That’s right- Our beloved Jin will be reprising the role of Chin Ho Kelly in the upcoming remake.

Perhaps Kim wanted to stay in Hawaii close to his burger joint… The reboot will be brought to us by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci from Fringe Fame and also from CSI NY.
It is too soon to speculate on the show as the part of Detective Steve Mcgarret has not been cast as of yet… With all our castaways taking jobs on new shows it solidifies the reality of the end of LOST.

Whats worse is that none of these shows can really give us LOST fans what we’ve been obsessing over about LOST. Let’s hope Disney doesnt make a mockery out of the best show in TV history when LOST is over- and lets also hope we can watch our Lost actors play parts that wont disappoint simply because they aren’t on the Island…

After watching this I went and found the following information on his new ABC show which he claims is the next Lost :

It is apparently similar in style to Twin Peaks (yes!!!!). Set in a small town dealing with a murder, its first crime in seven years, it focuses mainly on the town sheriff who has to solve the case. I can’t wait to see this actor in another show, especially one reminiscent of Twin Peaks, sounds like TV heaven to me!!

Let’s start with some short non Lost questions. What’s the best band ever?
Ever? Ooo! That’s a bold question. It’s hard to deny the Stones although I listen to the Beach Boys more often.

Who’s the most famous person on your mobile phone?
J.J. Abrams?

What’s guaranteed to make you mad?
If anyone hurts my dog.

What’s your most extravagant purchase ever?
A painting.

What’s the most outrageous thing you’ve ever heard about yourself?
That I’m a sex symbol.

Who would you most like to go to the pub with for one hour?
Shane MacGowan

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
I’m a Ferrari. If they should want to make their movie with say a Hyundai. It doesn’t take away from em being a Ferrari.

What’s been your worst fashion disaster?
I don’t know. I sometimes try to run errands early in the morning in the clothes I’ve slept in.

What’s your favorite smell?
New rain on hot asphalt.

Do you have any recurring dreams?
No, but last night I dreamt a bunch of us were being attacked by hippos that could get up on their hind legs.

What’s your favorite swear word?
I’ll save this question for James Lipton.

What is your favorite part about filming in Hawaii?
Pretty much that. I’m filming in Hawaii. There’s nothing like it.

And what’s the worst part?
Bugs I guess.

What has been your favorite scene of the series to date which included you?
Hmm… I shot one that hasn’t aired yet that I like very much. I can’t say right now though.

And what is your favorite scene without you?
I liked the scene when Locke is trying to convince Jack to push the button. I’m actually in it, but I’m kinda on the sidelines. I just like being a spectator on set for it.

If you could change a scene of a previous episode on Lost, which one would it be, how would you change it and why would you change it?
I’d probably cut the scene where Hurley dips mango in ranch dressing.

I don’t know.

Do you want to know Libby’s back story as much as the fans do?
Yes.

Are you enjoying the Dharma Initiative 70s storyline?
The jumpsuits are a lot of fun.

The information we have on Episode 13 so far implies that Hurley and Miles are going to have a lot of screen time. Would you consider this episode to be a Hurley centric, a Miles centric, or is the focus pretty much equally balanced?
Well it’s not hurley centric.

Does Hurley get some kick-ass lines/scenes in episode 13?
Yes.

What do The Numbers mean to you?
I don’t really think about them too much.

Why do you think Hurley can see Jacob’s Cabin?
Because he’s “touched”

Don’t know. It happened today though.

Yes.

Which character/actor would you like to spend more screen time with?
I don’t know. I enjoy shooting with everybody.

Do you think you’re going to cry when you finished shooting/watching the last scene of season 6?
I might.

A source close to the couple told People “Dad and mom are absolutely thrilled. Everyone’s happy and healthy.”

Daniel Dae Kim spoke to People a couple of months ago and said “He’ll be an incredible dad. When you talk to him about his baby, his face completely lights up.”

