Here is a breakdown of the Paley Center Panel with the LOST cast and crew.

Thanks to NoOne for the heads up and E! Online for the details.

NOTE: There are details of a sneak peek that was shown as well.

1. Jack's baby momma (mother of David Shephard in the flash-sideways world) IS somebody we've met before. Juliet? Kate? Sara? Hmm...

2. We probably will see Walt again. "[Malcolm David Kelley] absolutely would still be on the show," Carlton Cuse said, "but the actor aged." Damon Lindelof: "We are working on a way to bring Walt back before Lost is all said and done."

3. Damon: "Ilana and Richard will say things to each other and about each other in the future."

4. Terry O'Quinn is "playing a guy who we're not going to see until the finale." (Eeeee!)

5. Someone IS coming to the island.

6. Matthew Abbadon will not return.

7. We will get an answer to Libby and Hurley and their connection in the past.

8. Vincent will be back.

9. The finale is being written right now. Episode 15 was just shot this week in Hawaii.

10. Damon says there's no need for an island to have a Lost-themed ride at Disney World: "Just put people in a black room, spin them around and punch them in the face and tell them 'You just had the Lost experience.'"

11. Will we find out if there really was a bird on the island that said "Hurley" as it flew by? "That is on our list of things to explain."

12. When asked if we'll find out what happened to Annie, Ben's childhood sweetheart, Carlton says "We don't want to say. Probably not."

13. The gang's back together! While answering an unrelated Q, Terry O'Quinn mentioned: "A whole bunch of the cast is working together again."

14. There will be more for Charlie fans.

15. Alan Dale aka Charles Widmore will return.

16. Whether Jacob actually ever furnished a list of candidates to Ben or The Others is speculative...and might have been Ben lying to get the surgery from Jack.

17. A clip was shown for next week's episode in which Sayid says "apparently, I'm evil," Miles tells Sayid he was dead and says "Whatever brought you back it wasn't them (Temple people)," and Claire storms into the Temple telling Dogen that "He" wants to talk to him.

Check back later for exclusive interviews with the cast and producers of Lost, and Modern Family too.

In the meantime, what does this all mean for the very end? How does the whole cast come together again? Discuss!

Thanks to Matt for the following.

Episode 12 will be a Hurley Centric episode. I took this video and posted it awhile ago but this is it again for episode 12. This video shows Desmond on the island with Locke. Sawyer was there also but did not come over to say hi, so we know now that they'll be together later on in the season eventually. Also if you could, please subscribe to my channel, I'd greatly appreciate it. I also have other LOST filming vids on my channel as well! Thanks again! -Matt.

UPDATE: So our source has confirmed that scheduled to be film was a scene for Year 23 with kids portraying younger versions of characters. The speculation was MiB and Jacob.

Hey All,
A very reliable source has just sent over the following tidbits for scheduled filming?

I asked them if "23AD" meant a year but got no reply. I assume this could be what they are hinting at.

What else could it mean??

Here you go:

Beach camp. Children. 23AD.

Thanks to NoOne for the heads up.

Spoiler Alert: Did we just uncover the identity of one of the impending casualties Michael Emerson told us about at the Lost premiere?

If we read between the lines of what Michael spilled Thursday night while accompanying his lovely wife, True Blood's Carrie Preston, to the Costume Designer's Guild Awards, one of the Losties we love watching best may be a goner. He also gave us the scoop on freaky-deaky alterna-Ben, the high school teacher...

"You'll see the biggest Ben episode ever in the next two weeks," says Michael, which first left us in a tizzy of excitement (come on, you know Ben episodes are always the best!). But it's what he tells us next that's cause for concern: "It's a big one, and it may be the last one of the Ben episodes...it's worth watching."

Now, you'll have to interpret his statement as you see fit, but as far as we can tell, this leaves us with two options: Ben is not long for both the real and/or sideways worlds, or Michael was simply referring to the decreasing number of Lost episodes remaining before the finale. And while the latter seems much more logical since this cast is full of lip-zipping pros, isn't there a teensy chance we just witnessed a rare occurrence in which one of the most beloved Losties around tricked us with such a straightforward response? Just a thought.

As for the new version of Ben we've yet to get to know, Michael promises that his brief introduction was not smoke and mirrors—this Ben is a great guy!

"There's more of that to come. That's Ben's flash-sideways, and I can't tell you if that's realer than the island existence that we already know of," he explains. "I haven't gotten it figured out yet."

