Sarah Wayne Callies Nixed By Prison Break

Sarah Wayne Callies is not returning to Prison Break this season, reports TV Guide.

The 30-year-old actress, who plays Dr. Sara Tancredi, was reportedly on maternity leave but apparently that’s not the case!

This doesn’t make much sense creatively for the show as Prison Break spent two years building her relationship with Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), but we’ll see how the writers spin this one. Who’s going to be Michael’s new love interest this season???

Back in January, it was announced that Callies would be expecting her first child, with husband Josh Winterhalt, in late summer. No news about the birth has officially been announced yet but the baby is reportedly a girl.

UPDATE: A publicist for FOX just issued a statement exclusively to JustJared.com: “Actually – the network and studio has not confirmed that Sarah Wayne Callies has departed the series this season. Dr. Sara Tancredi plays a significant part in the storyline this year.” So the question still remains — will Callies return as Dr. Tancredi?

no way why?? when did she have he baby???

****she***

Interestingly enough, on IMDB it reports her as 2005 - 2007, with no mention of “in production” for season 3: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0915637/ but then again it doesn’t for Went so I guess that means nothing :) She is however down for filming some other show this year “Queen’s Supreme” which I imagine would be very hard to do whilst having a baby and filming season 3 of PB..!

Something afoot I reckon, maybe she gets killed off after like two episodes. With WM about to come out of the closet she probably figured that his acting wasn’t up to scratch to convince the female audience of being hetero… Well I’ve never been convinced anyhow.

tamam siktirsin girtsin scofield e karı mı yok bulur siker birini

I dont really care about SWC. She’s not so good

As long I can see Michael I’m ok.

Love you Went

Sarah please came back….the show can’t exist without you and michael..we’re perfect and great actors..please change your mind!

SHE IS NOT LEAVING!!! why does everyone believe everything they read! this is another stupid rumor!

I really hope she is leaving (can’t stand her) and WM being gay is not a rumour, is a fact

i unno guys, i just dont believe this. i mean i watch the show because of her, well others too like mr. miller

Better not be true!!
one of the main reasons I watch PB is for sara/michael…would be ruined if she left!!

i bet shes not leaving and for comment
100. A

I agree with you Myra PB is her bread and butter she’s not going to leave a show that’s making tons of cash.Her husband doesn’t even have a job how is she going to support her baby with two people not bringining in alot of income no way is she leaving imo!

Question: Regarding your item about Sarah Wayne Callies not returning to Prison Break, Fox put out a statement saying she plays a significant part in the storyline this year. So who have I to believe? — Claire
.
Ausiello: Believe us both ’cause it’s all true. I’ll have much more to say on this shocking turn of events in the very near future.

What the heck…..?
Calm down people. Ausiello is not always a credible source. As long as there is no statement from Fox or from Sarah i still believe she’ll be back this season. How can you imagine PB without Dr Tancredi. I don’t believe the writers after having spent two years building Sarah’s character are ready now to kill her off. The magic chemistry developed by WM and SWC is one of the great success of the show.
So my advise: just wait… :)

OMG TTHEY CANT Do IT!!!

i mean, do whatever you can and make her stay in the show!!!!!!!!
pay her more if you need to -.-, sara can’t simply disappear from the show!

OMG prison without sara =\\\

i would do the same thing , i wouldn’t leave my baby recently born for any show , she has to take care a little of her baby , the thing i am shocked because i invested my time in the michael and sara that is what kept me looking this show but if they kill her of the show i dont know if i am gonna watch it anymore , too many shocking things in this show , first the lawyer who was defending lincoln now sara ? this is too much

HELLO CANCELLATION!!!!!!!!!!ACCORDING TO RATINGS..PB HAS 9MRATINGS BUT WITH THIS NEWS…IT WILL LOST LOTS OF VIEWERS!!!!!!!

oh nooooo!i was so shocked!they cannot do this!prison break is not the same without the mi-sa story!it`s their story why I and so many other people watched it.they had just a few moments but the fact that they were rare made it so interesting and it made you feel their love.”wait for me”…
guys, I understand swc totally that she wants to be there for her lil baby every single minute.
but: couldn´t she make a deal with her fans? somethin like:
as the whole season will have 22 episodes she will just come back for the last 5 episodes?or no the last 6 no 7..;)
I mean PB will make a break (as it happened in the last seasons) that´s obvious, so enough time to give tancredi a comeback!!!
what do you think?is this possible???????????????????????????
otherwise PB will loose many many viewers. the first episode of season 3 was so boring!!!!!!

Fox needs to bring Sara back back, whatever, however, unless Fox needs this series rundown.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!i hope this is not true

What on earth??? Bring Sara back!!!

Bring Sarah Wayne Callies back coz the ratings are plummeting to non existence!!!

Hey FOX!!! News FLASH!!!
Prison Break is at the bottom so to speak.

noooo!! you cant do this FOX.. your show is so good.. dont destroy it by killing sara..!! please dont!!!

I can not believe what I am reading.
I think all of us were waiting to the reunion between Michael and Sarah, because it was the only reason with LJ to Michael to be in there and to try to escape.
I can not understand this decision.I personally believe that is a huge mistake, and I think PB is going to loose a lot of viewers.
I love PB and I loved the relationship between Michael and Sarah.

Last, I only want to say that I am sorry my english; I am not an english speaker.

¡¡Please, it is vital that Sarah come back to the show!!

I really can’t believe they did it. Not only have they killed a main character, but they have killed any possibility of a GOOD ending for this series.

What bloody IDIOT at the network thought that this was a good idea!!?? They have KILLED the show.

What is Michael going to do… get suicidal? vengeful? Yeah… that’s great. Michael scowling is a good look on him… but after 3 seasons, giving him NO REEASON to ever smile again? It’s not only TOO dark… it’s TEDIOUS.

This show was different and you KNEW no supporting character was safe… but THIS is disgusting and ridiculous. They have pushed it TOO FAR.

After watching religiously for 2 seasons I now feel like I’ve WASTED all that time and energy on this show. What a betrayal! I’m just glad they did it early in the season… The only thing WORSE than this would have been investing MORE of my time with this crappy outcome.

They have violated my trust. I’m not going to watch a show where anyone and EVERYONE could die in the end.

NOOOOOOO!!!!! PB fired her … open this link

it proves everything and that lily is wrong
http://lonman06.com/2007/10/02/sara-was-fired/

they said she might come back!!!! that wud be awesome!! if she doesnt im not gna watch prison break!!! and plus its their own lose!!! prison break will lose if they kick her out!!! so there is possibility she can come back!!! lets all vote for her to come back!! CMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
