Thorne happy to fight with her 'Rescue Me' co-star

The Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) — This will be no powder-puff scuffle between the ladies of "Rescue Me."

Actress Callie Thorne, who plays Sheila, the on-again-off-again love interest of Denis Leary's character, says she'll duke it out in several scenes with Andrea Roth, who plays Leary's estranged wife, Janet.

The 39-year-old Thorne calls the Sheila-Janet clashes "some of the juiciest stuff that I've gotten to do on 'Rescue Me,'" which has just returned on FX for its fifth season.

These aren't sissy cat fights, says Thorne, who describes them as "down and dirty."
