Evi talks final farewell; plus, Skate’s reunion


Lost fans were in an uproar when reports alleged that Evangeline Lilly was leaving the show and auditioning for pilots that could launch this fall.

Her reps were quick to put out that fire, saying the story was absolutely false.

So TVGuide.ca decided to ask the actress herself, and hopefully, fans will be pleased by the answer.

“Why on Earth would I want to leave the best female role on television, in my humble opinion?” says Lilly with a laugh. “I’m happy at the show. The rumour started because the world was bored and they need a little drama, so they make things up, and that’s it; it’s very simple.”

Phew, right? The preview for the next episode of Lost has alluded to the long-awaited reunion of Kate and Sawyer (Josh Holloway), and Lilly dished on how she hoped it would go down, and what did indeed happen.

“For Evangeline, it was great fun because it’s been a long time since I worked with Josh, and it was great to have that reunion,” she reveals. “I was also nervous that they would write something that would undermine Kate’s character.

“The notion that she might come back to the island and start things up with Sawyer again after three years of being involved with Jack, I was very nervous that that would happen and warrant having to justify that. Because I’m the one who has to make that believable, and if you don’t believe it, then it’s hard to make other people believe it. But they didn’t do that.”

Lilly adds, “It’s a very intense thing for both of them; I don’t think Kate realized he was even alive still. The last time she saw him, he had jumped out of a helicopter, was swimming in an ocean, to an island that, minutes later, disappeared.

“So for all intents and purposes, Kate thinks he’s dead. She really is holding out a little measure of hope that he’s alive, but the skeptic and the realist within her is saying he’s dead. So to see him again, more than being intense and romantic, it’s just intense and shocking.”

Maybe I shouldn't be, but I was a little disappointed in this interview. Evie makes it sound as if a romantic reunion with Sawyer would not have been believable. Also what's up with this "being with Jack for three years" stuff?
He avoided both Kate and Aaron for the majority of time they were off the island!

shea welcome to be here :) and
it's not romantic the original way it has to be i got it;
remember she said the promise wasn't romantic but keeping secret and doing something for a man you loved and you lose IS romantic gesture
the scene can't be romantic and i didn't see it like that why ? 'cause as evi said it's intense and very shocking
it's romantic in a way 'cause you can say you'll see all emotion in their eyes, gestures will be awkward (if there is) it's kind of romantic but it's not exactly a romantic moment as in OOU
i do think evi was scared after kate screwed jackass she have had to do the same right now with sawyer, she said in kimmel interview (i'm gonna to post soon) she didn't get kate here and asked darlton. she was with jack during "3 years" not mean together but more the fact only man was involved in her life and it was jack, don't mean it was romantic aspect here, she meant jack was here sometimes during those years not jack and kate were together during 3 years ;)

Thanks for the reply, Lyly! I've talked to you on Lost-forum also.
I go by SheaPaul there. There's something wrong with that site today. You always have a way of making me feel better about things. I should have never gone to Dark's site and read all the comments on the interview there. Alot of people were saying that this would be the end of Skate. But I have faith in what Evie told Tati and what Darlton have said about Kate "pining" for Sawyer. I guess maybe it will be awhile before we get to see it.

Shea: I didn't got the feeling Evi thinks the meeting won't be believable... I think she thanks the producers for writing it in a way that people and her would believe it...

What I like is Evi keeping her speech about Kate thinking Sawyer is dead... Maybe that's the only way she can explain the senseless things that happened off-island :D

And I agree you, Lyly, the romantic issue will be hidden between the awkwardness of the situation...

Btw... I miss LF, feel like alone ^^
