Abrams’ “Lost” almost had a completely different cast
Narrative
Survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island. Find out which stars missed out on one of the most popular TV shows of all time. Sawyer’s character was originally intended to be an older, dapper, suit-wearing urban con man from Buffalo, New York. However, when Josh Holloway forgot a line during his audition, then kicked a chair in frustration and swore loudly, the writers liked the edge he brought to Sawyer’s character and decided to write Sawyer as a darker, Southern drifter instead. and Sun are married and share the last name “Kwon,” which becomes a major plot point in the final season.

At first glance, “Lost” seems like an impossible concept: a group of people stranded on a mysterious island. How many plots can you POSSIBLY squeeze out of it before the idea is completely exhausted? Unlike many shows today, where the plot drives the characters, Lost is actually the opposite: the characters drive the plot. This isn’t “CSI” or “Law and Order,” where every week is a variation on the same theme. In Lost, you have a group of fascinating and tragically flawed characters who must learn to survive together while trying to hide their secrets.
Yes, mysterious things happen
It’s a method that leads to disaster. After living together for a long time, the characters will discover that it’s impossible to keep their past a secret. Yes, there’s a monster on the island. Yes, there’s often a sense of fear in the air. But to me, the external problems that the island itself presents are NOTHING compared to the INTERNAL problems that the characters must deal with, both with themselves and with each other.
And it’s fascinating to watch
That’s where the REAL drama lies.
