LOST was one of the most popular TV shows of the noughties, lasting for six series.
The ABC show told the story of stranded survivors of a plane crash who were stuck on a mysterious island.
In the long-running show, the cast were forced to work together in order to survive as they realise they are not alone.
Actress Maggie Grace, 40, played the role of Shannon Rutherford in the first two series of the show before her character was axed.
She has now opened up on her departure from Lost as the TV star admitted that she was left devastated.
Maggie explained: “I thought they were gonna take her a little further. It’s still the worst heartbreak of my career. I was devastated!”
The actress also admitted how she felt the character could have developed on-screen after her premature axing from the show.
“[She] was sort of a caricature of white privilege before that was a phrase, you know? And maybe I was just too good at my assigned job of being incredibly annoying,” she explained.
“I thought maybe she would do something surprising, or have another colour [to her personality]. Maybe she’d, at the last moment, redeem herself and be incredibly self-sacrificial in some way.”
She added: “I guess there were flashes of it, but not in the way I hoped in terms of an arc.
“That’s a selfish actor’s point of view. They definitely had bigger fish to fry.”
In Lost, the character was the stepsister of fellow plane crash survivor Boone Carlyle (Ian Somerhalder).
Together both relatives survived the accident which involved Oceanic Flight 815 and were stranded on the island.
During her two series on the show, her character was known for the romantic relationship with fellow castaway Sayid Jarrah (Naveen Andrews).
She was killed by Ana Lucia Cortez (Michelle Rodriguez) who accidentally shot her in a case of mistaken identity.
Since then the actress has been busy at work on a variety of both television and film projects.
She starred in three series of Fear the Walking Dead on AMC as well as other shows such as The Althea Tapes and Masters of Sex.
Film projects include Faster alongside Dwayne Johnson, Aftermath with Arnold Schwarzenegger and both parts of Breaking Dawn in The Twilight Saga.
