  • VIDEO: HawthoRNe's Michael Vartan Shares an Alias Confession | Today's News: Our Take | 6/16/2009

    Another medical drama, you say? Michael Vartan promises that TNT's HawthoRNe (premiering Tuesday at 9 pm/ET) offers something different.

    "There are a lot of medical series out there," the Alias alum acknowledges in his TVGuide.com video Q&A. "But never has one told the story from the nurses' perspective."

    TNT's new drama stars Jada Pinkett Smith as chief nurse Christina Hawthorne and Vartan as Tom Wakefield, the chief of surgery with whom she will butt heads, again and again. Vartan, though, couldn't ask for a livelier scene partner.

    "She's amazing," he raves of Pinkett Smith, who also serves as an executive producer. "I really trust her creative vision."

  • The Joy of Sets: Alias Alum Battles a New Beast! | DVD News | 8/13/2008
    He’s one of the nicest guys in Hollywood and it’s been biting him on the butt. But now, Alias alum Michael Vartan is getting his grit on in the ferociously entertaining Rogue as a travel writer terrorized by a monster crocodile while stranded with an Australian tour group. And trust me, this one is sharper than your average when-animals-attack flick. —Damian HolbrookTVGuide.com: Based on the DVD’s cover, with the giant crocodile jaws, you think we’re looking at another Anaconda. But this has a very Hitchcockian feel to it.Michael Vartan: Yeah, that’s Greg Mclean, the director, who’s such an interesting guy, such a talented, fun guy to work with. You know, something as simple as the fact that my character and Radha Mitchell [playing river tour guide Kate Ryan] never make out seconds before impending doom—which happens in every Hollywood horror film—we’re about to be eaten by a 15-foot crocodile and you still have time to make out?

  • Mega Buzz on Bones, Ghost Whisperer, CSI & More! | Today's News: Our Take | 7/23/2008
    Senior editors Matt Webb Mitovich and Mickey O'Connor answer your questions!Can you confirm the Bones gossip that there will be a kiss between our favorite non-couple in the Season 4 episode "Crank in the Shaft"? — MagaliMickey: I can neither confirm nor deny the buzz — else risk penalty of death — but I will cryptically say this: It's best not to focus on this one episode in particular. There are lots of surprises planned for this season.Do you have any scoop on Ghost Whisperer? I heard that David Conrad (Jim) is leaving the show. Is it true? — ZachMatt: Everywhere I turned, your buzz on David/Melinda's hubby was met with people-in-the-know exclaiming, "Hogwash!" (I mean, didn't Close to Home already make that mistake?) As for other scoop.... Did you know that the gorgeous brunette from She's All That is buds with the gorgeous brunette from Can't Hardly Wait? 'Tis true — on Ghost Whisperer, at least. Rachael Leigh Cook will be guesting as a former(and appa... read more
  • From CIA to CEO: Alias' Michael Vartan Takes Some Big Shots | Today's News: Our Take | 9/27/2007
    Michael Vartan is suiting up. As AmeriMart CEO James Walker on the new ABC series Big Shots (premiering tonight at 10 pm/ET), he doffs his secret-agent gear in favor of tailored suits as he contends not with rogue spies but with ruthless bosses, an unfaithful wife and his irrepressible alpha-male pals (played by The Practice's Dylan McDermott, West Wing's Josh Malina and funnyman Christopher Titus). Think of it as "Tons of Testosterone and the City." TVGuide.com invited Vartan to clear the air about his "controversial" new show. Plus: The Alias wish that went unfulfilled. TVGuide.com: A foursome of well-off guys sitting around talking about the sorts of things guys talk about... is Big Shots as bold, even daring, a TV venture as some are making it out to be?Michael Vartan: I don’t think it is. The truth of the matter is, they're not talking about women the way men really talk about women, and thatR read more