Sterling Beaumon who plays the role of young Ben Linus, took time out recently to talk to ZAP2it about his Lost theories, his character’s real age and his thoughts on Benjamin Linus.

Part two of the interview will be available tomorrow.

No outright spoilers are given in this interview, but he does talk about his opinions on what may be happening overall so be warned!

Tomorrow I will Post ZAP2it’s part two of the interview where Sterling reportedly talks about the online Lost community and the end of ‘He’s Our You’.

Source : Zap2it

Zap2it: Tell me about the moment when the performing bug first took hold in your life.

Sterling Beamon: I don’t know…I think it was when my mom took me to a performance of the “Nutcracker” in San Diego, and I thought, “I want to be up there on the stage!” So it sort of evolved from there, and it went into a modeling agent, who said I could do commercials, and then I got a commercial agent, who said I could do TV shows, so I got a theatrical agent, and it kept on evolving.

Zap2it: Would you say that Ben Linus is the role you’re most identified with now?

SB: For adults, it’s definitely Ben. But for kids, it’s the Universal movie “Mostly Ghostly,” which played on the Disney Channel. But you know adults, they don’t want to come up to you and ask a kid, “Aren’t you on blah blah blah?” and get it wrong. So I think adults are almost a little scared to ask. But kids definitely recognize me and come up to me.

Zap2it: “Lost” is notorious for keeping its actors in the dark about the twists and turns ahead in the show. As an actor, how do you play scenes in which your character’s overall arc is in the dark?

SB: It’s really hard, especially because [director] Jack Bender said to me, “Don’t act like Ben, or you’ll ruin what’s coming up,” and I didn’t know what was coming up.

Zap2it: When did Jack tell you this: during “The Man Behind the Curtain,” or your work this season?

SB: My work this season, because in my first episode this season [“Namaste”] Jack told me, “Sterling, act like Ben and you’ll never be on the show again.” Jokingly, of course. What he was saying was that I doing enough of Ben already, and if I tried to, it would just be cheesy and ruin it. He wanted it to be subtle.

Zap2it: So, are you saying you approach Young Ben like a character in and of itself, as opposed to someone that will later be played by Michael Emerson?

SB: I think I’m a little bit of both. I think Ben is a sweet kid, but he has that mean streak, like, if something makes him mad, or he really, really wants something, then he definitely will [act like the older Ben].

Zap2it: That ties into a question from Jake, one of our readers: “What is it like for you to play the younger version of someone we know becomes, at the very least, morally questionable later in their life?”

SB: [laughs] It’s not that hard, it’s just that you have to think about it. You have to think about what you’re doing. Ben as a kid, and Ben [as an adult], he’s always thinking…he always thinks about what’s next. He’s very devious.

Zap2it: I agree, and that brings up something from Season 3: when Ben lets the rabbit go through the sonic fence, is that kind of what you’re talking about?

SB: I think it is. And truthfully, I have questions if that was really his rabbit. Or maybe that’s where Marvin Candle got the idea about testing on rabbits.

Zap2it: During his first meeting with Richard, do you think Ben has any sense of his future destiny, or do you think he’s simply someone seeking to escape his life?

SB: I just played it as someone who wants to get the heck out of there.

Zap2it: A few of the Zap2it readers want to know: After wrapping “Curtain,” did you get any clue from the “Lost” production staff that you might come back at some point?

SB: Well, not from the production staff. But all the makeup people, and the wardrobe people, and the hair people, and a lot of the crew said, “Sterling, you’ll be back, see you soon.” And little did I know, they thought it would be in the near, near future. But when I went back this time it was like a big, big reunion. [In terms of time between appearances], when I first played Ben, he was supposed to be 11-12, but now he’s supposed to be 14-15.

Zap2it: OK, so when Sayid talks about getting a chicken salad sandwich from a 12-year old Benjamin Linus, that’s not literally true?

SB: He’s actually 14 or 15 at that point. But he’s just saying “12” because actually you’ll find out later how old he really is.

Zap2it: Here’s a question our readers wanted to know: how did you enjoy finally working with the rest of the main cast?

