The actress guest-starred as Noel Crane’s ex-girlfriend, Hannah Bibb, on the popular drama series.
Jennifer Garner is opening up about her “emotional” audition for Felicity, which led to her crying in the bathroom afterward.
The 13 Going on 30 star, who made a guest appearance as Hannah Bibb, the ex-girlfriend of Noel Crane (Scott Foley), in the J.J. Abrams and Matt Reeves-created series, recently locked back at her audition for what “must have been the breakup scene.”
“I remember the audition. I remember going into the bathroom after because the scene was so emotional and I needed to cry,” she said on The Ringer’s Dear Felicity podcast. “I needed to hide in the bathroom stall and finish the cry that I started in the audition because it was such a powerful scene.”
Garner claimed Abrams made her come back later to re-audition for the role, to which podcast host and former Felicity star Greg Grunberg quipped, “That makes sense to me, because you’re not very good. I totally get it. I mean, notes, notes — you know what? Let me give her a block of notes to take home.”
The Alias alum responded, “I do need that, though. I’ve always loved a ton of feedback. I love that about working with J.J. and with Matt. They are helpful and they are true directors. They aren’t just like, ‘Okay, that seems fine. You have another one in you?’ They have an idea, and they’re helping guide you to the best version of whatever you show up with.”
“That was true in the audition process as well,” Garner added. “After the first read, then I really was invested and was like, ‘Oh gosh, I really wanna do this.’”
Garner’s character Hannah Bibb appeared in seasons one and four of the drama series, which ran from 1998 to 2002.
