Callies
Returns To "Prison Break" (March 28th 2008)

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
Seems that head in a box was a fake as E! Online reports that Sarah Wayne Callies will be back as Dr. Sara Tancredi for the fourth season of "Prison Break".


The actress bowed out of participating in the third season of the hit show due to a pending pregnancy amongst other issues. The character did appear in the third season, but only from the back and in a photograph (which was taken at a wardrobe testing session). She was quickly, and apparently, killed off with Lincoln being posted her head in a box.

Hmm missed the enitire 3rd season as it moved channels.

Perhaps I might be interested in becoming a channel hopper

That's ridiculous... even for Prison Break.

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

Seeing that it is Prison Break, I don't care. I missed her. I think I even called it in the last thread that the shadow organization could have rigged up a Hollywood-level fake. Cover it in some real blood, and Linc would be too grossed out to be able to verify.

I never thought it was Sarah's head in the box, so I don't mind it.

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

And Ausiello confirms it - and even has an interview with executive producer Matt Olmstead about the matter.

I also found this interesting. Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
This season jumps a forward in time a little. Flashbacks in the first few episodes will reveal how characters get to where they are in the present. Executive producer Matt Olmstead says "There will be a bit of a mystery period where we cover what happened. It becomes about Michael trying to figure out what happened to her. It's his attempt to reclaim her, and her trying to figure out what happened and dealing with it."
Personally, I'm happy. The idea of bringing that character back is absolutely absurd, but this is Prison Break, absurd is what they do. And I'm glad they're back.

Perhaps some of their script writers must have worked on Dallas when Bobby stepped out of the shower.

Methinks that Señor Wences was in charge of the prop department on the set of Prison Break!





(I also thought of him when viewing the Sarah-in-the-box episode when it aired.)

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

I always thought...

(I'll use spoiler text but I can't imagine that anyone reading this isn't aware of who is coming back)
Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
...that was a pretty brutal exit for the Sarah character (having your head chopped off and stuffed in a box would be fair to happen to T-Bag but not to Sarah) so in the end, I guess I'm glad that they're 'fixing' that and having Sarah come back.

It'd be funny if they just went crazy and it was still her head in the box and they've just reattached it to her body. She could have stitches all the way around her throat.

It could be backwards for half the season.

It could flop around uselessly like T-Bag's reattached hand in season 2..

I wonder if this will be used to soften Gretchen a bit. I hope not, because she's stone cold. And, she killed *somebody*. Poor LJ had to hear it.

Wasn't this already revealed half-way through the season when the son suddenly unexpectedly mentions that he didn't actually see her head being cut off because he had turned around and he just heard it?

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

Not really, because Linc saw the head. I think at that point, LJ "knew" it was her being killed, but he was just made to listen but not watch.

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

Guess I'm one of the few that never believed they killed her. I always assumed they faked it. Why is this so unbelievable anyway, we never actually saw anything. Lincoln saw a rotting head in a box covered with blood, I highly doubt he would pull it out for further inspection.

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

Uhh... We saw the head in the box and it was clearly recognizeable as Sara. They actually used a photo of Sarah Wayne Callies for the scene. Sara was dead on the show. The idea of bringing her back is something the producers came up with after the fact, which is why it's so unbelievable - they didn't plan for it, so now it doesn't make sense within the context of the story.

I can accept that Linc didn't inspect the head so it could have been a fake but like you said, the only reason it's a fake is because the producers dreamed it up after they could get the actress back. If she didn't want to come back (like last year), the charcter would still be dead.

As opposed to the rest of the show.

I agree you have to suspend so much disbelief with this show already that I can accept her being back.

Re: Prison Break 4 - Guess who's back ....

I understand that the producers came up with this idea after the fact, but it still can work. It's not like we saw a live action death, or one of those silly scenes where the person blows up in a car bomb, then later we find out she rolled out the passenger door into the river before the explosion. It's an afterthought, but can still work based on the way it was done in the previous episodes. I know i'm silly, but I love this show!

They need to come up with a damn good reason for why the company would keep her alive, though. Because right now, as far as we know, they have absolutely no use for her.

They could use her as a 'weapon' against Michael in case they didn't kill him or leave him in Sona. He's going after the company and they pull Sarah out and use her to get him to back down.

EDIT: As I said before, it's pretty off the wall to bring Sarah back but I'm kinda glad because killing her off like that was a really brutal end for an essentially innocent character.

All they had was Sarah and LJ as leverage. You kill both of them, what incentive would Michael and Lincoln have to do anything for them, except save their own lives? People don't go out of their way to rescue dead hostages. Pretend to kill one would motivate them to make sure they keep the other alive. Now they think they are free, but in fact they can use Sarah once again.

Sorry I am late to the party. Been meaning to talk about this for
the past few weeks after hearing the news.

I know it is only TV, but this news sort of pisses me off.

The poster quoted above is correct. Sara was killed off. It was her
head in the box. That was the decision made by the producers when
they realized they could not get the actress back.

Now the show is back peddling because the actress suddenly becomes
available. In the process, it ruins the storyline already in place.
