“We promise that we will come and have a really fun panel with the whole cast,” Braff, 45, said. “We don’t want to let anyone down, especially ATX. We hope we can reschedule for the summer sometime.”

“Let’s not forget that COVID is still happening and there are so many powerful, brave people on the front lines that are fighting this pandemic,” Braff said, before concluding, “Thats it for now, but we promise to see you soon.”
