The American actor Matthew Fox, who played the role of Jack in “Lost”, returns to the vision of the creator of the series and defends the end of the show.
His speaking on Lost are rare, so we are delighted to hear Matthew Fox expressing himself on the series that revealed it, and in particular on the always thorny question of its end. The actor embodied Jack Shephard, the main character of the series, first very Cartesian and then discovering himself permeable to faith.
“I just saw some episodes”
ABC
The actor has always sought since 2010 since 2010 to move away from the image of the series so that his career is not confined to Lost, to the point that he recognized at the microphone of The Independent :: “I have never really watched the entire series, I just saw a few episodes. At this moment of my life, I did not particularly like to see myself on the screen. I had the impression of corrupting my work. Today, I no longer feel things as intensely as at the time.”
Above all, the one whose character wore a number of tattoos – to the point of having an episode dedicated to their creation – has a fairly dissonant look about the end of Lost, considered by a part of the public and some of his actors as disappointing.
A controversial end, but not for Matthew Fox
ABC
“It was clearly the intention of Damon Lindelof. He wanted [la fin] It is something that can be interpreted by each person who has built any relationship with the series. Those who are frustrated by the fact that they do not obtain an answer on the presence of the polar bear miss a little what matters [vraiment]. “
“(…) Believe that six years of mysteries and questions were going to be resolved in the last two hours of the series, or even in the last half of the last season … This is not what Damon wanted to do.”
Lost's inheritance
Even today, Lost continues to fuel the discussions between seriesphiles; Its end divides but one thing is certain, it is still talking, and that is what maintains it today according to Fox, which concludes:
“I think it's a series that will resist time. Given the place where it takes place and its philosophical content, I have the impression that it does not get rid of it quickly. I am very grateful to have lived this experience. It was great, and I am happy that people continue to discover it.”
