Hannigan's first major film role was in the science fiction comedy My Stepmother Is an Alien (1988).
(edit)
While acting in When Harry Met Sally, Alyson questioned the level of security at the London theater when a man in his mid twenties gained access to Alyson's dressing room. He was then stopped by security, and Alyson and her co-star Luke Perry weren't allowed to leave until he was ushered out of the way.
(edit)
When having a day off from filming Buffy The Vampire Slayer on the June 14, 2000, Alyson Hannigan was presumably dead because no one could get in touch with her.
(edit)
Alyson Hannigan appeared on the UK show The Big Breakfast and was confused when they played a game called Call My Bluffy.
(edit)
In 2000, Alyson Hannigan was a spokeswoman for breast cancer and appeared in a four page brochures in various magazines to raise awareness about the disease.
(edit)
(Alyson on being presumed dead)
Alyson: There was a rumor that I was dead. I happened to be off work that day and I had a beeper and the batteries had died so I was just shopping and looking round book stores. People were frantically trying to get in touch with me and people were calling hospitals and the news, people were calling my agent trying to see if it was true, and I got home and my voice mail was filled with people going, "Call me if you're ok" - and I was completely oblivious. (edit) (Alyson on filming an Angel episode with husband Alexis Denisof.)
Alyson: It was great for a change to share a week's work, rather than being on different projects. With the hours Alexis and I spend on set you can tend to pass like ships in the night. Weekends, however, are great because we can share precious time together. But when we're at home, I promise you, we certainly don't talk about vampires or suck each other's blood for tea. (edit) Alyson: There should be a law that there's a pajama day every few weeks. (edit) Alyson: I know quickly whether a guy is boyfriend material. If I can have a good time doing absolutely nothing with him, then that's boyfriend material for me. Like if we're able to have fun at a gas station. I've had some really good times at gas stations. (edit) (Alyson on her time on Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Alyson: It's been the most amazing and signigicant job of my life, obviously, and I'll always have it near to me heart. (edit)
