Jennifer Garner
played Sydney Bristow

Career Since Alias: She's only been in one released movie since Alias, but Garner has stayed in the press thanks to the birth of her daughter with Ben Affleck, and has an interesting mix of forthcoming projects. One of the major female stars in Hollywood today.

I'd say Ron Rifkin (and to a lesser extent, Balthazar Getty, although I hardly classify him as an Alias cast member for his one-year stint) is doing the best so far, with an immediate TV role that's already picked up for another season.

I love Bradley Cooper. Why couldn't Kitchen Confidential have lasted more than five episodes?

garner is not one of the major hollywood stars right now.

Shhh. Telling the crazy people that they're wrong is not safe.

Bradley Cooper is hot!
He was also on Jack and Bobby but that was when Alias was still on.

So far, 4 Alias alumni have been on Brothers and Sisters

Ron Rifkin
Balthazar Getty
The psychologist chick who Sloane had some weird flirtatious affair with in season 3 (she plays Holly in B&S)
And that guy who played "the other Mister Sloane" made an apperance in B&S as a marital counselor.

Gina Torres (Ana Espinosa) was recently in "I think I love my Wife"

I liked Kitchen Confidential because Bradley Cooper shows his boxers every other episode.

HAHA j/k I really liked the show though.

statistically, Jennifer Garner is one of the highest earning actresses in Hollywood. Therefore she is considered to be one of the big A list stars. Public perception is moulded by power which is generated by money.

Let's check out how she does as a lead in movies

2007 - Catch and Release - 15m
2005 - Elektra - 24m
2004 - 13 Going on 30 - 57m

Wow, the general public just loves her in movies.

Jayhawk shut the fuck up! Obviously copying and pasting those figures from BOM was fun but you are simply misguided and those movies have no bearing on her popularity.

.....

Also Patricia Wettig - The Psychologist is also on BROTHERS & SISTERS. I'd say she plays my favourite character on the show. Her voice is amazing.

Merrin Dungey is in the new Grey's Anatomy spin-off pilot.

she may be popular but that does not make her an A lister. Bruce Campbell is popular.

I adore Garner, but with the exception of 13 Going On 30, she hasn't been given the star vehicles she deserves. She deserves better than fare like Elektra and Catch And Release.

Alias was a decent show.

her movies dont necessarily have to be huge hits for her to be a big earner.
Some of hollywoods biggest names have starred in films lately which have performed worse than all of those titles. It doesn't suddenly mean the world hates them, it just means people don't like whatever movie they are in. I think the notion of judging a persons appeal based soley on how much money their movie makes is a little stupid, especially considering Garners projects have hardly been hotpots of audience appeal.

Merrin Dungey is one of my favourites. And so was Patricia Wettig, I liked Wettig from before.
