Lost
Spoilers (Page 2)

Most of the Lost news and Lost spoilers that have been publicized this summer have been focused on the possible return of characters such as Charlie and Shannon.

But what about those that are destined to perish on the island?

While not claiming to have any first-hand knowledge of upcoming scripts, Michael Emerson told Entertainment Weekly that he doesn't see the show ending on the happiest of notes.

"I don't think Lost will have a happy ending," the actor said. "It's the end and I think we are going to start seeing more casualties. I would put money on major characters being killed. I believe it will be a sad ending to the show - or at least bittersweet. I think it will definitely be a series finale for grownups."

In other words: sorry, prognosticators, but Lost will not end with the reveal that this is all a reality show and those remaining on the island have won a million dollars. Darn.

While Ben Linus is known and remembered for many things on Lost, one fact about him is often overlooked:

In the love triangle that sprung up around Jack, Sawyer and Juliet, it's easy to forget that Ben once crushed hard on this fellow Other.

So, in the wake of her apparent death, how will the ultimate manipulator react?

"Ben's no longer in a position to entertain romantic notions," Emerson told E! News when asked that question. "I don't think there's room for romance in Ben's world right now. As much as he admires her on a lot of levels, I don't think he can do anything about it."

That's all the actor could offer. After all, he recently admitted that the cast doesn't have knowledge of any actual Lost spoilers.

We expected Emilie de Ravin to return as Claire for the final season of Lost.

And Dominic Monaghan reprising the role of Charlie isn't shocking.

However, the revival of Shannon is an unexpected twist, yet it's one actress Maggie Grace has been teasing over the last few weeks.

When asked about returning to the ABC hit, Grace told E! News:

"I'm looking forward to visiting Hawaii soon. I don't know why..."

So, does this mean Shannon is really coming back? The actress wouldn't actually say, of course, merely offering:

"I think that they are brilliant writers. If they found the right reason, then I'm sure I would be on."

As for her on-screen brother, don't get too excited about Ian Somerhalder joining Grace in Hawaii: he's busy shooting The Vampire Diaries.

At the 49th Annual Monte Carlo Television Festival, Matthew Fox opened up about season six of Lost.

The man that plays Jack Shepherd didn't reveal any major secrets to E! News, but he did make it clear that viewers won't be disappointed.

Here are a few excerpts from his interview:

On the series finale: [It will] incredibly powerful, very sad and beautiful... I think is going to be pretty awesome.

On the Smoke Monster: I think it is going to be very satisfying and cathartic and redemptive and beautiful. I've talked to Damon pretty extensively and every time I talk to him it's sort of surprising how moving it is just to talk about it.

The sixth season will kick off with an examination of what happened after Juliet apparently detonated the hydrogen bomb: "It's very surprising and probably fairly confusing initially to the audience," Fox said.

Confusion on Lost? Now we've heard everything!

In closing, Fox explained the linear progression of the show's final season:

"Like a third of the way in [to the season] I would guess we are going to [settle] in one time frame and it will be very linear - no more flashbacks, nothing. It will be on the island and sort of a final conflict to the end."

We don't exactly embrace Twitter as a source for television news, but this potential Lost spoiler is too juicy to ignore.

E! News has called attention to a Tweet by someone named Josh Cohen that reads:

"Lost Scoop: Charlie (Dominic Monaghan) returns for 4 episodes, Clarie (Emily De Ravin [sic]) for full-season, Shannon (Maggie Grace) for 6 episodes!"

It's worth emphasising, as we don't wish to lose credibility, that we cannot verify this source in any way. We can report that insider close to the show have said: "No deals have been made yet."

As for Charlie Pace, Dominic Monaghan is rumored to have landed a role on Flash Forward. His rep won't let the Lost return rumors die, however: "He might or might not be back on Lost... You'll just have to stay tuned."

We will, trust us.

In the meantime, how could Charlie and/or Shannon come back? Many theorize that the explosion of the pre-built Hatch in the season finale will reset the series timeline. If that's the case, these character deaths never would have taken place and maybe everyone will be seen in their pre-island lives and...

... our heads hurt. January 2010 can't come fast enough.

While it's no surprise that Emilie de Ravin will be reprising her role as Claire on season six on Lost, Ausiello did just break the news that de Ravin will be a series regular during the sixth and final season!

Series creator, Carlton Cuse says "Damon and I are very excited to bring Claire back to the show and even more excited for people to experience just how she will return."

Ooh, so just how will she return?  EW's resident Lost expert, Doc Jensen guesses:

"Any scenario that brings Claire back to Lost must address the mysterious circumstances of her disappearance at the end of season 4, in which many of us were led to believe that she was as dead -- or rather, undead -- as the Ghost Christian that's been haunting The Island since season 1. So here's one thought: Juliet changed time in the season finale by detonating Jughead, and season 6 will tell the story of the new timeline, one in which Claire is alive."

Jensen continues with another theory:

"In light of the revelation that John Locke was actually a supernatural impostor for half of season 5, perhaps in season 6, we'll get a storyline in which Claire just emerges out of the jungle, with no memory of what happened to her -- just like season 1 -- and we and the castaways will be left to wonder: Is this the real Claire or another impostor infiltrating them a la Locke? Heck, maybe that's going to be the major idea of next season: Who's really alive and who's really (un)dead? It really will be the fabled zombie season of Lost."

With Elizabeth Mitchell signed on to star in V, the fate of Micthell's future on Lost is certainly in question.  It definitely doesn't help that her character, Juliet, appears to have died on the season five finale.

Now, according to Entertainment Weekly's Ausiello Files, we shouldn't expect to season Mitchell appear in more than two episodes of Lost's final season.

If it helps you get over the loss, you can watch this first look at V. It actually looks pretty good!

The Lost season five finale is just a little over 24 hours away and we know you can't last that long.  That's why we have four sneak peeks at the episode for you.

In this first clip from "The Incident," Jack and Sayid try and figure out how to dismantle the bomb.  Watch below:

In the second clip, a trapped Kate tries to enlist Sawyer's help.  Watch after the jump.

Lost season five comes to an end next Wedesday with its finale episode, "The Incident."  Co-creator Damon Lindelof, who co-penned the finale episode, told Ausiello Files, "All I will say is that it is time for the time travel craziness to end."

Lindelof continues, "And once it does end, something very, very surprising will happen in its wake. It is a little bit of a game-changer."

In much more spoilery news, Jorge Gracia said, "People will find out why [Hurley] got on the plane and how he came to get that guitar case in his hands."

Gracia confesses, ""I've been wondering about that, too. I remember at one point asking a question about it and getting a, 'We don't know yet.' I had to ask once, 'How heavy is it? Is it just a guitar? Is it something else? How heavy is it supposed to be?' Sometimes I get an empty case to lug around in a scene and sometimes it has a guitar in it, but we don't actually know what's in it because that has not been [revealed] yet."

Garcia continues, "It could be a case full of food or money or guns or papers or anything. So you see me get the case by the finale, but I don't know that we will find out what's in it. It was hard for me to play because at first I did not understand why Hurley would have ever changed his mind about going back to the island, and I'm sure fans are thinking the same thing. So it will be nice to be able to give them that information."

This week's episode of Lost marks the penultimate episode of the season.  With it you can sure expect a lot do go down and we have three preview clips from the episode for you.

In this first clip from "Follow the Leader," Radzinsky attempts to torture Sawyer to get whatever information he can from him.  We all know that's very little.

In the second clip, Kate and Jack disagree on how to procede when they hear gunshots coming from the camp.  Follow the jump to watch.
