Prison Break Exclusive: Sarah Wayne Callies Speaks! | TV Matt'rs | 5/16/2008 New
Positively radiant (and sexy!) in a sleek minidress at Fox's upfronts after-party, Sarah Wayne Callies looked no worse for the wear, having been through such an ordeal early last season as Prison Break's Dr. Sara Tancredi. But now that Michael's love has her head on straight, what's next for the starcrossed pair? I grabbed a few minutes with Callies to get a peek at Season 4.To steal one Fox publicist's line, "It's good to see you with your head on your shoulders." That's very kind of you to say!How does it feel to be promoting the show again? Who made the first overture to get you back?I'm not sure because they called my representatives. Apparently something had been kicking around for a little while. I was actually in the process of negotiating to be on another show, and this came out of nowhere.Especially given the circumstances of Dr. Sara's exit.Especially given that I had not come out a-head in the third season. [Winks] Let's get all those jokes out of the way. But no,... read more
Prison Break Stunner: Sarah Wayne Callies Returns! | Ausiello Report | 3/27/2008
Prison Break fans, prepare to seriously lose your heads. Sarah Wayne Callies — whose rather ugly contract dispute with producers led to her apparent decapitation last October — is returning next season. Full-time. As Dr. Sara Tancredi. Head and all. Seriously.How? Why? When? WTF?! All legitimate questions. Good thing I just hung up with Mr. Answer Man (aka executive producer Matt Olmstead). So... I take it that wasn't Sara's head in that box....Matt Olmstead: Yeah, that wasn't.But initially it was supposed to be her head. What changed?Olmstead: What changed was.... once we realized that the emotional hook of Season 3 was going to be the death of Sara, when we didn't get the actress to do it, as soon as we wrote it and shot it, we realized that there was actually a way she could still be alive. Lincoln glanced at the head in the box for a split second. That could've been anyone. He wasn't about to pull it up from the hair and inspect it closely. And then we were fairly... read more
Ask Matt | 10/29/2007
I'm not even a Grey's Anatomy watcher, but it was the star power that drew me to the backdoor pilot of Private Practice. I am very disappointed in the recasting of Merrin Dungey, who I thought was just fine when she played Naomi. Audra McDonald does take things too far. As for Amy Brenneman and Paul Adelstein, they are brilliant. I too remember his creepiness on Prison Break, especially his torturing Sarah Wayne Callies last year. His hidden depth in Practice is really great. I enjoy seeing how read more
Ask Matt | 10/22/2007
What do you make of Sarah Wayne Callies' departure from Prison Break? Would a new TV series be reluctant to cast an actor who had made it difficult to wrap up a storyline on their previous show? read more
Amidst Tragedy, an Old Friend Saves the Day | Prison Break | 10/9/2007
Episode Recap: "Good Fences" (Oct. 8, 2007)Now, we all know. The unsettling secret is out.It's hard to find a felt-tip pen in a Panamanian prison.Oh, and Sara's head was in the box. Sara's head, to be clear, but not Sarah's (as in Sarah Wayne Callies). I tend to think she didn't return to work to have a cast made of her melon. Ergo, why it looked not so much like Sara but more like one of those premium "living doll" sex toys you see on HBO's Sexcetera.But Lincoln said, "Sara..." as he dared a look inside the box, so it must be her.What do we think of Lincoln's decision to spare Michael the grisly truth? Dare we call him selfish, because after all, were Mikey to know Sara is dead, he might lose the drive to escape, and thus sign LJ's death certificate. But one could argue that Michael would be even more motivated, so he could throttle Susan B. Anthony all the quicker.Instead, Michael is in full breakout-planning mode, craftily using a chintzy non-gold cross to short the juice,... read more
