Cuse and Lindelof Talk Season 6’s Direction
Talking to TVGuide.com, executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse hinted at the direction Lost’s final season will take:
- Cuse: “People are going to take sides [between Jacob and the Man in Black], but that doesn’t mean they’re not going to switch sides later on. It’s a little bit like baseball pre-season. You’re on a team, but there’s a lot of trading going on.”
- Cuse: “By the end of the premiere, you’ll have a sense of what we’re doing. We’re still doing the same thing we’ve always done on the show, which is island storytelling and off-island storytelling. It just now starts to take on a different form in the final season.”
- Lindelof: “Every mystery that is relevant to the characters on 815, if they don’t care about it, then it’s probably not going to be answered. So if it’s relevant to them or they’re asking a question, then it’s something that we’re going to deal with. But that’s the story that we’re telling.”
- Cuse: “We always felt like Lost was at its best when it was really surprising. We did things that were unexpected. We do have a few surprises up our sleeves for this season, which we think are really exciting.”
