Josh Holloway is finally back on our screens in a leading role. (His last came in 2016 sci-fi drama Colony, with a brief season three arc in Yellowstone to whet fans’ palates in the interim.) Even better for Lost fans, we can kind of pretend this is a Sawyer origin story. He’s a getaway driver instead of a con-man in Duster, but he’s still doing a bunch of illegal stuff before the turn of the century. This Lost fan says close enough!
The real treat for Losties is that Duster reunites Holloway with Lost co-creator J.J. Abrams. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Abrams said that he and Duster co-creator LaToya Morgan wrote the show with Holloway in mind. “He’s someone I just love working with. And with age, I think he’s gotten even more comfortable with his wry swagger and toughness, and also vulnerability and being unsure of himself,” Abrams lauded. “It’s a tough balancing act. He’s a great-looking guy, but he’s genuinely funny and big hearted and he brings that to the character.”
