Actor Harold Perrineau is revealing why his character slowly disappeared from “Lost.”
Harold Perrineau at the 5th American Black Film Festival Honors on March 5, 2023 in West Hollywood, CA.Lindelof, Cuse and ABC did not immediately respond to TODAY.com's request for comment.
He remembered sharing his concerns with a producer. “‘I don’t have to be the first, I don’t have to have the most episodes — but I’d like to be in the mix. But it seems like this is now a story about Jack and Kate and Sawyer,’” he said at the time. He said he addressed the storyline with Lindelof and Cuse in a phone call. Perrineau pointed out the differences in screen time and the shift from the creatives initially being eager to cast him, too.
Perrineau was not the only one who shared in “Burn It Down” that they were abruptly let go. Writer and producer Monica Owusu-Breen, who joined the writer’s room for Season Three, likened the working conditions to a “hazing” situation while speaking with Ryan. Owusu-Breen and her writing partner at the time, Alison Schapker, were later fired. “I was so happy to be fired,” Owusu-Breen shared.
