Lena Olin Turns Down “Alias” Return
Olin Turns Down Alias
Lena Olin has turned down a deal to reprise the role of Jennifer Garner’s nefarious mom, Irina Derevko, on ABC’s spy drama Alias, TV Guide Online reported. That’s despite the fact that, as a source close to the negotiations told the site, “every single one of her demands were met by ABC and the producers.”
Olin reportedly asked for “Sharon Stone-type money,” referring to the unprecedented $100,000-per-episode salary Stone pulled in for her recent Practice guest appearance, the source told TV Guide Online. ABC declined to comment, as did Olin’s representatives.
Alias executive producer J.J. Abrams is holding out hope that Olin will be back. “[Irina] remains a critical piece of the puzzle,” he told the site.
