US: Desmond [** Mild S3 Spoilers Within **]

SCOTS actor Henry Ian Cusick is set to solve the mysteries of Lost and become a main character in the smash-hit TV show.

American viewers have already seen the cliff-hanger finale of the second series that leaves Cusick's character, Desmond, facing death.

The actor, from Newton Mearns, near Glasgow, was only due to make a few appearances in the tropical island drama.

But after receiving "keep the sexy Scot" petitions from viewers, producers decided to write in a miraculous escape in the episode to be shown on Channel 4 in September.

Cusick, who has signed a megabucks contract, said: "I've been asked to be a regular for at least a year.

"I have to be in Hawaii at the beginning of August to start filming and my family are moving out to join me later.


"It's a great opportunity for me and I'm grabbing it with both hands."

Cusick, who is half-Peruvian, plays Desmond, a castaway discovered by the other survivors inside the mysterious hatch.

His intense performance won him a surprise Emmy nomination for outstanding guest actor.

In series three, due on British TV next year, Desmond's girlfriend Penelope will be seen desperately trying to find him after he disappeared on a round-the-world yacht trip.

And her quest could be the key to rescuing all the stranded survivors, who are thought by the outside world to have died in a plane crash.

Just because desmonds bird is looking for him doesn`t mean he is still alive!!! Who knows, maybe she finally finds his whereabouts only to find he died in the hatch with eko and locke. But eko and Locke ( and sawyer) are my fav characters so i`m hoping thats not the case.

And don`t forget about the flashbacks, Libby has been killed off but i`m sure we'll see more of her in Season 3 through the flashbacks.

if that were the case then why does the article state that he's going to be a main caracter who survived the explosion?

Does anyone else see anything wrong with these three lines? The S2 finale airs on C4 in September, but there's no escape for Desmond in that. Any escape will not be seen until S3 which start in the US in October. But this is The Mail after all.

I guess they will all get out somehow as killing off both Locke and Eko would be a bit much, and since Desmond will be returning in a reportedly major role, I'd imagine it's more than flash backs.

Maia the Unholy

don't blame me, i took it from this site. it's the one that goes on about sayid and locke's rescue mission. so, if he is dead, he wont be that helpful, unless he's as dead as he is cripple.

tartarus

then tell me who is to blame?

i wanna see this story! dammit man this is not good enough...

I'm not sure if it's the same article but the second one in the list mentions some stuff about Locke, I haven't read it because it might have spoilers.
