Sarah Wayne Callies Will be Back!
Correction:
SpoilerFix recently stated that the “Sara” being cast is only being cast as a temporary lookalike to Sarah Wayne Callies for the purposes of the episodes leading up through Ep.03×03. As seen in the comments below, Nick Santora says:
I had been asked by some fans if, through Season 3, Dr. Tancredi was going to be played by a different actress and I said “No” - and I’ll say it again - I can assure the fans that they won’t be subject to seeing Dr. Tancredi, running through the streets of Panama or the US or wherever played by a totally different actress. That is ridiculous and will NOT happen.
So I can assume that Sarah Wayne Callies is NOT leaving the show.

Top 5 Sara Tancredi Moments
- Here are what we believe to be the top 5 Sara Tancredi moments from Prison Break (in chronological order). You can cast your vote below for your favorite Sara moment.
- Riots, Drills & the Devil - Pt. 1” (S01E06) – Sara defending herself in the infirmary – So what’s a girl to do when trapped in the infirmary in the middle of a prison riot? Well, if you’re Dr. Sara, you create a make-shift knife from a piece of broken glass and defend yourself against all the bad men who are trying to break down the door you’re hiding behind. I think this is the first time we really saw Sara assert herself and it was pretty good at the time. Sara’s ability to defend herself only got better as the show progressed.
- “Go” (S01E21) - Sara leaving the infirmary door open – Let’s be honest here, ladies…..if Wentworth Miller said to you “leave the door unlocked so I can bust my fine ass out of prison” you’d do it, wouldn’t you? Don’t be ashamed. Maybe Sara truly believed that
- "Bolshoi Booze" (S02E11) - Sara burning Kellerman with the iron - By far the most kick-ass Sara moment ever. EVER. The moment that iron touched Kellerman's chest I was screaming "you go, girl!" That's what you get for trying to drown the good doctor, Kellerman! I was tired of Sara's quiet defiance whenever she told Kellerman that her father didn't leave her anything. I'm happy she realized that the only way to deal with a man trying to murder you is to burn them in retaliation. I know that’s what I’d do.
- "Chicago" (S02E16) - Michael & Sara kiss in the train bathroom - Alright, so I'm a girl. And, like most girls, I love romance. Some may argue that the other two kisses shared by Sara and Michael (in the infirmary or after Sara shot Kim) were better, but I disagree. This is the first time either Sara or Michael finally said the word “love” out loud in conjunction with the other person. Bold move, Sara, and we’re all glad it paid off. Plus, the fact that she got to make out with Michael Scofield? Not a bad day's work.
- "Sona" (S02E22) - Sara shooting Bill Kim - Pop quiz, hotshot: there’s an annoying short man about to shoot the love of your life and/or his brother who has, possibly, the greatest pecs the universe has ever seen.What do you do?Well, if you’re Sara Tancredi, you shoot the hostage…..er, I mean the annoying short man.God, Speed was a great movie, wasn’t it?Back to Prison Break……Sara finally got to be the hero. Up until this point most of Sara's more kick-ass maneuvers were to save herself. When she shot Bill Kim, she did it to save Lincoln (and possibly Michael). Despite the guilt and remorse she felt later over taking a life, there was little hesitation when she shot Kim. Sara's moral boundaries had been tested in the same way that Michael and Lincoln's had, and the fact that she was so willing to kill Kim to save

