MAYBE THIS TIME, THE RAMBALDI STUFF WILL MAKE SENSE: E! indicates that ABC is interested in rebooting Alias. The original pilot of Alias remains one of the best pilots in recent memory, with its great musical selections, immense visual style, and authentically surprising plot twist at the end about SpyDaddy's allegiances, and I don't know if there's a reason to revisit it. That said, if they're going to do so, any thoughts on casting you'd like to see? Summer Glau is a maybe too-obvious choice for Sydney Bristow, but she'd work (as would fellow Whedon alum Dichen Lachman)--any other thoughts of how to cast this or make it work?
