Remember what happened at the end of Felicity? Don’t worry, Scott Foley doesn’t either. During a Felicity reunion panel during the ATX Television Festival on Sunday, the actor revealed he had almost no memory of what happened to his character, Noel, in the show’s weird, time-traveling final episodes.
“Hold on,†Foley exclaimed. “I died?!†As his Felicity co-stars filled in the events of the final five episodes — in which Keri Russell’s character magically jumps back in time, rewriting her senior year so that she could be with Noel — Foley seemed flabbergasted. “I feel like I would’ve remembered having sex on the roof!†he said. The rest of the cast assured Foley that his character did, in fact, die. “Wasn’t there a fire?†he asked. (Yes, there was.)
During panel — which brought together Russell, Foley, co-stars Scott Speedman, Tangi Miller, Amy Jo Johnson, Amanda Foreman, Ian Gomez, Greg Grunberg, Rob Benedict, and executive producer Lawrence Trilling for the show’s 20th anniversary — the group also discussed whether a Felicity reboot should ever happen. Foley initially reiterated what he’d at an earlier ATX panel, saying that a reboot would be “an injustice to the show that we all made and we all love†But sitting on the reunion stage seemed to make him change his mind: “Looking at these faces … I would kind of love to work with them again. I would love an opportunity to find out what happened to Richard, to Javier, to Julie, to Elena.â€
“We’d have to figure out what happened on the roof!†Russell quipped.
“I still don’t think we had sex on the roof,†Foley responded.
