Breaking: Is Charlie returning to 'Lost'?!

Categories: Lost, News

Charlie-returns-to-lost_l That’s the vibe I got after watching a new ABC promo (embedded below) that just made its way onto the Internets. The cheeky clip, part of the network’s fall ad campaign, features new and returning ABC stars Courteney Cox-Arquette, Ed O’Neill, Patrick Dempsey, and… Dominic Monaghan?!

An ABC spokesperson declined to comment, but a network insider cautions against reading too much into the spot. “There’s obviously a lot of ABC talent in the promo,” the source points out. “It doesn’t necessarily mean that Dominic is returning to Lost.”

Monaghan’s rep, meanwhile, had this response when asked if his client was being resurrected on Lost. “You never know. Stay tuned.”

Watch the clip yourself after the jump and let the speculation continue in the comments section!

    If true, this definitely means they succeeded in altering the timeline. Maybe Boone and Shannon will return too? Eko? Let’s keep Ana-Lucia dead though.

  • John

    I CALLED IT! Check the blog johndellaporta.blogspot.com, dated right after the finale aired. Totally nailed it. Booyah.

  • Joseph

    Oh, shoot. Come on! That is VERY telling! He’s back!

  • blinkers

    OMFG I hope so! I couldn’t follow Lost this season but I’d definitly start watching again if Charlie AND Claire were back!

  • Meg

    YAY! Charlie!!!

  • The Dude

    A few weeks ago I would have just assumed he was gonna come back as a ghost or psycho-vision of Hurley’s…but with the news breaking this week that Claire was returning NOT as a guest star bu instead as a series regular, it may turn out that he’s back for the whole season. Which would lead me to believe that Juliet reset the Island timeline after all…
    (this show blows my mind)

  • Brad Tabke

    What did Charlie say at the end? I can’t understand it…

  • wendyk

    Oh yay!!! I’ve been hopeful for this happening and maybe it actually will!! I miss Charlie so much :-(

  • brandon

    totally predicted this!

  • brandon

    totally predicted this!

  • Nat

    I hope it’s true. BRING BACK BOONE!!

  • LisaMama

    It would make sense for all of the original cast to be back (Charlie, Walt, Michael, Shannon, Boone, etc) if Jughead somehow did a “re-boot” on flight 815. Hooray!

  • Sarah

    Charlie says, “Actually, I was.” Pretty telling that he uses the word “was” instead of “am”!! Yay for Charlie coming back!

  • dave

    @ brad tabke: I think Charlie said “actually, I was” in response to Dempsey saying “you’re so dead.”
    So if the timeline is actually reset, they would have to bring back Boone, Shannon, and everyone else back who died too.

  • John

    Brad Tabke – He said “actually I was”

  • Tatiana Torres

    Oh its totally for Lost cause he says I WAS ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

  • ackeramniv

    i really doubt they’re going to erase 5 years of the show… sorry guys. at best i see them having 815 land at LAX in a fake-out opening scene with some of the old cast and then have it be a jack dream where he wakes up in the jungle like he did in the pilot/316. as for claire, darlton said long ago that they wanted us to know ‘what happened to her’ when she disappeared in something nice back home…. if they reset the past/future/whatever, then that never happens, and neither does the rest of the show.

  • Jonathan

    I wonder how they would compensate for how much older Malcolm David Kelley looks now if they bring him back on a regular basis.

  • Robbie

    Last fall, they also used Jin in a campaign before we “officially” knew he was still alive. Methinks he must be coming back.

  • CharlieFan

    Does anyone know what does Dominic Monaghan says after Patrick Dempsey says, “You’re so dead.”?

  • Jonathan

    Oh yeah, I know Ian Somerhalder is going to be starring on Vampire Diaries this fall, I don’t see how they would be able to get him back.

  • Lee

    You, All, Everybody!

  • Potch

    I thought he said, “Actually I WASN’T”. Is it just his accent making me think that?

  • Dr. Ledyard

    Where the F is Doc Jensen?????

  • Ajit

    he says “Actually, I was”

  • Solamente Dave

    @Charlie Fan: Look back about 5 posts behind yours.

  • Kaley

    I hope Dominic Monaghan comes back to Lost! Charlie and Claire deserve a second chance, they were barely a couple on the show before he got killed and she disappeared.

  • Potch

    Wait wait wait…. is this for ABCs FALL season? Lost doesn’t start in the fall. Maybe Dominic is going to be on something else.

  • Kaley

    Haha by the way, Courteney Cox is totally channeling “Monica” in this clip. I miss Friends…

  • Desmond22

    @Jonathan – it is conceivable that IF Darlton really did know how they were going to end the show when they started, they could have filmed the series finale back when they srated season 1, and have it in the can?! Everone, including Walt would look like they didn’t age.
