    When the producers/directors of this show were discussing the actors that would play in them how does this work?
    DO they send out a memo to all the big agents describing the actors they want,
    if this is the case lets do some for fun
    eg. when they were looking for
    Charlie
    what would they say?

    Well.. i know that we originally wanted a much older actor for Charlie. Think they wanted Charlie originally to be like an middle-aged rockstar.

    But liked Dom so much that he got the job.

    Jorge Garcia (Hurley) was the first one cast also, i believe!

    It has truly made stars of a lot of the cast really... considering the fantastic Evangeline Lilly (Kate) and Josh Holloway (Sawyer) has been in very little before 'Lost'.

    Yeah Evangeline Lilly deserves it. But Sawyer was a model before this wasnt he? So its not like he needed a big break in acting.

    They spotted him in a small part in Curb Your Enthusiasm, didn't they?

    They even made a small reference to it in his flashback episode.

    oh and isn't Evangeline Lilly being considered for a part in the next X-men movie as Kitty Pryde/Shadowcat?
