| From executive producers J.J. Abrams (creator of "Alias"),
Damon Lindelof ("Crossing Jordan") and Bryan Burk ("Alias")
comes an action-packed adventure that will bring out the very best
and the very worst in the people who are lost.
Out of the blackness, the first thing Jack (Matthew Fox, "Party
of Five") senses is pain. Then burning sun. A Bamboo forest.
Smoke. Screams. With a rush comes the horrible awareness that the
plane he was on tore apart in mid-air and crashed on a Pacific island.
From there it's a blur, as his doctor's instinct kicks in: people
need his help.
Stripped of everything, the 48 survivors scavenge what they can
from the plane for their survival. Some panic. Some pin their hopes
on rescue. A few find inner strength they never knew they had --
like Kate (Evangeline Lilly), who, with no medical training, suddenly
finds herself suturing the doctor's wounds. Hurley (Jorge Garcia)
- a man with a warm sense of humor despite the desperate situation
- does his best to keep his cool as he helps those around him to
survive. Charlie (Dominic Monaghan, "The Lord of the Rings"
trilogy) is a faded rock star who harbors a painful secret. Sayid
(Naveen Andrews, "The English Patient") is a Middle Eastern
man who must wrestle with the racial profiling directed at him by
some of his fellow survivors. Jin (Daniel Dae Kim, "Spider-Man
2," "24") and Sun (Yunjin Kim) are a Korean couple
whose traditions, values and language are foreign and thus causes
much to get lost in the translation. Sawyer (Josh Holloway) has
an air of danger surrounding him, and his intense sense of mistrust
for everyone around him could prove to be fatal to his fellow castaways.
Michael (Harold Perrineau, "Oz") has just gained custody
of his nine-year-old son, Walt (Malcolm David Kelley, "Antwone
Fisher," "You Got Served"), after the death of his
ex-wife - they are a father and son who don't even know each other.
Locke (Terry O'Quinn, "Alias," "Primal Fear")
is a mysterious man who keeps to himself, and who harbors a deeper
connection to the island than any of the others. Self-centered Shannon
(Maggie Grace, "Oliver Beene") - who actually gives herself
a pedicure amid the chaos - and her estranged controlling brother,
Boone (Ian Somerhalder, "Smallville") - constantly bicker
and must learn to get along if they are to survive. And young Claire
(Emilie de Ravin, "Roswell") is eight months pregnant
and ill-prepared for the hardships of motherhood - especially on
a deserted island.
The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must work together
against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if they want to stay
alive. But the island holds many secrets, including the intense
howls of the mysterious creatures stalking the jungle, which fill
them all with fear. Fortunately, thanks to the calm leadership of
quick-thinking Jack and level-headed Kate, they have hope. But even
heroes have secrets, as the survivors will come to learn.