What he has figured out is the way this guy works. "Think of it this way—he has all the same characteristics that Ben has, but they're in different quantities. He has some of the same urges or fantasies, but they're not as powerful with him," Michael tells us. Simply put: "He's more of a regular guy."

Does this regular guy become besties with one wheelchair-bound John Locke (Terry O'Quinn)?

"They have an important relationship," Michael teases with that deliciously devious little grin of his. "Yeah...friends," is all he'll say of their status.

What's your take on Michael's slick reveal—is it just wordplay or is Ben doomed? And how excited are you to see Locke and Ben all buddy-buddy?

Thanks to Tara for the heads up.

Among the other teases Garcia is willing to share? Hold on to your Oceanic armrests!
1. Hurley will not be the only person with the ability to actually see the dead this season.
2. Major character deaths are on the way. “We’ve lost people,” reports Garcia, who began shooting episode 15 of 18 this week. “We have moments of going, ‘Oh, man, we’re the only ones left.’ I guess now that the show’s ending, [the writers] can pretty much wipe us off the planet.”

Thanks to NoOne, TheLeftFoot, Matt and Tara for the heads up.

Question: Can you tell me if any of the following Losties will get a centric episode by season’s end: Miles, Ilana, Lapidus, or Claire? —Stephen
Ausiello: No, no, no, and no. At least as of 6.15. And my guess is the final hours won’t center on anyone. The good news: You’ll see a lot of those four in other people’s sideways arcs.

Latest Spoilers from E! Online About Hurley and the Island

WHAT LIES AHEAD:

Who's Good and Who's Evil? Jorge Garcia tells me this: "I don't think Hurley is going to be turn-able. Like I don't think he can…turn dark. I mean, it'd be interesting if there was a flash of that." So perhaps some of the candidates cannot be touched/claimed by MIB? Clearly Hurley has to wind up a good guy.

What Is the Island? That very huge question will be answered in less time than you think--somewhere around halfway through the season, according to sources. Awesome, right? And you know who's going to help deliver the message? The fantastic, ever-youthful guyliner model Mr. Richard Alpert (Nestor Carbonell) and his longtime friend Jacob (Mark Pellegrino). It's gonna be good.

So…What Is the Island? It's described as a four-letter word. There's your first clue! Shall we play Hangman? There are no A's or E's in the word…Wanna buy another vowel? Okay, but you only get one.

Another thing I can tell you: The island has to exist, according to my sources, and more importantly, someone has to protect it. It's important to the world outside.

Thanks to VerucaBoy and Rosalind. Here are some spoilery tidbits.

So how much filming do you have left?
Four episodes; a little less than two months. I came to Hawaii this weekend for a Vanity Fair photo shoot but I'm going back to L.A. tomorrow—they don't need me for another ten days. I've had three episodes off, which is really unusual...

He said with a Ben Linus-ian sense of foreboding?
No, no, I'm not done or anything like that; it's just that my storyline...they have other fish to fry for a while.

And I'm sure there are some classic Benjamin moments left for us.
The eulogy was one, but there's some priceless stuff coming up. In three or four weeks, people will think differently about Ben.

Are we going to learn any more about these rules Ben and Charles Widmore talked about?
I haven't seen anything, and that's always been a big question in my mind. What the heck was the contest? What were the rules? I think the rules are among the big, final reveal. If we see that answered, that's a finale answer, I think.

Have you filmed another Ben/Widmore faceoff?
No, I haven't, but I expect it imminently. That battle is unfinished. The first scene with those two, that's definitely in my top five.

Thanks to Andie for the heads up.

So Claire is crazy, huh?
[Laughs] In a nutshell, yes!

Funny you say the word "nutshell" because I've heard something about a squirrel baby ...
Mmmhmmm ... I've made myself a squirrel child out of squirrel bones and some kind of fur and little button eyes. He's real cute.

Obviously you can't just disappear with your father in that cabin for a full season and not have repercussions, so is this what's happened?
Yeah, she's been three years, living on her own, making her own housing and food and protecting herself. The only person she's had contact with as a friend is Locke -- who's not really Locke anymore. So any information that she's been given about what's going on with other people or the Island is from him. And there are maybe some things that are not the whole truth. He's led her to believe that the Others have her baby at the Temple, so that's been her whole plan this last three years, to get him back. Finding out that he's off the Island and Kate is bringing him up is just like a complete, complete shock to her. So there's an interesting relationship with Claire and Kate now -- a combination of animosity, to say the least, and also respect and thanks. So that's been fun playing with.

