“But I DO have an understudy,” James Van Der Beek revealed.
“A ridiculously overqualified replacement who would have been #1 on my wishlist (had I ever dreamed he’d be available).”
He added that this stand-in is “someone my kids would definitely consider an upgrade over me.”

If he had a alternative, he’d be there
“I will be beaming and receiving from afar in a bed in Austin,” James Van Der Beek promised.
That bit seems to be a reference to Lin-Manuel Miranda’s position on Percy Jackson And The Olympians, the place he portrays a god.
We’re, in fact, crushed that Van Der Beek is sick. Battling a abdomen bug on prime of his ongoing most cancers battle is extra critical than a virus alone. We want him a speedy and full restoration from all that ails him.
