Weiss Sees More Alias Action
SPOILERS!
Greg Grunberg, who plays CIA agent Eric Weiss on ABC's Alias, told SCI FI Wire that the upcoming third season will find his character living with Jennifer Garner's Sydney Bristow, who is still recovering from the shock of missing two years of her life. "I'm going to be roommating with Sydney, which is great," he said in an interview at the ABC Prime Time Preview Weekend at Disney's California Adventure theme park. "The CIA wants someone to keep an eye on her, because she's emotionally unstable."
The new living situation will put Grunberg's character frequently between Sydney and her now married ex-boyfriend, Agent Michael Vaughn (Michael Vartan). "I'm like everybody's confidant," Grunberg said. "I am in the middle, and that's a good place to be. Even Marshall [Kevin Weisman] was talking to me about his relationship with this girl he was interested in. I'm the shoulder to cry on. Everybody comes and talks to me. ... I am the show's Dr. Phil."
Grunberg -- a lifelong friend of the show's creator, J.J. Abrams -- added that his character will also see more action this season. "They're giving me a lot," he said. "I get to go on missions and stuff. I'm going to be basically the same, but more involved in the action stuff and getting out of the office." Alias returns with new episodes on Sept. 28 in its regular Sunday 9 p.m. ET/PT timeslot.
