Josh Holloway Cruises to 'Mission: Impossible 4': What Are Other 'Lost' Alums Up To?

Posted 9/29/10 4:51 pm EST by in Casting Call, News


Josh Holloway"Lost" fans hoping for a Sawyer-Miles buddy-cop spinoff may have to wait awhile because things just got a whole lot more "Impossible" for Josh Holloway.

Holloway, who played badboy-with-a-heart-of-gold Sawyer for six season on "Lost," is in final negotiations to team up with Tom Cruise for "Mission: Impossible 4." In his first post-Island film gig, Holloway will join newbie recruits Paula Patton and Jeremy Renner, as well as returning vets Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames, in enlisting in the Impossible Mission Force headed up by Cruise's Ethan Hunt.

With J.J. Abrams producing and "Incredibles" director Brad Bird at the helm, we couldn't be more enthusiastic about the film's prospects. And Holloway's proven proficiency with both firearms and a sharp one-liner make us confident he'll earn his keep in the cast. In short, we can't wait to see him on the big screen when "M:I-4" hits theaters on December 16, 2011, and we're glad he's found some success in his "Lost" afterlife.

Speaking of which, now that it's been four months since "Lost"'s audience-dividing tearjerker of a finale, what's the rest of the "Lost" cast up to? Hit the jump to find out! Read More...

Jin is in league with Smocke (Terry O'Quinn) against his will, while Sun is at the beach camp with Jack (Matthew Fox) and his allies. All that these two want is to leave the Island together, a task that would seem easier said than done — but both Smocke and Jack state that a reunion isn't out of the question.
