring original series for a third season as well as the premiere of the Katherine McNamara & Matt Barr-starring prequel spinoff, Walker Independence. Now, the network was kind enough to pass along a combo teaser that offers some quick looks at what's to come… including that deadly cliffhanger that Cordell (Padalecki) found himself during the second season finale.

With both series set to hit screens on October 6th, here's a look at what's ahead for The CW's Walker and Walker Independence:

Here's a look back at the season trailer & overview for The CW's Walker: Independence, airing Thursdays beginning October 6th:

Set in the late 1800s, an origin story of The CW's current hit series "Walker", WALKER INDEPENDENCE follows Abby Walker (Katherine McNamara, "Arrow"), an affluent and tough-minded Bostonian whose husband is murdered before her eyes while on their journey out West. After crossing paths with Calian (Justin Johnson Cortez, "911: Lone Star"), a curious Apache tracker, Abby arrives in the town of Independence, Texas, where she encounters diverse and eclectic residents running from their pasts, chasing their dreams, and keeping their own secrets, including Kate Carver (Katie Findlay, "The Carrie Diaries"), an idiosyncratic burlesque dancer with perhaps too keen an interest in Abby's origins, and Kai (Lawrence Kao, "Wu Assassins"), a soulful Chinese immigrant who runs a local restaurant/laundry and offers Abby friendship without agenda.

Abby also literally runs into Hoyt Rawlins (Matt Barr, "Walker"), a slippery rogue, thief, and con artist with a dented heart of gold who quickly eyes Abby as a mark, until she turns the tables on him. In seeking justice for her husband, Abby encounters Independence's noble deputy sheriff, Augustus (Philemon Chambers, "Single All the Way"), and his new boss, Sheriff Tom Davidson (Greg Hovanessian, "Another Life"), who she has reason to believe is a very bad man indeed. Abby and Hoyt soon find themselves precariously aligned, both seeking to uncover the truth about the identity of Abby's husband's killer, and vow to save Independence – a frontier boomtown where nothing is what it seems.