'Prison Break' Star Robert Knepper
You know you love to hate him. Robert Knepper has proven himself to be great at being horrible as Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell, the psychopathic murderer on FOX's Prison Break. This season T-Bag finds himself stuck in prison with nemesis Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) once again, only this time it's the lawless Sona, run by the ruthless Lechero (Robert Wisdom). Thus far in the third season, T-Bag is aligning himself with Lechero, becoming the boss' right-hand man.At FOX's fall press junket, BuddyTV had the opportunity to sit down with the face of evil, and was taken aback by how damn nice he is. Robert Knepper is charming and instantly you forget all about the nefarious character he plays on Prison Break. He spoke about playing the seedy character, comparing T-Bag's role in season 3 to that of Iago in William Shakespeare's Othello, and then got sidetracked by an amusing on-set anecdote about how darn pretty Wentworth Miller, or Went as he's called, is
Hi, this is John from Buddy TV, and I’m here with Robert Knepper from the hit FOX show Prison Break. Hi, Robert.
Hey, man.
That was easy. Now, do you enjoy playing such a bad character, just a complete villain?
I do. I enjoy the response I get from when I finish a take, and I see the camera guy, Billy Nielsen go, “Yeah, OK.” I crack ’em up or I scare ’em or something. But I gotta tell you, I don’t set out to play him being a villainous character, I set out to just fulfill the objective that the character’s trying to do in the moment. If he’s, say now in the third season, if he’s trying to figure out how he’s gonna climb up the ladder in Lechero’s world here at Sona prison, that’s his objective. He’s gonna do anything and everything to make Lechero trust him, and make him realize that he can be a confidant. I mean he’s basically going to be an Iago for Bob Wisdom’s Othello, so he’s gotta get Othello to believe that he’s trustworthy. That’s what I play, I don’t play, “Hmm, I’m gonna snarl and I’m gonna do these things.”
You don’t play him good?
No, I’m trying to play him bad. Although you know, I think T-Bag is smart enough to know that he’s doing something really dastardly. So the audience is kind of in on the whole thing of watching the machinations of this guy’s mind, so that’s kind of crazy to watch.
And in the second season, your character, when everyone was freed from prison they kind of got away. And you were off doing, and your character was doing your own thing. Do you enjoy the third season, kind of coming back to a prison setting and getting to work with like, the core group of actors all the time?
Two things: I love being back with my buddies, it’s reminiscent of that first season when we were all, two things were happening. We were discovering these characters, and we were celebrating the newfound success of this show. And that was great, to be able to share with fellow actors. “Hey, I got this letter. Oh, did you hear about our numbers last night? Can’t you wait to go to the People’s Choice Awards?”
I mean, all this stuff was happening the first year, it was really great. And the third year now, to sort of say, “Oh man, we’re back together.” I mean not all of us are together, some guys are still on the outside. Like Amaury is on the out, Sucre’s character or Sucre is on the outside, and I miss him. But luckily I get to see him at night a lot of the time.
But yeah, I also think the second level is good storytelling to have us all come back in that kind of environment we’re at in the first season. It’s not a safe environment, it’s not a clean environment. But it’s a prison and it’s a grittier reality than that first year’s prison, it’s also good that it’s not the same thing.
And how is the cast done? Because they’ve been constantly kind of adding in the new characters in the second season, you’ve got William Fichtner, now you have Robert Wisdom. How do all of these additions mesh in with that original group?
I think very well. I think that it enhances the story, and again it’s just Writing 101, Acting 101. You have a hero, and you’ve got to step in his way every chance you can get so that he cannot accomplish his goal. Which is in the first season to free his brother, and the second season to clear his name, and now in the third season to get himself out of prison.
People love these characters that they’ve known, that were established, that they also… I think it’s good to bring in new ones. You’ve got more people in the way of this guy accomplishing his goal, and they’re colorful characters. And in T-Bag’s case, they’re monsters of characters. But we don’t care, we’re following the objective of the story. At the same time, we’re discovering these really rich, complex characters.
And on the set, if you’re not filming or you have some downtime, how do you fill up that time on the set? What do you do to relax?
You know that’s funny, the third season is even more a sense of family. Second season I’d hang out in my trailer a lot, if I didn’t have the chance to read or pay bills, I would hang out in the trailer. Now I gotta tell you that I love hanging out with my bros. Not just the acting bros, but the camera bros, the sound people, the hair and makeup department. We are all, we’ve known each other now, some of us for almost three years.
And it’s a great feeling to just be able to hang out, even if we’re just sitting in video village behind the monitors with the directors, who also again we know, because most of them have been there now for the second, third, sometimes fourth time around. You know, so, “Hey man, how you’ve been? What’ve you been doing the last several months that we haven’t seen each other?”
And talk with the camera guys, we have parties weekend. Willie is one of our favorite focus pullers shows up at the party, he’s got this white hat on, this kind of little gangster hat. He’s wearing sunglasses and one of the waitresses at this restaurant up on the lake says, “Hey everybody look, it’s Wentworth. Wentworth showed up at the party.” And it’s not Wentworth, it’s Willie, who is… we’re all great buddies.
Willie like Amaury is also Puerto Rican, just got this beautiful color of his skin, but he looks a little like Wentworth. And the lady there, the waitress turns to Billy Nielsen, the camera operator who’s helped throw the party and says, “You know, he looks a lot cuter on television, he looks a lot better.”
And I just know when we go to the set, when I get back on the set, everybody’s gonna rib Willie about this. And Willie’s a stud, man, he’s a gorgeous man to be compared to. And Went is amazing, beautiful on camera. So that kind of joking and that camaraderie, that’s gonna be fodder for several days.

