Alias Stars To Spar by unknown
SciFi Wire, September 8, 2003


Alias stars Michael Vartan and Jennifer Garner revealed to SCI FI Wire details of an onscreen fight they have early in the upcoming third season on ABC. "It wasn't really a fight," Vartan said during a press conference at a prime-time preview at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, Calif. "Well, all right, there was a fight scene. But I was blindsided. I just want to say that she took me completely by surprise and kicked my ... can I say ass? And she stabs me too."

"Hey now!" Garner blurted, warning Vartan off a possible spoiler for the season.

Vartan's CIA agent Vaughn and Garner's Sydney Bristow return to ABC to pick up a cliffhanger from last season, when it was revealed that Sydney awoke in Hong Kong with the realization that two years have passed since her last memory. The fight scene between Vaughn and Sydney occurs in an early third-season episode.

"We already shot the scene," Garner told SCI FI Wire. "It was, as you can imagine, incredibly intense. And I did give him an actual pretty good wallop to the stomach, which I felt a bit guilty about later."

"Don't forget the elbow to the temple," Vartan said.

"And an elbow to the temple," Garner admitted sheepishly. "But, you know, we're all OK. We're smiling. We're here."

But Garner quickly clammed up when a reporter raised the issue of Vartan's and Garner's highly publicized off-screen romance. When asked "Do you kick his ass at home as well?" Garner replied tersely, "Next question." Alias returns Sept. 28 in its regular Sunday 9 p.m. ET/PT timeslot.