So since you're the one playing it, do you think there's a way she can snap out of it? Or will Claire just end up on the Island still crazy?
I mean, the evolution this season for her character is sort of coming back to who Claire was. You know, she's still there, underneath it all, even though she's pretty damn loopy. There's still flickers of who Claire is and was, and maybe will be again. Or not.

I found this to be an interesting call for a scene in 6-15. Jacob, "Man in Black" and "mother" are the characters.

Just a few other things

- They are taking down the temple set that has been up at Diamond Head Studios since the beginning of the season as well as clearing out the whole stage.
- I saw them building a new small outdoor set. I THINK it is the interior of a sub. Like a sub cabin. Not sure why they are building it outside, unless they want to poor water into it. :)

Thanks to our friend Natalie Abrams from TV Guide for the following article about the return of Michael and Libby.

Sure, Harold Perrineau's character, Michael Dawson, died, but that doesn't mean he can't return to Lost. TVGuide.com sat down with with Perrineau in Hawaii after he shot his return to Lost to find out how Michael will interact with both Hurley (Jorge Garcia) and Libby (Cynthia Watros), whom Michael killed, in a way that will surprise even die-hard fans.

Among Michael's many acts of deception, most serious was that he murdered Ana Lucia (Michelle Rodriguez) and Libby in cold blood in Season 2. Since then, the estranged father has been trying to rectify mistakes and, according to Perrineau, he just may get it — despite being dead. In fact, he says, Michael is going to apologize to Libby.

"I did get to apologize," Perrineau says. "Every time I did it, it was really emotional. There was something really nice about it. It's not just apologizing to her, but to Hurley as well."

Co-star Garcia shared the same sentiments. "It played really well. When we did the rehearsal for it, I found myself getting way more emotional than I thought I was going to."

Michael's apology springs from his search for redemption this season. "That's what he's been trying to do since he came back originally," Perrineau says. "That's what Michael has been doing since the Ana Lucia-Libby episode, trying to find some redemption."

Ana Lucia, who Michael also murdered, won't be getting an apology though. "She was in his way," says Perrineau. "She was going to kill Ben. You see how good Michael Emerson is on the show, right? If she'd have killed him, we would've missed all that. You should be thanking me!"

So will Libby and Michael be incarnations of the Smoke Monster like the now-dead Locke? "I'm totally the ghost of Michael," Perrineau says, though he questions if every dead character we've seen has been a form of either Jacob or the Man in Black. Added Garcia: "I'm pretty confident that Libby is not the Man in Black when you see her."

As for the alternate timeline where our Lostaways are living and breathing, Perrineau said we won't be seeing an off-island Michael. "Unless they are using some old footage, as far as I know, Michael is only dead this season." Garcia added an ominous "we'll see" for the status of Libby being alive off the island.

Executive Producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse discuss the numbers, Claire, zombies and the Flash-sideways.


Posted by DarkUFO

What are we to make of Lost’s perplexing temple master? He tried to drown and poison Sayid. Then in the February 23 episode, he turns up in Jack’s flash-sideways as a father advising Jack to be a hands-on dad. And exec producer Damon Lindelof says, on March 2, “Dogen’s mysterious origins and history with the island are finally revealed” as he faces off with Sayid. I tracked down actor Hiroyuki Sanada in his native Tokyo to find out more. Turns out the actor has a history with Matthew Fox. They became drinking buddies in Berlin while shooting “Speed Racer,” then continued their friendship (and drinking) in Tokyo when Matthew was promoting Lost. “I never imagined working with him again in Hawaii,” says Hiro, whose swordplay in films like “The Last Samurai” turned Lost producers into fans.

In the March 2 episode, we’ll learn why Dogen left Japan for a new life on the island. Hiro hints his appearance in Jack’s flash-sideways suggests that Dogen’s paternal influence may be realized in the temple. Also significant is the name of Dogen’s hippie translator, Lennon (as in the peace-loving Beatle), as well as Dogen’s name and costume, modeled after a 13th-century monk who introduced Zen meditation to Japan. “I believe Dogen and Sayid will experience some kind of friendship in the end,” Hiro says. “Temples are built for peace and saving people.”

Though he’s now back in Tokyo (which doesn’t bode well for his Lostgevity), last month he took boss Carlton Cuse out to a karaoke bar, where the EP belted out “Proud Mary.” And he’s expected to return Stateside in the spring to promote his role as Anthony Hopkins’ longtime boyfriend in the James Ivory film “The City of Your Final Destination.” Hiro quips: “Being Hannibal Lecter’s lover was a big challenge.”

