Is Michelle Rodriguez 'Lost'?
Internet rumors are swirling that the two stars of "Lost" who’ve had DUIs over in Hawaii are not long for that world. By that world, I mean whatever place the people of “Lost” are inhabiting.
Michelle Rodriguez, who plays the feisty Ana Lucia, is said to be leaving the show at the end of the season. It’s hard to believe, since characters that "die" are presumably being released from purgatory into heaven (or something like that). Ana Lucia, I think, would be going to hell for killing Shannon.
But who knows? One thing’s for certain, Rodriguez — who got her start so brilliantly in “Girlfight” — has not had an easy time of it on the set of “Lost”…
And still there’s another rumor that Cynthia Watros, who plays Libby, is leaving for a CBS sitcom with Tom Cavanagh. What’s really strange about this is that Cavanagh just bombed in the god-awful “Love Monkey.” Shouldn’t there be an appropriate period of mourning — like a couple of seasons? Anyway, Watros also had a Hawaiian DUI this year.
What no one says about “Lost,” and what seems more pressing, is that its nominal “star” Matthew Fox is off to shoot a big feature film this spring during the show’s hiatus. “We Are... Marshall” is directed by videomaker McG, who lensed “Charlie’s Angels.”
Fox co-stars with Matthew McConaughey, Anthony Mackie, Ian McShane and David Straitharn. He follows “We Are… Marshall” with “Vantage Point,” at which point, if he gets good buzz off the shoots, FOX will start agitating to leave “Lost” himself.
And that’s when Lost becomes a five-season show, with the fifth season being all about looking for Fox’s character. This happened to another Fox a long time ago — Fox Mulder, from "The X Files," when David Duchovny left for his big film career.
