OlderWhat Happened to Dr. Sara Tancredi on Prison Break??
BEWARE ALL YOU SPOILER-PHOBES!
MAJOR PLOT POINTS LURK AHEAD!
Find out the answer inside…
———————–
TANCREDI GOT THE AXE.
Yes, Dr. Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Callies) was decapitated and her head stuffed in a box. So what really happened to SWC? TVGuide interviewed Prison Break executive producer Matt Olmstead to get to the bottom of things:
What was your understanding as to why she didn’t want to come back? It seems strange that she refused to return in any capacity. Doesn’t it seem strange to you? It looked like a pretty good deal on the face of it. We definitely came up in money. Thirteen episodes would have allowed the character to have a proper exit. We were willing to push the start date back [to accommodate her maternity leave], which would have meant her coming in [around] Episode 10, but that wasn’t accepted. So then we offered to come up [to Canada] before she gave birth and film at her house. Pretty good money and she wouldn’t even have to leave her house. That wasn’t accepted. So it was a little curious to me and to others why she was taking such a hard stance. [Maybe] she felt that she was made certain assurances about being part of the show this season. And in fairness to her, those assurances were given, because she was such a valuable member of the show…. Also, she’s up [in Canada]. She’s comfortable. She’s starting a family. Maybe she didn’t want to have to fly down and have to do this stuff. Or maybe she felt like she wanted to be part of the show [full time], not just half the season. Perhaps she felt a little jilted. Our [original] plan was to definitely keep her for [all of] Season 3, but after a couple of times of getting it kicked back from the network, we had to come up with a new idea and that necessitated her character being killed.
Read the full interview here.
Sarah Wayne Callies response via her spokesperson:
“As hard as we all tried, the Prison Break powers that be and I were unable to find a way to meet both the needs of the story and the needs of my family. We parted wishing each other well. I had a wonderful time working with the creative team and have a world of respect for all of them; they took great care of Dr. Sara. I’m also enormously grateful to the fans. They’ve been so gracious and supportive, and I hope they continue to enjoy the show.”
There’s also a video interview with Wentworth Miller, Amaury Nolasco, and Dominic Purcell with E! here.
– WHY DO YOU THINK Sarah Wayne Callies didn’t return to Prison Break? Was it really all about the money?
– WHAT DO YOU ANTICIPATE for Michael’s rebound romance?
P.S. Isn’t all the interaction between Michael and Lincoln talking through the gates getting really tired?

Oh man, these series writers are absolutly out of thier minds. Were they high on crack or somthin when they killed the only femenine beauty in the show?
I used to love prison break all the way but now i hate it more than anything in this world.
Go to hell you stinking writers.
pretty stupid and frustrating for all the PB fans..
they should not have given her that strong role if she was to be cut off.
Brink Sara back to life,,please!!! she the cutest female character in this show!!Everybody is in love with her!!!Do not do that to us you writers!!!
You have money you have power so let her birth her child and brink her back!!!If i knew the way i would make a site “www.brinksarabacktolife.com collecting signatures for Sara’s Character resurrection!!!! Every show needs a love story and Scofild-Sara’s love story is the best ever!!!!!!!
So do something find a way and brink her back!!!
DO YOU HEAR ME PRISON BREAK TEAM?????????????
I am no longer interested with out Sarah. Its like the last two seasons didn’t happen. The show sucks now.
well Id rather watch Lost than this now…
too too too too. it’s to*
bring her back….a.k.a the cut-off is not Sara……that’s incredible…you are looosing viewers….and giving Michael a rebound romance? that’s discusting….no romance for michael unless it’s Sara!
Close the series!!!
is going bad real fast! you are stretching it so far out that its anoying!
keep it a good series and make the ending satisfying.
I think Sarah will come back to the show. The thing that bothered me the most is that when Michael was in jail in 100 degree heat he wore a long sleeve thermal because they didn’t feel like painting his tattoos on again. Was it just pure lazyness after the first season?
plz tell me is sara dead at season 3-4?
plz e-mail me:joanna_93@windowslive.com
i am fan!!
You know, that was all before. It’s in the old days, and now we have to look forward for next season, season 4. Where, as you can read almost everywhere, Sara Tancredi IS coming back to the show. Just google it, and you’ll see that it’s all true. It seems like it wasn’t her head in that box after all, I’m sure it’s that womans head that Lincoln saw at the mourge in (i think) the first episode.
I think we all agree that Michael didn’t deserve the death of Sarah. But I agree with spooky. This isn’t a romance programme. I still enjoyed the episodes without Sarah but I think that it was sad to kill her off so abruptly and… I don’t like the idea of Molly. I don’t even like the name.
Well…
I’m writting from Spain, and this is incredible for us. We are very disgusted with this idea of killing off Sarah. We are a lot of fans here and now we can’t continue watching this because its totally destroyed.
If you see, this started only trying to save Lincoln from a injust death and now there are about 100 people killed for saving Lincoln… this is unbelievable, SARA IS DEAD!!! THEY MUST BE MAD!!!
Only one thing: PRISON BREAK HAS LEFT A LOT OF FANS: THIS WAS NOT A ROMANCE PROGRAMME BUT NOW ITS A HORRIBLE MAN-HUNTING STUPID PROGRAMME, AND I HATE IT.
SARAH IS THE BEST.
THE END.
No need to worry anymore. She’s back! :)
PB SUCKS . WITHOUT SARA NO MORE PB.TEY MADE A GOOD COUPLE WITH SCOIFIELD
dude:
im afraid that i do agree with those who belive that the show will never be the same withuot her.
its not the love story as much as the character it self .
sara is a beautiful,smart woman who had alot to do with how things turned out for the brothers, so stop trashing her because ” i adore her”.
It is a great movie. very nice and the actors were playing their roles lovely. It is about the USA policy overall. that is right. Michael use peace nonviolence resistence to protecthimself thats a good idea as Gandhi and Martin Luther. so I live in Iraqi (Kurdistan). I know how it was popular here in Kurdistan.
I love Sara too much. I hope every doctors to act like Sara Tancredi. the episode tells us about the hiden part which are USA prison. who are they a soldier in Iraq which respects IRAQI prison as human being thats great. it tells us about corruption in the most powerful state.
hi sara
hi michael
hi lincoln
OMFG :O Im so depressed
Hey I love the way you acted it was very good
please keep up
