Reiko Aylesworth played Michelle Dessler, federal agent and BFF of Jack Bauer, for several seasons of Fox hit 24--and dated series star Keifer Sutherland in real life. Now the actress is negotiating with ABC over a role in Lost's upcoming fifth season, which will begin in early 2009.
Reiko Aylesworth on 24.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Aylesworth will take the role of Amy, a beautiful and outdoorsy woman who'll quickly become a love interest for one of Lost's leading men. We hear that she'll be around for at least four episodes, but perhaps we'll see even more of her if that love affair proves viable.
Now that we know Aylesworth is joining the cast, the only question left is which of those island-bound hotties will win her heart this season? Let's hear your ideas below!

Can't wait for Lost to start again!
Just because she is signed on for four episodes does NOT mean that's all she'll get. Originally, Michael Emerson was only signed on for a few episodes but then they expanded his role. The same can certainly happen with Reiko.
Can we say "I love Michelle". The now passed on characters from 24 from 2 years ago are being reborn in '09 -- Tony back on 24 from the dead & Michelle now on Lost. Thank goodness they aren't completing on the same nights!
I guess one more character couldnt hurt, but I am pretty lost with the story as it is.
4 Episodes? So its going to be a minor role.. Like Jacks lawyer or sumthing.. Dunno why Jack would need a lawyer but.. =D.It's still great to see her though.

I Happy to see her on lost ....coming from one of my favorite shows to another (like so many others)lol i don't really care who she hooks up with as long as it's not jack (he's got enough drama in his life) and I hope they can get more than four episodes out of her.
What will be interesting is to see how they're going to introduce her: if it's to one of the Oceanic 6, no biggie; if it's to one of the islander folk, then I want to see where they're gonna come up with more people, still LOST on the island
Great news! She's a wonderful actress. I'd like to see her with Sayid or Ben!
Oops, I thought you meant 'which actor will she date' not character?
I bet Ben or Hurley.
NO!NO MORE CHARACTERS!!!!
She's a decent actress not to mention very attractive. I can see her with Jack.
This is great cant wait to see her in season 5. I'm thinking the character could be Jack.
Awesome
my two favorite shows collide! SWEET!
i think its great she was one of my favorite chracters on 24 so it should be nice seing her in lost
WOW
Oh come on it's got to be Sayid. I know it's been done but the writers never seem to get tired to giving him love interests. Plus if she's only in four episodes than it probably means she's going to die, which is the biggest clue she is Sayid's woman as his past three love interests have all been shot.
No no no that pun never gets tired! A new actor needs to get Lost every week until it returns.
i think that would be good?
Some one else LOST ?
