Sarah Wayne Callies: FOX Made Me Quit
According to an interview in French magazine Tele Star, former Prison Break star Sarah Wayne Callies, aka Dr. Sara Tancredi, was forced to quit the show. Here is a rough translation of the interview (if the magazine is credible):
Big surprise on Prison Break. We hear that you’re leaving the show in the third season.
Yes, but I didn’t have the choice. I’m sad, but it’s just show business.
You weren’t expecting this? No, at the end of season 2 last year. I was sure I’d continue. It’s such a great adventure we achieved.
How did you know you were fired?
I don’t want to speculate too much about this. I was shocked.
Your leaving the show was a big deal. You have to tell us more!
I’ll just say this. I am sorry to let down the viewers. I have loved the support Sara Tancredi got from them. and though she was a victim of her own destiny, I liked how she made decisions by herself. But the way things ended up couldn’t have been foreseen. Again, I was deceived by the decision.
How did your fellow actors react?
They told me ‘It’s too bad. I loved working with you and good luck, we hope we can work together again.’
And Wentworth [Miller]?
We were so sad that we wouldn’t work together anymore. Wentworth is a gentleman. He’s gracious and full of class. And i learned a lot from him. But in a series like “Prison Break,” apart from Wentworth, anyone can go. When I took the role of Sara, I thought it’d be for only a year. Afterwards, I was so happy to get a second year.
If they call you back, will you accept?
Of course! I don’t have another role right now. Right now, I need to find work.
How will Sara make her exit from the series?
I don’t know. I’m not part of the team anymore and don’t have any influence on the storyline.
How is being a mom to baby Keala?
It’s a rich experience and unpredictable. You can’t plan anything. (Keala was born in July 2007.)
What projects do you currently have today? I’ll rest another month in Vancouver (Canada). Afterwards, I’ll go to California for a little bit. After that, I’d like to do theater in New York. I honed my skills on the stage and I miss it.
The Pretty speaks! (Entrevistas com Wentworth Miller)
Uma é com um reporter holandês no set da 3ª temporada (a entrevista propriamente dita é em inglês!) Podem ver o video (com varias imagens do set) no site do JENSEN.
Alguns highlights da entrevista:
Sobre o calor no set de filmagens (Dallas, Texas - sim é suposto ser o Panamá!): "É como um dia no SPA que ninguem pediu!" [Fica interessante quando saem da boca dele as palavras HOT and SWEATY -- É assim que nos gostamos, certo? xD].
Sobre o seu tempo livre: "O fim-de-semana é bastante sossegado. É um bocado aborrecido. Passo muito tempo a fazer sestas e a recarregar baterias".
Sobre a sua repentina popularidade: "Houve alguma luta. Houve alturas em que eu não estava certo de como ia pagar a renda, ou pôr comida na mesa (...) Aconteceu quando era suposto acontecer, quando eu estava preparado para isso".
Sobre o seu casting para Michael Scofield: "Eu fui a ultima pessoa a tentar o papel. Tive o guião numa sexta-feira, fiz audições na segunda, recebi a chamada na terça-feira, e já estavamos a gravar na semana seguinte! Foi tudo muito rápido, o que provavelmente foi bom porque não tive chance de ficar nervoso".
Sobre a trama de Prison Break: "Acho a prisão é fascinante para as pessoas, não importa quem sejam ou de onde (...) Coisas terriveis acontecem no outro lado da parede"
Sobre a tatuagem do Michael ter virado moda: "That's pretty cool!"
O actor Matt Damon (The Bourne Ultimatum) também vem à conversa xD
A segunda entrevista é transcrita e podem ler abaixo:
Q. Have you been working on any recent projects other than the show “Prison Break” that fans will get to see you featured in?
A. There seems to be a rather dated expectation in this business that every TV actor is dying to make the jump to the big screen. That might be true for some, but not me. Would it be nice to make a movie here and there? Yes. Do I have plans to become the next Matt Damon? No. If “Prison Break” ends and I go on to spend the rest of my career playing small parts in interesting, left-of-center movies, I’ll count myself lucky. Or I could easily wind up on another TV show. That would make me happy too. But I think I’d opt for a supporting part next time. Being one of the leads on a one-hour drama has been an incredible experience, but it’s also been extremely challenging. I’m pleased to be part of a story that’s given pleasure to so many people across the world, but I won’t be sorry when it comes to an end. I’ll be excited to begin that next chapter, whatever it looks like. Be it movies or television or a dinner theater near you - I’ll embrace it.
Q. Season three of “Prison Break” will soon be premiering. What can you tell us will be new and interesting with your character and the plot of the show?
