Matthew Fox: Knowing how Lost ends is a power trip

Lost star Matthew Fox says that knowing more than fans do about how the story will end is ‘a power trip’.

The actor is the only cast member who knows how the final season of the hit drama – which starts on Sky1 on February 5 – ends.

But when pushed for details he would only reveal that the last scene is ‘really beautiful and powerful’.

He told The Guardian, 'knowing stuff that the audience want to know... it's a quite a power trip, to be completely honest with you'.

Matthew added: “But the truth is that nobody really wants to know. If you're reading a really good book - I don't know too many people who want to turn to the final page and find out how it ends."

Some details of the final series are being kept secret, even from most of the cast, the actor explained.

Matthew said: "There are certain scenes that are never published in scripts.

"Every year, near the end, there are scenes that are omitted and the only people who ever know what's involved in that scene are the actors and a skeleton crew.”

He joked: "We've had a leak - they're probably sitting in Guantanamo Bay right now."

Lost season six starts on Friday February 5 at 9pm on Sky1.
