Matthew Fox: “I think a lot of the characters are going to die”
Cast and Crew of Lost, Interviews, Season 6 View CommentsThanks to Elaine for the heads up.
Matthew Fox, who plays Jack – the doctor, leader, ‘Oceanic 6′ survivor and love interest of Kate – revealed all about playing his character, his love of travelling and family life in Hawaii.
Casual in jeans, a suit jacket and clutching a bottle of mineral water, the foxy Mr Fox is laid back and friendly. His approach appears in stark contrast to the intensity of his character, Jack Shephard, who – as any Lost fan will attest – has been historically full of angst for one reason or another.
Fox makes it clear from the outset that he was “so happy to get past the corner of Jack.” Although he openly admits he’s “very attracted to characters that are desperately trying to be better,” he expresses his real relief about playing Jack in a new capacity this year: “He’s a very, very different guy this year since he got back to the island.”
Fox goes on to say that things do change as soon as Jack realises “he really is fated to accomplish something on that island, that he’s meant to be there.”
However, the challenge of playing this role is not something Fox passes off lightly. It’s evident that it has been a long hard graft from the way he sighs out loud and without hesitation when speaking of Jack’s despair.
Harking back to the first four years of the show where Jack was taken from a heroic place to a place of sheer and utter desperation, is painful for Fox. He feels that “towards the end there where he was really in that bad place, it was just really tough. The material was really tough and I couldn’t wait to get past that. You don’t just take that off and come home… Sometimes you carry that stuff around with you.”

Here’s a little hint from Damon Lindelof about the final season of LOST:
We’ve been planning out the final season for four years now. And of all the talks we have had about the show, [reuniting all the castaways] is the subject that has come up the most. The ending was almost where we began, and we had to figure out how to get there. It’s like a wedding where the reception is the part that requires the most planning and is the most fun to plan. We’ve exchanged our vows and I am ready to go party.”

Thanks to SL-LOST.com readers Alison and Adrian for sending us some photos of their last trip to Oahu last month!
We visited the Byodo-In Temple, in the valley of the Temples on the windward coast of Oahu. This location is used on LOST as the Korean home of Sun’s Father, and where Jin proposed to Sun in early episodes, and most recently when they flashback in the episode “The Incident” to where Jin & Sun get married. It was built in the 1960′s and is a replica of a 950 year old Temple in Uji, Japan. Its really amazing and I love it even more because of LOST!
