Lost Writers Eye The End

What do you think the final image of Lost will be? Vincent's Snow-Globe? Someone's Eye? A Dharma Logo? Put your guesses here and we'll see who was right in 2.5 years time.

Producers of ABC's Lost told SCI FI Wire they know how the show will end, though the series finale won't happen until 2010. The producers even know what the final shot will look like, they said in interviews.

Co-creator and executive producer Damon Lindelof said that the writers will be working toward the end of the series over the next two years. "We always knew the ending," he said. "We just didn't know how much time to take before we got there. So, yes, it still completely fits with where we're at in the storytelling right now."

Lost will become more focused because the end is in sight, the producers added. "With 48 episodes to go, it's exciting to be working towards an endpoint we're already familiar with," Lindelof said.

During a press conference for the release of the Lost season-three DVD set on Dec. 11, executive producer Carlton Cuse said that the show will be using flash-forward scenes, but warned cryptically that "it would be wrong to think that the flash-forward you saw is the end of the series." Viewers got their first glimpse at a possible future in the third-season finale last spring.

Cuse added that he already has the final image of the series in mind. "Yes, we do know what the last image of the show is," Cuse said. "And it won't be a black screen!" he added, alluding to the controversial cut that ended HBO's The Sopranos.

Chuck/Lost Crossover

In last nights episode of Chuck, there was a brief but funny reference to Lost and in particular Oceanic Flight 815. Thanks to everyone who emailed in with this info. Below is the particular clip in question.

Here are the scans of the LOST Magazine Cover Story "Femme Fatales".



There really wasn't anything in the magazine we haven't heard or read before but this from the interview with M.C. Gainey was pretty funny after all the speculation about his character's sexuality.

Amongst all the darkness of season three, what's the funniest memory of the shoot?

M.C.: The funniest thing is that when they brought me back, the first scene I was in during the first episode was Kate in the shower. She said, "I'm not taking a shower in front of you," and I said, "Kate, you're not my type." Well, I'm sure you know what the blogs did from that moment on, so I began to try to play that [laughs]!

There wasn't much I could do for a while because I was a turnkey - most of what I did was lock them in cells, but I tried to flirt with Sawyer and certainly tried to flirt with Jack. I handled him with kid gloves and worshipped him and gazed at him from afar. There wasn't much I got to do with it, but it was in my thoughts, I began to think that way, and I looked at Jack that way. He wasn't just a prisoner; he was Jack. It's not hard to play that because Matthew is a really dynamic guy. He's got that charisma thing that everyone on the island agrees with. If Kate's not Tom's type then Jack is! Tom's attraction to Jack got me through the first half of the season [laughs]!
