AceShowbiz - Will J.J. Abrams-created series "Alias" be the next series to get the revival treatment? The Jennifer Garner-starring series' writers held a reunion at the ATX television festival in Austin, Texas on Saturday, June 10, where they hinted at the possible reboot.
"It would be amazing to do it; we've even talked with J.J.," co-executive producer Josh Appelbaum said during the panel. "The right idea would have to come. We wouldn’t want to do it unless it was absolutely perfect," he added.
We might not see Jennifer reprising her role as Sydney Bristow on the possible revival, though. "If [Sydney] could move on, then the audience could move on," writer Andre Nemec added. However, since nothing has been confirmed so far, any changes could happen. Knowing how "Alias" managed to lasso some A-list celebs including Quentin Tarantino, Angela Bassett and Faye Dunaway, it certainly didn't rule out the possibility of Jennifer getting back into that famed red wig.
"Alias" ran for five seasons from 2001 to 2006, centering on the life and adventures of Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner), a double agent for the CIA. Sydney spoke multiple languages, performed acrobatics and several martial arts and could hide in plain sight outsmarting anyone.
Should "Alias" be revived, it will join other returning shows, including old favorite "Twin Peaks", "24: Legacy", "Will & Grace" and "The X-Files".
