We asked the Supernatural actors to read an older version of EW in one of the set-ups that eventually led to the most meta photo of the entire shoot. Check out the end result here.

The cover shoot took place at a park about five minutes from the set in Vancouver. The photographer, Matthias Clamer, stood on a ladder in order to get the shot that made our Fall TV Preview cover.

Believe it or not, Mark Sheppard is in this shot. He's just blocked by Padalecki. The original idea for this shot was for Ackles to cut the pie with the demon knife. What it became ... was this.
