The sequel to the action TV series “Walker” is scheduled to air on October 28, 2021. The CW is preparing to release the next episodes, so it does not torment viewers with uncertainty, informing the release date in advance. There is information that new characters will appear in the new season, and the plot will move further away from the original project “Walker, Texas Ranger”, which aired from 1993 to 2005.
Plot
Austin. One day, his wife sends Cordell an SOS signal. Not understanding anything, he tries to call her, and it becomes clear from snippets of conversation that they are shooting at her. While trying to locate his wife, Cordell follows her route and finds Emily’s already lifeless body. Unable to recover from his grief, he leaves home for 11 months to work undercover.
During this time, the killer is sent to prison, but Walker is sure that it is not him. Children Arlo and Stella do not understand why their father does not deal with them. And if the son can still forgive such an act, then the daughter does not think that she should understand the father’s grief. All this time they were raised by their grandparents, but after the death of their mother, they wanted to be closer to their father.
Deciding not to waste time on a business trip anymore, Walker goes to Austin, to his parents and children. His arrival is overshadowed by the disappearance of Stella. But soon she is found at the police station, in the company of a Mexican woman. Trying to understand his daughter’s behavior, Walker makes the relationship worse and worse.
Going to work, Walker meets his future partner. Micki turns out to be an avid career woman who dreams of a promotion. She immediately warns Cordell that she will not let his strange methods ruin her reputation.
On the first day of work together, Walker punches a teenager in the face who dares to touch his wife’s memory and his own dignity. Micki is furious, but the circumstances are stronger, and the woman understands that they need to work further. But then Stella throws out another trick. While his partner goes to solve the case, Walker is forced to go in search of his daughter.
So every day he is filled with events that grow like a snowball and the ranger can no longer solve problems gradually. He has to postpone plans, put children above everything and do not forget that they, too, have lost a loved one. They cannot be ignored. And at the same time, the work requires more and more impact. What choice will Cordell make?
