SPOILER WARNING!
Australian actress Melissa George—who takes on the new role of Vaughn's (Michael Vartan) mysterious wife in ABC's Alias—told TV Guide Online that she'll first appear in the second episode of the upcoming third season. "She will be working in the intelligence community, [but] I'm not saying which part," George told the site. "I'm not going to make her unlovable."
George was hired to play Lauren Reed, a Brit who married Vaughn sometime during Sydney's (Jennifer Garner) two-year absence. "Every woman can relate to being married to somebody [with] another woman [in the picture], and that's basically what is going to be going on," George said. "And she's a very ambitious, very strong, very intelligent woman. She's not going to let too much go past her. And she's very protective of her man, as every woman would be. But at the same time, she really looks up to Jennifer's character. She knows about her. She's read about her. So there's that whole thing going on as well. I think she's going to be fighting a lot of emotions."
As originally conceived, Reed was supposed to be a recurring character. But after George read for the part with Vartan, series creator J.J. Abrams turned it into a regular role, George said. "J.J. Abrams called me directly and asked me if I'd like to be on the show permanently ... long-term," she said. "And I'm like, 'Are you kidding me?' It was a very beautiful moment. I was so happy. It's the best show." Alias returns to its regular Sunday 9 p.m. ET/PT timeslot on Sept. 28.
