Jack's new Lost love

ABC is the finder of Lost loves.

The network announced the addition of another Lost cast member, this time a possible love interest for Jack Shephard, played by Matthew Fox. Elizabeth Mitchell will join the hit ABC series when it returns this October. In seasons one and two, Jack has had romantic tension with fellow castaway Kate, played by Evangeline Lilly.

Mitchell will play a character named Juliet, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Mitchell has appeared in the series ER and will next be seen in the finale to the Tim Allen Santa Clause trilogy, Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause.

Earlier this week, ABC added Brazilian actor Rodrigo Santoro to the cast. Santoro, who has been dubbed "the Brazilian Tom Cruise," will help the show get steamier, as executive producer Carlton Cuse has promised will happen.

Last season, the show added cast members Michelle Rodriguez, Cynthia Watros, and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. The new players were a group of castaways from another part of the same plane that crashed on a separate part of the island.

This season, the new cast members could be part of The Others, a group who heretofore has menaced the castaways.

    i think the new girl will be a love interest from jack's past-- wasn't he in ?Thailand? wherever he got that tattoo. bet she's a bad girl, too, & Jack probably went to jail or something because of her. maybe that's part of why he likes kate. he like the bad gurl.

    I say bring on Jack and this so called Julliet.
    Kate uses Jack to get to sawyer, then she uses sawyer to get to jack.
    When jack goes off, she'll realise all she has is sawyer...and she'll regret everything.
    Jack can hook up with this new chic purley in spite of Kate.
    ...Jate shall finally rule when she gets killed off next season...

    I think Kate will get so jealous, she'll as k Sawyer for a gun, then Sawyer will ask for a kiss, then Kate will try to kill the new girl. She'll succeed then Sawyer will get jealous and he'll join the Others to kidnap Jack and torture him. That's extremely unlikely, but it would be fun.

    Kate, Jack and Sawyer remind me of Buffy, Angel and Spike. :)

    Kate doesn't deserve Jack.

  • kathleen212

    Alll I'm saying is Jack and this new chic better hook up, 'cause Kate really needs a reality check-she cant have everything.

  • MemnochZERO

    You guys realize the whole reasoning behind Sawyer wanting in Kate's pants is JUST to drive a wedge between her and Jack so HE can have Jack all to himself, right?
    Just checkin'. ;)
    Maybe they're bringing in this new female as a supporting/recurring character, like Henry and Desmond and Bernard and Rose. That would make sense.
    They lost Michael, Libby and Anna, and have filled that with Henry Desmond and Rodrigo's character.. adding a forth is one too much... unless she's the Shannon replacement. Which logically doesn't exist, because she can never be replaced.

    Jack and Kate have something good going on, I don't want that messed up.

    I also hope that she'll realize how much she likes Jack, I dont like that Elizabeth mitchell girl.

    I really want Jack and Kate to be together. Putting this chick in the mix tells me she is either gonna die or Kate is gonna see that she really likes Jack.

  • pgsuperfan

    Jack should be with Kate

    Jul 29, 2006
  • smallville06

    Good finally Sawyer and Kate can be together for a while, that would be more fun than Jack and Kate

    Jul 29, 2006
  • FreakChiq

    I don't like that!Jack should be with Kate.I hope that the possible love interest will stay possible, if you know what i mean :)

    Probably the romantic storylines don't interest me at all in this show, it's the stuff with the "Others".

    i like kate and sawyer better too. jack is too santimonious. he should be a monk.

    I don't think that she will be an other. 48 people initially survived the crash (not including the talies), of which we have met only 15 (incl. Dr. Artz). There are still a lot of survivors that we haven't met. I believe that she may fall into this category, or more probably she was one of the survivors from the tail section that was kidnapped by the Others.

    I think in the end Jack and Kate will get together. Something will happend bad with the new love intrest. She might die or she may end up being bad. You can tell that Kate and Jack love each other by the way they looked at each othere in the season 2 finale. Also Skate never is going to happend. Two reasons 1)Sawyer slept with Ana Lucia. 2) She said Sawyer reminds her of her father.

    I believe the storyline need new charaters. You can't just mention the others, then be held captive in their camp, with the possiblity that you're gonna be there for quite good time, and not get to know them. I think it is predestined.
    Besides, Romeo aka Jack was searching for his Juliet. XD
    I just hope that Rodrigo won't be in Skate way, now that Jack is almost out.

    Yes no more Jack and Kate... I was getting sick of those two, I really prefer Kate and Sawyer

    I'm brazilian and Rodrigo is very good acting.
    But I don't think he'll last to the next season!

    Another character brought in to "spice things up". Right, who's idea was this again?

    There's too many characters left without storylines at the moment (almost soap-like). Charlie and Claire were casualities of being taken to the side. Surely adding new characters are going to hurt the one's already pushed to support.

    I'm not a huge fan of Lost, but even I see when the execs are trying desperately to change the complex formula in order to re-sell the new season.

    IF SHE PLAYS an other, and she is a jack love interest, that is HUGE sloiler that the others arnt bad.
    Cause jack aint gonna be turned!!!

    I dont like the fact that they have new characters I mean with desmond and Henry coming in good, I bet this new character is going to be an "Other" but if they were gonna do that why not make Alex a Main castmember they allready have plenty of sub members

    I always thought some First Class people made it out, actually.

    good news for all Skaters :)

    I don't mind the new characters as long as they possess some kind of value to the show. I'd rather the writers kill off the useless characters (charlie, claire, and sun just to name a few)who are a part of the main cast if the new ones are of more importance.Personally, I think the show can go on with just Locke, Jack, Kate, Sawyer, and Hurley as the main characters.

    Is anyone else thinking theat there may have been survivors form the front of the plane. In the pilot Jack Kate and Charlie went in to the front and not all the seats were filled with bodies. What if some of the fronties live and had left the plane before Jack, Kate and Charlie got there, and they happend to leave in the opposite direction. Heck they could be in a differnt hatch on the island by now.

    Jul 28, 2006
  • MemnochZERO

    Yeah, I personally don't see a reason to add more characters, they killed off Libby and Ana Lucia (and Shannon) Michael and Walt are gone, then they fill that void with Henry Gale and Desmond.. and whoever Rodrigo Santoro is playing.. they don't need another body as a regular. Hell, they didn't need Rodrigo, either. Plus this is just gonna underdevelop characters they already have (Sun and Claire were pointless last season).
    LOST is turning into a real sausagefest for season 3. They've killed off three chicks, and replaced them with dudes. Hopefully this'll be a great season.
    I personally don't see this new character sticking around very long, maybe even getting killed midseason.

  • tvdvdaddict

    Why do they need to keep adding new characters to the show? Too many people makes the show harder to follow.

    She'll die in the next season, just like Michelle Rodriguez's character. Mark my words.
