Andrew W Marlowe, creator of the tv series Castle, tells TVGuide about Jennifer Beals’ character Sophia: “I always knew that she was going to be the bad guy and we were going to kill her in the end. But I also know that in any sort of CIA-inspired story, nobody is ever really dead for certain, I like to have my cake and eat it too. It’s all depending on where our storytelling takes us and assuming that Jennifer had a good time and wants to come back and play with us.”

Tonight is the first episode (Pandora) of the two part guest starring Jennifer in the tv series Castle. Jennifer plays Sophia Turner, a CIA agent and former muse of Richard Castle. “I think it certainly complicates things a bit, because it’s another person that [Beckett] didn’t know about,” Jennifer said.
“And I think it’s probably a more important person because there was enough about this person that was interesting that he decided to put it into a character. So that might be problematic in some ways.”
