In the video, Ackles serves face while addressing his followers, reminding them to tune in for the weekly installment of Countdown. After giving his Prime Video crime drama a boost, he teases the excitement to come when Tracker returns for what will be its third season this fall. In the caption, he adds, “Good to be back in action,” and gives Countdown another shoutout, adding, “Check out this week’s #Countdown … things are revealed and choices are made. Enjoy.”
Ackles first appeared as Russell Shaw in the first season of Tracker, which established his damaged relationship with his younger brother, Colter (Hartley). For years, Colter had presumed that Russell was responsible for the death of their father, but the Season 2 finale revealed that the real killer was Otto (Alex Fernandez) and that he did so at the request of Colter’s mother, Mary (Wendy Crewson). The family dynamics of the Shaw family have always been strained, but things are about to get even more dramatic when Colter undoubtedly confronts Mary with his new information at the top of Season 3. As for how Russell will re-enter the picture, we’re not totally sure how the wayward big brother will make his grand return, but hopefully he’ll be able to better patch up his relationship with Colter upon his arrival.
