Because every lunch hour needs a hot mess.
Jennifer Garner is basically the reason this site exists. We live to kiss her ass and praise her for greatness, so why stop now? Garner after a slate of actually kind of shitty really super awesome movies post-Alias has signed a production deal with ABC Studios via her production company Vandalia Films.
Jennifer Garner has sealed a first-look production deal with ABC Studios, reports Variety. She starred for five seasons on ABC’s “Alias” as Sydney Bristow. The deal covers her Vandalia Films production company, which is looking to get into the TV business. Garner runs Vandalia with Juliana Janes; the duo has a first-look pact with Warner Bros. for feature films.
The duo said they hope to bring feature writers to the TV side and also work with writers they had met during Garner’s stints on “Alias” and “Felicity.” Garner and Janes said they’re looking toward developing female-driven material such as “Grey’s Anatomy.”
“(ABC Entertainment topper) Steve McPherson and I have a great relationship and have been talking about doing something together for some time now. It’s been over three years since the finale of ‘Alias,’ ” Garner said, adding that she was looking forward “to have the opportunity to get back into television wearing my producer hat.”
A TV Deal with ABC and a Motion Picture deal with WB is pretty fucking sound. Producing is a wise move for an actress in her late 30s, there is no telling at what stage Hollywood tries to drop talent any more, regardless of stature, and so getting a foothold in the power-side of things like Jodie Foster clearly ensures greater longevity. Apparently though, Garner will NOT be acting in any shows as part of the deal – but the door is clearly open. So is mine. Come visit me Jennifer. We can talk and then have sex.
