'It was all a dream!' Evangeline Lilly teases Lost fans over ending as finale nears

By Daily Mail Reporter

Glamour: Evangeline Lilly was a world away from her Lost character Kate as she arrived for the David Letterman Show in a J Crew mini-dress


With just 11 days to go before Lost fans can finally make sense of the show's mystery, Evangeline Lilly has been hinting at what viewers can expect.

Appearing the Late Show With David Letterman last night, the Canadian actress teased the show's ending on May 23 could turn out to reveal the whole series had been 'a dream'.

Lilly, who has played fugitive Kate Austen since the show started in 2004, was giving little away about the show's finale.

The 30-year-old actress, who showed off her toned figure in a chainmail J Crew mini-dress, was careful not to give away too much information about the ending.

She said: 'I dont think the writers even know the entire back story.


End of an era: Lilly as fugitive Kate Austen in Lost


'I know as much as my character does by the end of the show, but I don't know what the other characters knew by the end of the show because I never read the script.

'The finale - without giving too much away - holds true to the Lost tradition... it represents the show nicely.'

Clearly not a viewer of Lost, Letterman theorises the only sensible way of ending the programme's confusing storylines would be make it a dream.

Lilly replied: 'You're hoping for the dream out? You're the least imaginative person in North America.'

Lilly claimed there were millions of 'intelligent' theories on the internet about Lost, although admitted she hadn't read them herself.

When pushed for the ending, Lilly teased: 'Jack is running through the forest and then he falls asleep and when he wakes up, he says. "I just had the weirdest dream."'

After completing the show this year, Lilly is leaving Hawaii, where she has lived for the past six years.

Describing herself as a 'unemployed', the L'Oreal model said she plans to turn her hand to writing.

Lilly revealed she is currently writing her first novel about 'multi-national, highly successful female pimp', but hasn't sent it to any publishers yet.

Lost's series finale will be screened in the U.S. on May 23, followed on British TV on May 28.

The finale will be extended to two and a half hours so it gives producers enough time to wrap up the intricate plotlines.

Viewers will no doubt hoping to find the answers to their many questions, including what is the significance of the six numbers - 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42? What is the purpose and nature of the island? Who is the Man In Black? And will the survivors ever find their way home?