Update: 12:00 Thanks to Chris for emailing me this extra info.

in the day we saw them filming at the ajira plane set, it was locke coming out of the planes front door. down what appeared to be a bamboo built stair way....he would come out, and was having some sort of dialogue withs ome other characters.

later as they started filming down by the wing more and what not, we could FINALLY see, and it would appear that he was talking to some of the losties. including Sawyer, Sayid, Claire, & Jack. It's possible that kate and or hurley was there, but we couldn't see them at all....

but that was basically the day shoot.

then in the night they started shooting some beach scenes. NOT at the survivor camp, but they were at police beach, a little ways down between the ajira plane and the survivor camp, it was just some basic beach scenes.

we watched the stunt doubles for jack and sawyer go in the water, and essentially from what i saw, jack was pulling a very wet and passed out sawyer, and was trying to wake him up or w/e. and it hurley was coming over with kate, and she seemed to have maybe been injured, since hurley was helping her over with her arm on his shoulder.

this scene included jack kate sawyer and hurley.
we eventually left. because it was sprinkling, and they kept moving us around, although they were very nice to us, it became a pain in the ass. especially since they would tell us they were just moving us out of the shot, when i m not stupid and could use my eyes, not to mention the fact that i ve worked on many films and video shoots to know which way the camera was facing and what they are doing....and so on. they were just being a pain. even though we know that we can do whatever we want ON the beach, we decided to give them a break and just leave earlier....


BTW, this IS episode 14. i CAN confirm that.
and for the record, not all of the filming is ALWAYS for that certain episode.
my g/f and i were at the temple set recently and found a shot list for episode 6. and it appeared to be alot of pick ups. and was dated for feb 01. so they have apparently been shooting a number of pick ups as well...also one of the crew said its likel they ll be extending their shooting time, because they will need the time...


we've been checkin em out all week, and seen them almost everyday this week.
and will probably keep hunting next week.

Interview with Hiroyuki Sanada aka Dogen

Zap2it: Is "Lost" popular in Japan?
Sanada: Very much. I just came back from Tokyo last night. I did a big event with Carlton — talk shows, press conferences. We got a great reaction there. I was surprised at how big it is in Japan. There is a big audience for "Lost."

Zap2it: How many more episodes are you in this season?
Sanada: I can't tell you exactly how many, but I've already finished my shooting.

Zap2it: But you'll be in a few more, correct?
Sanada: A few more, yes.

Zap2it: What is your read on Dogen and his motivation?
Sanada: He grew up in Japan, and somehow he came to the island. He has a mission, which is studying the island. He's very — he has a lot of loyalty to the mission [and is willing] to sacrifice. I think that's the most important thing to him. And he knows something [laughs].

Zap2it: Do you have a sense of where Dogen fits into the hierarchy of the Others? Does he have any more authority than, say, Ben (Michael Emerson) or Richard (Nestor Carbonell)?
Sanada: I don't know if he's equal, or who knows more or is more important. But he's an important person on the island. Yeah, he's mysterious. [Laughs] He was mysterious for me, too. Every week I'd read the script and realize, "Oh — oh my gosh." I really enjoyed reading the script every week.

Zap2it: Do you think Dogen's view of Jack (Matthew Fox) changed after he was willing to swallow a poison pill in "What Kate Does"?
Sanada: Yes. ... I have many scenes with Jack, and also Sayid [Naveen Andrews]. The two of them are the most important people [to Dogen].

Zap2it: They're who you deal with the most?
Sanada: Yes. And they're great actors, so I was very lucky. I had a great time with them.

Zap2it: Do you know how long Dogen has been on the island?
Sanada: He's been living on the island for about 20 years.

Zap2it: And, without giving too much away, what can we look forward to with the character?
Sanada: It will be clear why he came to the island and what his mission is.

Thanks to Malle for the heads up on this filming report from one of the Admins over at Lostpedia Forums

When I saw filming being done, I saw it first hand. We could see what was going on, but couldn't see it THAT well...until one of the crew let us stand behind the monitors to watch that is. Afterwards, when we were standing with some other fans that were there too, one of the girls was like "was that a knife he put to her throat?"

It was a scene with Hurley and Libby, she was the crazy one and crashing a blind date Hurley's mom set him up on. The doctor from the mental institution came to pull her away...not pull a knife on her. lol I could see how it would look like that from afar, trying to squint your eyes to see a tiny monitor from twenty feet away though.
