Watching Lost

Is Karl actually gone? Blake Bashoff, who plays his character, thinks he is pretty much good as gone, as E! chats up with him after the latest episode aired.

Blake mentions that he will be in a Broadway show, Early Spring, for the next sixth months, so that means his calendar is booked.

They know the show that I’m doing, they’re big fans of it, and they said that’s an amazing opportunity, so they went back to the writers’ room and brainstormed. And I think that this was actually an idea that they threw out there early on.

He says that he remembers shooting that final scene of his with a lot of snipers in jungle fatigue around. Although we hardly saw a clearer view of them on television.

And he also feels we will haven’t seen the end of Danielle…

The good news is you got the Han Solo line before you died: “I’ve got a bad feeling about this.” I think that’s a little gift from the producers. What did they tell you when they told you about the scene?

I wish I knew more than what we all saw last night, but it’s sort of all shrouded in secrecy. Watching the episode last night, I did notice that [something that we shot wasn’t shown]. On the day we filmed it, the people who were shooting at us, there was actually a great shot of the snipers emerging through the jungle in these incredible, elaborate, jungle camouflage uniforms. And I don’t know if you got a sense of that last night or not—I think you just saw movement in the trees.

In terms of what they told me, they didn’t tell me much except it’s going to be exciting, and we’ll hope to have you back in some capacity, and the good news is when you do come back, you serve a cool purpose like Mr. Friendly last night.

Obviously, there’s going to be a scene that follows the scene we ended on last night. Do you think that Danielle is killed dead, and will we see any more of Karl’s body, or are we just going to leave him there in the dirt?
That’s a good question. If you do see Karl’s body, I don’t think it will actually be me. But they’ve done it in the past where they have these great body doubles who can certainly play corpses masterfully. Rousseau? I don’t know. She’s pretty blown up, but…I have a sense you haven’t seen the last of Rousseau.