A. First off we’ve got a new prison that makes Fox River look like a trip to the day spa. We’ll also be finding out a lot more about the conspiracy that destroyed the brothers’ lives in the first place. And as far as my character is concerned, the question this season is how far across the line can a good man go before you can no longer call him good?
Q. What is it about your role as Michael Scofield that continues to challenge you?
A. He’s constantly changing, constantly evolving. “Prison Break” is the story of a boy-man becoming a man, his struggle with questions of responsibility and sacrifice, honor and loss. Peeling back those layers can be a lot of fun… And a challenge.
Q. You’ve been playing this role for three seasons now, how have you grown as an actor?
A. “Prison Break” is a very technical show. We’ve got props, stunts, extras, multiple cameras, special effects - you name it. So in that sense, it’s been an education. I can’t wait to play a scene where it’s just two characters sitting on someone’s couch talking about the weather. It’ll seem - at least from a technical standpoint - like a walk in the park… Except we’re on someone’s couch.
Q. What is it about the show that you think continues to draw so many viewers in?
A. At the end of the day, I think it’s the characters. There are plenty of shows that serve up the fireworks with gunfights, fistfights, car crashes and so on. But we’ve also worked hard to create believable, relatable characters that people can identify with and care about. That’s why when someone gets killed off it registers as something more than spectacle…Or so we hope.
Q. What is it about working for the Fox network that makes it so appealing for you?
A. Fox pays my rent. If ABC paid my rent, they’d be appealing too.
Q. You and Dominic Purcell have an amazing chemistry and bond as the brothers Scofield on the show. Is that bond and chemistry there off set between you two as well?
A. Dom and I enjoy working together, and after 40 plus episodes of pretending we’re brothers there’s some very real respect and affection there. But our dynamic is more professional than personal. When the weekend comes, he’s doing his thing and I’m doing mine.
Q. There are so many fans of the relationship between Michael and Sara, where do you see the future for these two?
A. Michael’s relationship with Dr. Sara has always been defined by what keeps them apart. And Sarah and I have worked very hard to honor that dynamic, to craft a believable romance that blossomed under a hail of bullets. Whether these two deserve a happy ending and whether or not they’ll get one are two very different questions. And I think it’s safe to say that season three will provide some answers.
Q. Characters from the past seasons have come and gone, are there any you’d like to see return?
A. Muse Watson, who played Westmoreland in the first season. And Paul Adelstein, who did such a brilliant job as Agent Kellerman. That’s the bittersweet experience of working on a show like “Prison Break.” We depend on a certain degree of mayhem and murder, and some of the most compelling and satisfying moments in the story come at the expense of people we’ve come to think of as family. It’s always hard to say goodbye.
Q. You were voted one of People Magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful People in 2007, how did that make you feel?
A. That kind of distinction is flattering, but it’s not why I get out of bed in the morning. I’m not without my vanity, but part of me can’t wait for the paunch and the wrinkles and the receding hairline. I love older actors, the ones who show up on screen and you can see their entire history in their faces. They don’t have to say a word and you’ve already got the whole story. I’m looking forward to that.
E o Matt Damon também é falado nesta entrevista! Será perseguição? xD
Segundo o site TVGuide.com, a Sarah Wayne Callies não vai voltar, depois de dar à luz (uma menia, no passado mês de Agosto), para a 3ª temporada de Prison Break. Leiam o artigo completo AQUI.
Os fãs do shipper MiSa (Michael+Sara) podem oficialmente panicar. A duvida instala-se!
Um publicista da Fox disse, recentemente, em exclusivo ao site JustJared.com: “Actually – the network and studio has not confirmed that Sarah Wayne Callies has departed the series this season. Dr. Sara Tancredi plays a significant part in the storyline this year.”
No NYTimes: The third season of "Prison Break" was to start shooting by then, so the producers used a body double for her in the first few episodes. Todd Adair, a Fox spokesman, explained that a double was used because the timeline progressed only a couple of months over the first two seasons and there was no way to incorporate Ms. Callies's pregnancy into the story line. Mr. Adair declined to comment about whether Ms. Callies might reappear, and a spokeswoman for the actress did not return phone calls to comment, but a person involved in the show confirmed that Ms. Callies has decided not to return after giving birth."
O que acham? Será o fim de MiSa? (snif, snif!)
Pessoalmente, acho uma treta! Não faz sentido nenhum tirar a Dra Sara Tancredi do elenco depois de duas temporadas a construir a relação Michael/Sara (três anos de gravações a bater na mesma tecla! xD). Então e os primeiros minutos da nova temporada, em que o Michael começa com aquilo do "ela é muito importante para mim" e bla bla bla...??
Bem uma coisa é certa, o Michael não vai ter sexo nos proximos tempos (pelo menos com uma mulher --- NÃO deixes cair o sabonete!!) xD
