In fact, Garner successfully helped to bring to frui- tion a California law that places heavy restrictions on paparazzi photos of celebrities’ children. Coming up in 2018 from Garner, the actress is working on a thriller called Peppermint, a role that seems more Alias in nature. Deadline recently shared some of the film’s details: “Garner stars as Riley North, a young mother who awakens from a coma after her husband and daughter are killed in a brutal attack on the fam- ily. When the system shields the murderers from justice, Riley sets out to transform herself from citi- zen to urban guerrilla. She spends years in hiding honing her mind, body and spirit to become an unstoppable force, eluding the underworld, the LAPD and the FBI as she methodically delivers her personal brand of justice.” For those who want to follow Garner’s film ca- reer and personal adventures, she can be found at her official Facebook page (facebook.com/ JenniferGarner), where she provides a “behind the scenes,” often hilarious look at life on set and at home.
