When it comes to anAliasrevival,Jennifer Garneris going to followJ.J. Abrams’ lead.
During the April 3 episode ofThe Ringer’sDear Felicitypodcast, the actress, 51, addressed whether she would be on board to return to the ABC sci-fi thriller, in which she played protagonist Sydney Bristow for the show’s five-season run.
“I’m asked for a reboot literally every interview I do, when we’re gonna do it,” Garner said.
Host andAliascostarGreg Grunbergproposed a full-length feature instead of a reboot but assumed that the actress “wouldn’t do that.”
“Are you kidding? Of course I would,” theJunostar corrected. “I’d do anything J.J. would direct.”

“They aren’t just like, ‘Okay, that seems fine. You have another one in you?’ They have an idea, and they’re helping guide you to the best version of whatever you show up with,” the13 Going on 30actress explained.
Garner previously expressed her enthusiasm for anAliasreboot onThe Viewin November 2023, calling it“the most fun ever.”
She added that the final decision would be contingent on theStar Warsdirector, 57: “That’s up to J.J. Nobody has ever really brought it up.”
