A Look Back at 'Alias' and Its Impact
'Alias' originally aired on ABC from 2001 to 2006, running for five thrilling seasons. Created by the legendary J.J. Abrams, the series followed CIA officer Sydney Bristow as she navigated the dangerous world of espionage. Jennifer's portrayal of Sydney earned her widespread acclaim, including a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Television Series Drama in 2002.
Fast forward to today, and fans are wondering if Jennifer would ever consider returning to the role that made her a household name. In a candid conversation on 'The View' in November 2023, Jennifer expressed her excitement at the idea of an 'Alias' reboot. "Oh my gosh, would that be the most fun ever? That would be so fun," she said, clearly enthusiastic about the possibility.
Will J.J. Abrams Be On Board?
However, Jennifer emphasized that the decision ultimately lies with the show's creator, J.J. Abrams. "You know, that’s really, that’s up to J.J. Nobody has ever really brought it up," she explained. While no official plans for a reboot have been announced, Jennifer remains optimistic about the idea. "Sign me up," she told The Hollywood Reporter in March 2021, showing her willingness to reunite with her former co-stars.
Other notable cast members of 'Alias' include Michael Vartan, Bradley Cooper, Merrin Dungey, and Carl Lumbly. Jennifer shared that the cast members remain close friends, often spending time together outside of work. "Bradley, Victor, and Ron were just together — they were seeing 'Maestro,' which is such an amazing movie," she revealed. "I see Victor and Ron all the time. So we’re all very, very close."
What’s Next for the 'Alias' Cast?
While fans eagerly await news of a possible reboot, the 'Alias' cast continues to thrive in their respective careers. Bradley Cooper, who earned two Oscar nominations for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay for 'Maestro,' recently celebrated the success of his biographical film about Leonard Bernstein and Felicia Montealegre. Jennifer even hosted a special screening of the film at the David Geffen Theater at The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles in November 2023, showing her unwavering support for her former co-star.
