‘Lost’ Creator Says Show May Be Headed To Theaters
It seems like the wait for new episodes of “Lost” has been long and torturous for many of its fans. But according to creator J.J. Abrams, there may be new life for the show after it ends its ABC run in May of 2010.
“The one thing that makes you think maybe there could be [a movie] is that ABC agreed to end the series after six years,” says Abrams. “Which is a gift, because you know you won’t have years seven and eight where you’re thinking, ‘They should’ve ended at year six,’ and you know how to pace yourself so that you know how to end the series.”
While Abrams seemed in the MTV News interview to be, at best, lukewarm at the idea of helming a “Lost” movie, the director of “Cloverfield” said there are some good reasons to do it.
“The only reason why I think maybe there would be a movie is that by doing that — which is hopefully the right way to go and that’s it — you do have that sense of, well, it didn’t go on any longer and, therefore, is there something else that you could do? So there’s a chance, but my gut is it would never happen.”
