The Winchester Family Business

After seeing Jared Padalecki at New York Comic Con a few weeks ago, starting his whirlwind promotional tour for Friday The 13th, plus being aware of his insane schedule in which he was to attend three fan conventions in March alone, on top of filming the final season four episodes for Supernatural, I wondered if he could actually fulfill all his lofty commitments.  It seems he can't. 

This was the message posted on the Creation Entertainment site earlier today:

February 20, 2009: We have been advised that Jared Padalecki has an unforeseen personal commitment that prevents him from attending this convention. Jared has been a great friend to Creation Entertainment and to his loyal fans and we look forward to working with him again soon, including in LA in a few weeks. While a cancellation of a star of Jared's stature is never pleasant we are working on providing the absolute very best convention we can and as such today we have announced the addition of four new guests for the convention: JIM BEAVER, CHAD LINDBERG, GABRIEL TIGERMAN, and TODD STASHWICK. We will be refunding payments to those that ordered separate Jared Photo Ops and autograph tickets early next week. We will be adding autograph tickets and photo ops for our new guests early next week as well.

I just bought a ticket to this convention, and while I'm VERY sad that I won't get to see Jared, I am thrilled to see Jim Beaver.  This will be the first con for Misha Collins as well, and I'm excited to be there for that.  So, I'm sure I speak for all Supernatural fans that we hope Jared is okay and while disappointed, we understand.
