Lost Media

You’re playing a skewed version of Claire this season—much like Terry O’Quinn’s not-quite-Locke. What’s it like?
I come back in a unique fashion, so to speak, which creatively has been amazing. One of the things about doing a television show for six years is you’re playing that exact same character every day—whereas you really can’t get bored on Lost.

What’s your favorite part about being back?
The best has been scenes when we’re all together—like it was during the first season—which doesn’t happen a lot. Just hearing Naveen [Andrews, who plays Sayid] and Terry playing guitar in the jungle and hanging out in the middle of these beautiful banyan trees, swatting off mosquitoes…

We hear one of you Losties may turn out to have an extra-special connection to the island.
The ongoing question has been, “Why am I there, and what is my purpose?” This season brings out a lot of good and evil in people, with people being excited, nervous and scared when informed of their possible destinies.

What would you wish for Claire’s future?
I think Claire should be reunited with Aaron. That would be great. There has been so much theorizing about Aaron [being] the key to everything. I really don’t know, but I think there must be something special with him.

1. Best Resurrection: Death is ever-present on Lost, but we weren’t prepared for two within the first hour. (R.I.P., Juliet!) Efforts to heal a mortally wounded Sayid by bathing him in a sacred pool at The Temple appear to fail. Even super-savior Jack’s CPR ministrations are useless. But in the mind-bending episode’s closing moments, Sayid suddenly bolts upright and asks, “What happened?” We’re kind of wondering the same thing.

TVGuide.com: The show raises a lot of questions, but is there anything that fans have focused on that you never intended to be a big deal?
Cuse: The polar bears. We sort of felt like we explained the polar bears. We saw polar bear cages. We saw Sawyer locked in a polar bear cage. But people were still like, “What’s up with those polar bears?” That seems to be kind of an obsession. Libby has also been an obsession.
Lindelof: The new obsession is basically, “How many questions are you guys going to answer?” And people are asking us that like Carlton and I are gonna go, “87. We’re just not going to tell you which ones.” Or, “What percentage of the mysteries are you going to answer?” But that doesn’t take into account the fact that some people consider some things mysteries that other people don’t consider mysteries at all or don’t care about. So we basically say, every mystery that is relevant to the characters on [Flight] 815, if they don’t care about it, then it’s probably not going to be answered. So if it’s relevant to them or they’re asking a question, then it’s something that we’re going to deal with. But that’s the story that we’re telling.

TVGuide.com: Is the reset going to be a theme of this season or are you playing with the audience?
Cuse: I think it wouldn’t be Lost if we weren’t playing with the audience a little bit, but by the end of the premiere, you’ll have a sense of what we’re doing. We’re still doing the same thing we’ve always done on the show, which is island storytelling and off-island storytelling. It just now starts to take on a different form in the final season. Like every season, each season is a distinct entity, so by the end of the premiere, you should have a sense of what Season 6 is shaping up to be like.

He’s been shot, repeatedly beaten to bloody hell, circled by a hungry shark, chased by a Smoke Monster, electrocuted and locked in a polar-bear cage with only decades-old fish biscuits for sustenance. But James “Sawyer” Ford’s greatest adversary has long been Josh Holloway, who decreed early on that his wily hillbilly deserved to die as karmic penance for years spent conning the innocent.

But with just four months left of filming on the final season of Lost, the 40-year-old actor has had a change of heart. He’s lobbying for a stay of execution. “After six years, I love this character—he’s a living, breathing part of me,” says Holloway. “And I think he deserves a second chance to rectify some things he’s done. It would be a shame if he were not given that opportunity. I’d feel cheated.”

This newfound compassion sprang to life sometime between the shooting of last season’s explosive finale, in which Sawyer failed to save his sweetheart, Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell), and the first few episodes of the coming season, which finds Sawyer wrestling with deep guilt.

#9. Josh Holloway, Lost

What a pleasant surprise to find out that a few years trapped in the 1970s Dharma Initiative transformed shifty con man James “Sawyer” Ford” into heroic leader Jim LaFleur. Holloway’s delicate shift in character retained Sawyer’s rakish charm, but imbued him with a welcome sense of gravitas.
