Fact: Dexter alum Mark Pellegrino (he played Rita’s abusive ex) has been cast on Lost in a pivotal role, multiple sources confirm to me exclusively.

Fact: He turns up in the season finale.
Unconfirmed scuttlebutt: One of those familiar faces is *a****!

Daniel!?
What’s with this cornucopia of scoop this Friday? I love it but it’s almost too much to handle in one day.
Or Sawyer, Walter (Walt), Danny Pickett?
Sawyer?
He’s perfectly cast! Got to be Daniel. My first though was Sawyer.
Dang, I never should have clicked on this. Quiet the spoiler, Aussy.
could he be sawyer’s father? povotal role in sawyers life. would explain very little, but im not sure it will be THE Jacob, you know the one from the cabin.
Well, there goes my theory of Locke being Jacob!
Why the hell do you have this on the main page as the first thing people see when they log on? Are you kidding me?
I don’t know who this guy is, but I still feel like you ruined the whole Jacob mystique for me.
Thanks EW, thanks.
i have to agree – to have this right on the main page with no chance to avoid spoilers is very unfair to lost fans
Daniel!!
The only 2 that would make sense are Daniel and Sawyer. I’m thinking Daniel because he’s seemingly more knowledgeable about all the mysteries of the island.
james ^^
this tool Ausiello could care less about the fans. anyone else would post a spoiler alert.
Ausiello…who ever hired you should have a lobotomy. You could possibly be the worst want-to-be Lost enthusiast in the world. Posting spoilers–heavy spoilers–without warning is unprofessional. Leave the heavy lifting to Jeff Jensen and take a seat on the bench.

Well, I don’t know what all, but this show sure confuses the Hell out of me!!! I won’t even watch season 5 until I can buy the whole season on DVD and watch it all at once!! (The way I watched every other season)!!!
Randy Joe…
you people complaining are RIDICULOUS! all this confirms is that this actor will be in the season finale. thats it. all this stuff about jacob is just speculation, a guess, UNCONFIRMED. i am an AVID lost fan and this in no way spoiled anything for me. If you didn’t want to know anything about lost, WHY DID YOU CLICK ON THE STORY!? Ridiculous.
You reveal too much information on upcoming shows all the time.
I’ve been finding EW Online has been really pushing the limits with spoilers with out warning. I’m considering this to be the last straw – I’ll only be going to Lostpedia.com for info now – I won’t be coming back to this site again.
Hush up complainers!!
Keep the juicy news coming Ausiello…
I wonder if they are allowing all the spoilers these past two days because of the poor ratings last Wednesday? Maybe ABC et al are trying to drum up more hype for the show and drag those casual viewers back to LOST.
Ausiello is a hack. How about some in depth re-cap/discussion?
nate…you can suck it
To anyone complaining about spoilers, why are you reading a spoiler columnist’s column. That’s like jumping in the ocean and then complaining about getting wet. Good grief.
I don’t believe that it’s Jacob
People, calm down. This isn’t a huge spoiler. In fact, thanks for the info, Ausiello!
i am hugely confused as how this is a spoiler… its a casting announcement with a query on the part of aussiello… i agree with everyone else though… why the heck would you read anything in the ausiello files if you don’t want spoilers? that is why i read his stuff… its all spoilers and casting stuff. quit the complaining
Might be going a little off here, but it’s a theory (specially with the 70’s flashback thing being unconfirmed)…
… He might be older Aaron
Boone,
You call Ausellio a hack, but you are such a tool that you make your screen name based of a season one character…
Here is the deal, if you don’t like spoilers, don’t come to a place that has spoilers.
Keep it coming Ausellio, I know what I’m looking for when I come here and it is spoilers.
Shouldn’t we just assume that everything Ausiello posts is going to be spoilery? That’s his job, is it not? They pay him to seek out the spoilers, and he’s good at it. If you don’t like it, don’t read Ausiello. There’s a ton of other TV-related content to check out on ew.com besides Ausiello – go read that. Done.
Aaron is Jacob
