Is 'Lost' letting go of Evangeline Lilly?

If we're to believe last night's preview of next Wednesday's Lost, it would seem that the long awaited reunion of Sawyer and Kate (also know as "Skate" on these here internets) will soon be upon us. And so, the bitter debate regarding whom Ms. Austen loves more -- him or Jack -- will burn especially bright in the coming week. Will she live happily ever after with the quippy Southern con artist or the stressed out doc? I don't know ... Rumor has it, Kate might not live "ever after" at all.

Solid sources tell me exclusively that Evangeline Lilly is auditioning for pilots ... pilots that are intended to launch this fall. And Ms. Lily's people are apparently saying she will be available. Say wha--??

Yeah, I can't make sense of it either. The notion that Lost producers would kill off Kate -- or have her disappear in any capacity -- before the series' final season seems preposterous. Still, no story development on this show would completely surprise me, as everything is clearly possible in the land of Lost. And the fact is, Lilly seems to be looking for work.

Now, for all those Island-obsessed, please know this is not a spoiler... just a fellow Lost fan trying to compute what she's seen and heard.

Well there is a rumor out there that "someone "Major-ish" would die before tthe end of this season

that "someone "Major-ish" would die before tthe end of thjis season - I hardly think Kate fits into that category.

Maybe Miles or Faraday - maybe Lapidis, Cesar or Allana

Please - anything like this is considered a spoiler. Even if the rumor ends up being untrue - try to use the spoiler tag and definitely do not put spoilers into thread titles.

Nope...wrong

In case you haven't heard, Zap2It's Korbi is reporting that Lost star Evangeline Lilly has auditioned for fall pilots and that her reps have told TV producers she would be available for a show. And if Lilly were on another show that shot in the fall that would obviously mean a Kate-less season six of Lost.

Unimaginable, right?

Well, we checked, and according to Lilly's publicist, the story is "absolutely false." To sum up: Evangeline Lilly is not auditioning for pilots. Evangeline Lilly is not available for pilots. Evangeline Lilly is not leaving Lost. (Hallelujah!)

A relief to be sure...Would you even be able to watch Lost if they cut out Kate and her related romantic storylines?

I honestly dont think I'd mind if Kate was killed off. Kate has always seemed selfish and annoying to me. If she died, then Jack and Sawyer would start fighting over Juliet. Lol. I doubt they would kill her off though.

This is 100% from E online and it deals with the end of the season so spoiler warrning...but a printed spoiler so it just gives you what will happen but doesn't give specifics like WHO Enjoy

So what's your guess?... I am guessing Juliet or Sayid. I know Sayid is getting an episode this season where we will see his past and I believe his family, this never seems to be a good sign...I feel like his story is coming to an end for some reason.

[iamjacob]

I guess we know that it is Juliet that dies now. I still don't know if Sayid is going to die or not. He seemed pretty screwed at the end of the season.

I can't see Sayid surviving that long into season 6. He's kinda doomed.
