Shannon's Return

Maggie Grace, who played Shannon on LOST, will return to the ABC drama later this season. Executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse confirmed that Grace will reprise her role, although they did not specify how many episodes she would appear in.

"We are really excited about having her back on the show and we have a good story for her," says Cuse.

An original cast member, Grace left the show in season 2 when her character was killed off. It will be interesting to see why Shannon was missing from the plane scene in the season premiere. While all the other castaways were seen on the plane landing in LAX, Shannon's stepbrother Boone mentioned that she stayed in Australia. Hopefully her return will shed some light on the alternate reality!