Wentworth Miller: I'm Not Gay
Miller, 34, graduated from Princeton University in 1995 with a degree in English literature prior to his pursuit of the entertainment industry. Initially, he appeared on the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer as a guest. This was followed by more TV appearances on Popular and ER, as well as a starring role on the series Dinotopia.

And while Miller is not being bothered with the buzz, he firmly denies the gay rumors and puts wit and serene as he answers the allegations. He clarifies, "No, I'm not gay. I know these rumors are out there...I'm cool with the fact that they exist, I mean this is about fantasy. Certain people are going to have certain fantasies. If someone wants to imagine me with a woman, or a man or one of each, that's cool with me as long as you keep watching the show."

Sarah Wayne Callies - FOX Made Her Quit?
Gosh I hope this is a rumor! But it’s strange that nobody is coming out and refuting it…
According to an interview in French magazine Tele Star, former Prison Break star Sarah Wayne Callies, aka Dr. Sara Tancredi, was forced to quit the show. Here is a rough translation of the interview (if the magazine is credible):
Big surprise on Prison Break. We hear that you’re leaving the show in the third season.
Yes, but I didn’t have the choice. I’m sad, but it’s just show business.You weren’t expecting this?
No, at the end of season 2 last year. I was sure I’d continue. It’s such a great adventure we achieved.How did you know you were fired?
I don’t want to speculate too much about this. I was shocked.Your leaving the show was a big deal. You have to tell us more!
I’ll just say this. I am sorry to let down the viewers. I have loved the support Sara Tancredi got from them. and though she was a victim of her own destiny, I liked how she made decisions by herself. But the way things ended up couldn’t have been foreseen. Again, I was deceived by the decision.How did your fellow actors react?
They told me ‘It’s too bad. I loved working with you and good luck, we hope we can work together again.’And Wentworth [Miller]?
We were so sad that we wouldn’t work together anymore. Wentworth is a gentleman. He’s gracious and full of class. And i learned a lot from him. But in a series like “Prison Break,” apart from Wentworth, anyone can go. When I took the role of Sara, I thought it’d be for only a year. Afterwards, I was so happy to get a second year.If they call you back, will you accept?
Of course! I don’t have another role right now. Right now, I need to find work.How will Sara make her exit from the series?
I don’t know. I’m not part of the team anymore and don’t have any influence on the storyline.How is being a mom to baby Keala?
It’s a rich experience and unpredictable. You can’t plan anything. (Keala was born in July 2007.)What projects do you currently have today?
I’ll rest another month in Vancouver (Canada). Afterwards, I’ll go to California for a little bit. After that, I’d like to do theater in New York. I honed my skills on the stage and I miss it.