SB: It was a lot of fun. The thing is, the first time around, it wasn’t hard to play Ben because I didn’t know who Ben was! I hated the show before I was on it because it was a competitor of another show I was on ABC, and the other show that I guest starred on kept getting pre-empted because of “Lost.” And I absolutely hated “Lost” for that reason. So when I met people, I hadn’t really watched enough of it to understand the significance of the people. So I had met Michael [Emerson] and Josh [Holloway], but I didn’t realize how big they were to the show. So this last time, when I was actually working with a lot of them, I was like, “Oh my gosh…you’re Jack! You’re Ben! You’re Sawyer! You’re Kate!”

Zap2it: You just mentioned Michael Emerson. Have you two actually talked behind the scenes, trying to develop the character together? What advice has he given you about the role, if anything?

SB: Well, we really haven’t. I mean, before I didn’t know a lot about Ben, and he didn’t give me any pointers. But this last time, since I’m a big fan of the show now, and watch it like an addict, I actually talked theories with him, and he had some pretty interesting ones.

Zap2it: OK, such as? Give me one.

SB: One that we both sorta think is true: Locke and Ben are brothers. Because their mom has the same name, so same mom and different dads…or maybe even the same dad, we don’t know who Locke’s father is!

Zap2it: Now you’ve got me intrigued. Have any other ones you can share with us?

SB: You remember Marvin Candle’s kid in the beginning of Season 5? I believe that’s Miles. And I know one of those [two theories] is true, because I once ran into Damon Lindelof, and asked him if any of these three theories is true. The first one is that Annie is Charlotte. And of course now we know that’s not true because we saw Young Charlotte at the age of three when Annie would be my age. So the only two left are “Ben and Locke are brothers” and “Miles is Marvin Candle’s kid,” and Damon said, “One of those is true.” But he never said that more than one of them isn’t, so I think both of them are.

Matthew claimed he is a big fan of Lost, but knows that after being stereotyped on television as Chandler Bing from friends, his chances are slim.

Matthew says, “I want to be on that show so bad, but people would be like, ‘What’s Chandler doing on the island?’ So it isn’t going to happen. But I am truly addicted to the show. I even follow the story lines online.”

Knowing this it seems Matthew Perry is possibly a blog and forum follower like the rest of us, you never know who is lurking!

Speaking at the premiere of her new film ‘Fast And Furious’ , she said “You know I am tired of coming up with theories, because every single time I come up with a damn theory you know, there goes JJ Abrams to pop that theory and turn it to s**t”

Michelle previously played the role of Ana-Lucia in Lost, an ex-police officer who was in the tailsection of the plane. She also said “So I don’t know what to say now, I am scared that he might pop my theory again. So I am just gonna keep shut and wait for the answer. You know, patiently like the rest of the world.”

From the past to the future, the time for ‘Lost’ has arrived

“The big questions we posed in the finale are things we address right out of the box: We saw the island disappear. Where did it go and, more importantly, when did it go? What happened to the people who were on the island?” executive producer Carlton Cuse says.

The Emmy-winning drama won’t dawdle charting the course of the Oceanic 6, the group of castaways who escaped the mysterious isle, as troubled leader Jack (Matthew Fox) tries to persuade his comrades to go back. “That’ll actually happen, probably earlier than people think,” says Fox, who says Jack realizes that his effort to save castaways has imperiled them.

The pace, which had become too slow for some viewers, revved up — both in telling stories and resolving mysteries — after the 2007 decision to end the series after six seasons, cast members say. The next season won critical praise.

With no end date, the writers “had to leave as many doors open as possible just in case they had to carry the show on for another eight years or five years,” says Evangeline Lilly (Kate). With a date determined, “it was like a sailboat sitting on stale waters and suddenly the wind picks up. Everybody felt refreshed and excited.”

If the producers are responding to fans by answering questions quickly, they also are asking more from them as Wednesday’s two-hour premiere starts Lost on its final 34 hours.

