Just because it has turned up elsewhere:

The "clipping" is a fake; somebody's idea of a joke. (Seriously, Oscar [tm], winner Charlize Theron and "A" list film hottie Elisha doing a dorky little SF project for HBO and no money? I don't think so. Some contemporary drama about a legless lesbian mountain-climber, sure - something with "Emmy' written all over it, but not B5.)
JMS's response was unambiguous:
Pity. I was prepared to pay the man a hefty sum to let me come to wherever they were shooting and help out in the wardrobe department.
Just wanted to scotch this one before it gainied any traction.
Not a bad fake, as such things go. The hoaxer should have chosen a publication that doesn't have an on line edition, though. It is too easy to check a "clipping" against the e-version of the paper and expose such an obvious fake.
Sorry if anyone got his/her hopes up.

I'd been warned this might come along... it's somebody's idea of a joke. Nothing here is accurate. There is no such project.
