Former Lost actress Maggie Grace (pictured) is set to make a return to the hit ABC drama later this season, according to reports. The show is currently in its sixth and final season and, despite the fact Grace's character Shannon was killed off in the second series, she will reportedly be returning later in the series.

Lost's executive producer Carlton Cuse confirmed the Malice In Wonderland star’s return to the show. Cuse said: "We're really excited about having her back on the show, and we have a good story for her."
According to reports, other Lost castaways being brought back for the show’s final season include Michael (Harold Perrineau), Libby (Cynthia Watros) and Charlotte (Rebecca Mader).

More for the show...Josh Holloway has said he 'cannot believe' that Lost is finally ending after six years. Holloway, 40, has played the role of Sawyer since the beginning of the hit series and it is currently in its sixth and final season.
Talking about the end, he said: "I cannot believe it, even though we've had quite a while to digest it. It's bittersweet. "When every episode is done, it's like: 'Shoot, one more in the can.'
"It's been an incredible ride for me as an actor. They've really taken Sawyer on a rollercoaster, and that's been a pleasure to explore."

We don't have a clue yet what she's got," says filmmaker Johnathan Demme -- referring to his "Rachel Getting Married" star Anne Hathaway.  "I have to laugh because people have the perception that Anne is really good at certain kinds of things, and then every time she does something new, she redefines herself. Did you see her sing and dance on the Oscar show?" he asks.

Of course, Hathaway was a nominee this year for Demme's movie -- which gets its DVD release Tuesday (3/10) -- for playing the difficult, fresh-from-rehab sister of the title character played by Rosemarie DeWitt. He says of Hathaway, "She's my new daughter -- don't tell her father. … If she chooses her parts well, she's going to blow our minds again and again and will create a body of work up there with the likes of Katherine Hepburn, Denzel Washington -- any of the greats. Now she's playing the White Queen in Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland," and I can't wait to see what she does with that."
In fact, he says, it was the prospect of making the movie with Hathaway that convinced him to do it. The "Silence of the Lambs" Oscar-winning director, whose credits also include "Philadelphia" and "the Manchurian Candidate," has been sticking to documentaries for a while, because that's the way he likes it. He's soon to debut his "Neil Young Trunk Show" concert movie at the SXSW Film Festival -- and is currently filming a documentary about the late Bob Marley for which he's been traveling to Jamaica. "This is a healthy place for me to be. I don't function that well in kind of formalized situations. I've done all that," Demme says. "I like doing things where you don't have to worry about opening up in 1,000 theaters. You don't have to return a kajillion dollars. What I'm doing is a blast without the stress."
HERE 'N' THERE: Country star Big Kenny Alphin is biting off an awfully big acting challenge for himself with his "Free Like Me" independent feature that's set to roll next month. He's playing an alcoholic, depressed rock star who can't stand to let anyone touch him, and who goes off to the Caribbean to drink himself into oblivion. Casting is underway for subsidiary characters, including the housekeeper he encounters who starts him on a turnaround.
LeVar Burton is getting ready to do a staged reading of a piece called "The Caterer" at the Whitefire Theater in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley. It's described as the story of a man who "sells you your appropriate death." Shivers! Cynthia Watros is also aboard.
And you have to wonder about a casting breakdown that went out for a new celebrity-pranking reality show. Forces involved were supposedly looking for stars interested in pulling pranks on friends and fans -- with a nice little fee to go on top of it. And we do mean little: $100. Maybe the notice itself is a prank.
