Lost EPs Apologize to Evangeline Lilly for Semi-Nude Scene Experience

On a recent episode of The Lost Boys Podcast, Evangeline Lilly said that she “had a bad experience on set with being basically cornered into doing a scene partially naked, and I felt had no choice in the matter.” Upon filming it, she was “mortified,” “trembling” and “crying my eyes out” — and just prior to having to then shoot “a very formidable, very strong scene.”

Lost bosses J.J. Abrams, Damon Lindelof, Jack Bender and Carlton Cuse issued the following apology via Entertainment Tonight…

“Our response to Evie’s comments in the media was to immediately reach out to her to profoundly apologize for the experience she detailed while working on Lost,. We have not yet connected with her, but remain deeply and sincerely sorry. No person should ever feel unsafe at work. Period.”
