Hi! My name is Jared Padalecki!
I am currentlyy an actor for the amazing, fantastic, wonderful show named Supernatural which airs Wednesday nights (8pm Central) on the CW. I play Sam Winchester; the sweet, reluctant hero who joins forces with his older brother Dean (Jensen Ackles) to battle demons. Sam is a pretty awesome character.
I've also starred in the horror film “House of Wax,” opposite Chad Michael Murray and Paris Hilton. I also had a leading role in “Cry Wolf,” in which I played a precocious boarding school student who had been drawn into an elaborate “liar’s club” hoax involving a serial killer. Other feature film roles I've played include “Flight of the Phoenix,” opposite Dennis Quaid and Hugh Laurie, “New York Minute” and “Cheaper by the Dozen.”
I work alongside Misha Collins, who plays the role of an angel named Castiel on Supernatural. He's such a fantastic and amazing guy that I just had to share my love of him with the world!
This is Misha Collins:
Misha Collins stars as Castiel, the angel who pulled Dean from Hell in The CW's thriller "Supernatural." He, and others like him, are intervening in human affairs for the first time in 2000 years, because the armies of hell are on the move, and Lucifer has been released.
Collins was born in Boston, Massachusetts. Before turning to acting, he worked as an intern at the White House during the Clinton Administration in the Office of Presidential Personnel. He then moved on to become a producer and copy writer for National Public Radio on a show called "Weekly Edition." After graduation, Collins traveled the world for a year, spending several months in monastic seclusion in a monastery in Tibet.
In addition to his role on "Supernatural," Collins guest starred on "Nip/Tuck" as a prospective patient of McNamara/Troy. Other television appearances include recurring roles on "ER" and "24" and guest appearances on "CSI:NY," "NCIS," "Monk," "Close to Home" and "NYPD Blue."
On the big screen, Collins is best known for his role as serial killer Paul Bernardo in the film "Karla." We don't talk about that film though, because it's a bit screwy. Other film credits include "Par 6," "Moving Alan,' "Liberty Heights," "Girl Interrupted" and "Finding Home."
In his down time, Collins can be found outdoors kayaking, biking, running or hiking in the mountains. He also enjoys back-country snowboarding and recently took a winter trip to the Sierras where he built and slept in igloos. In addition, Collins is a published poet with works in "The Columbia Poetry Review," "The California Quarterly" and other literary journals. Collins currently resides in Los Angeles in a house he built and designed himself.
