Actress Maggie Grace, who played Shannon Rutherford in ‘Lost‘, the drama following survivors of a plane crash on a mysterious island, admitted she was crushed by her character’s early demise in the series.
The show aired from 2004 to 2010, but Shannon, the annoying and spoiled girl, appeared only in the first two seasons, as she was abruptly killed early in the plot. In an interview with The Independent, Grace confessed it was truly frustrating.
“It’s still the biggest disappointment in my career. I was devastated!” she said about her character dying in episode six of the second season. Shannon Rutherford, portrayed by Grace, dies accidentally from a gunshot.
Grace hoped Shannon would have a stronger storyline or that her romance with Iraqi officer Sayid (played by Naveen Andrews) would continue longer, “I hoped she might do something surprising.”
Grace was 21 when ‘Lost‘ began airing; her brief appearance came early in her career before she went on to star in major TV and film hits like ‘The Walking Dead‘ and ‘Twilight‘.
