Alias Heads For Movies?
J.J. Abrams, executive producer of ABC’s Alias, told TV Guide Online that there have been some informal talks about adapting the series for the big screen. “It has come up, and … it’s an interesting idea,” Abrams told the site. “My agents have talked to me about it, and I know that they have talked to Disney about it, but it’s nothing that is seriously being pursued.”
Abrams added, “Given the fact that we try every week to do a movie version of the show, it’s not clear to me what we would try to do that we aren’t already trying to do. And I wouldn’t want to make the show look small by doing a [movie]. You have to be careful of that.”
Any Alias movie would likely arrive in theaters after the show ends its run on the small screen, TV Guide reported. As for whether the show will get a third year, Abrams said, “I’m betting it will [be renewed]. But I haven’t heard anything official, and it’s up to them to say no. But we’re plotting our stories ahead as if we’ll get picked up, just as during the first season, we were plotting ahead as if we’d get picked up for a second.” Alias airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
