Is "Lost" Headed for the Big Screen?
“Lost” has mesmerized (some of) us for four seasons now (doesn’t it seem like longer?), and if you’re wondering whether a feature film might come out of the show, the answer is “maybe.”
MTV News recently ran an interview with “Lost” co-creator and executive producer J.J. Abrams, who’s doubtful that a feature film will be made. Part of that is because there’s now a firm end-point for the series: May 2010.
More after the jump…
“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.”
Still, now that the end’s in sight, Abrams says he’s not entirely closed to the idea of a “Lost” movie. “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.”

Right now today, my feeling is they should end it with the TV series. Would you like to see the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 on the big screen? Or would it somehow cheapen what the series has accomplished on TV?