Always a mix of adventure, romance, humor, mystery and sci-fi, Lost will delve deeper into science. Real space-time and time-travel theories mixed with Lost’s own physics will help explain the disappearance of the island.

Earlier episodes with Desmond (Henry Ian Cusick) laid out a Lost rule: You can’t change your destiny. Desmond’s mental ability to move through time and space makes him a “wild card,” executive producer Damon Lindelof says.

“The show is getting vastly intricate as it moves into its end game, and the degree of difficulty is increasing,” he says. “It’s like college: Senior year should be harder than freshman year, but it’s all the more fulfilling, and hopefully everyone will get their degrees.”

Keeping loyal fans happy

He and Cuse, long Lost partners, know that approach isn’t likely to draw new viewers, but they hope to reward dedicated fans and recapture some who’ve dropped off.

Last season, Lost averaged 13.3 million viewers (No. 20 in viewers; No. 10 in young adults), a solid showing but part of a gradual decline since its premiere in 2004.

Character stories remain at Lost’s core, producers say, and details of relationships, such as the Ben Linus (Michael Emerson)-Charles Widmore (Alan Dale) rivalry, are integral to the story.

Heretofore unknown connections will be revelatory. A familiar face, the late Ana Lucia (Michelle Rodriguez), reappears in the premiere.

“You got used to certain personality types among our beloved Lost-aways. Some of them are revealing secret sides to their nature now. Some are being placed in higher and more dramatic profile,” Emerson says.

Fans interested in the romantic quadrangle of Jack, Kate, Sawyer (Josh Holloway) and Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell) will see significant developments.

“You know there’s always another side to the square. Just keep flipping the Rubik’s Cube around and you’ll find another story,” Holloway says.

Mysteries will be revealed

Viewers also will learn what Sawyer said to Kate before jumping from the helicopter carrying the Oceanic 6 away from the island, one of last season’s unanswered questions.

“Even more than the mythology of the island, the mystery of who these people are is what we really feel drives our stories,” Cuse says.

Multiple storytelling techniques, including the signature flashbacks and flash-forwards, will propel Lost.

The show is now divided in time between the remaining castaways, dealing with the immediate aftermath of the island’s disappearance, and the mainline lives of the Oceanic 6, whose stories are happening up to three years later.

“It feels like we’re working on two different shows,” says Yunjin Kim, whose Sun is one of the Oceanic 6. “I saw Elizabeth the other day and I was like, ‘Hey, how are you? How is your show going?’ “

Island historians should be satisfied at the season’s end, Cuse says, as more is revealed about what happened there before the crash of Oceanic 815 that launched the series.

On the mainland, a big mystery remains: What did Locke (Terry O’Quinn), now Jeremy Bentham, say to the former islanders, including Walt (Malcolm David Kelley), who as a young castaway played with the dog Vincent? And how did Bentham end up in a casket?

Once members of the Oceanic 6, and possibly others, get back to the island, learning what they must do next and how they might save themselves will lay the groundwork for the sixth season and a definitive conclusion, producers say.

“We do believe that the ending of the show will be a resolution, and one that will be satisfying,” Cuse says.

“It’s not like it’s going to be a copout, that it all took place in a snow globe or in the dog’s mind.”

Adds Lindelof: “Or in a snow globe in the dog’s mind.”

Warning for anyone who doesn’t read titles…there’s a spoiler below…

All I want for Christmas is a spoiler about Juliet from Lost. — Samy
MATT:

Hmmm. Since we have missed that Yuletide deadline, how about I promise you a present in time for, I dunno, St. Patrick’s Day? Because sadly, the lady doc’s Season 5 storyline won’t really heat up until then. (But once it does, it’ll be in a way that makes some fans very happy.)

 

Here’s a relationship prediction for season 5:

Sawyer ends up with both Kate and Juliet. Jack will have a new love interest in Rose, who has recently lost Bernard due to flaming arrows on the beach. Those two do have some history…
