Medicine Man
By Pamela Warrick
Thanks to Chatty for the scan!
The former Alias star, 40, puts on a white coat and heads to the hospital for TNT's new medical drama Hawthorne.
Ever played a doctor before?
I was an eye doctor for one episode on Friends, but I had a lot to learn to play a surgeon -- zany stuff like arterial thrombolizations.
How did you prepare?
We spent a couple of days in a real ER. And I was invited to go into an OR, but I didn't think I needed to see inside some guy's chest cavity.
What's it like working with Jada Pinkett Smith?
Her mom's an RN, so she's passionate about this show. She never rests. I go home, put my feet up and drink a beer. She goes home to a house full of kids.
Anyone special in your life?
Just Millicent, my chocolate Lab. I haven't had a girlfriend for a long time. I don't want to settle.
