The best part of Heroes is going to Lost. David H. Lawrence XVII, most recently famous for the recurring role of puppetmaster Eric Doyle in season three of Heroes confirmed only moments ago that he will be appearing in the final season of Lost. "I'm gonna be on #LOST, muthafucka," Lawrence happily tweeted, before quickly sending fellow Lost/Heroes alumnus Greg Grunberg a similar message.
"One episode to start, maybe more. Headed to Hawaii Monday, on hold for three weeks," Lawrence clarified. At this point, nothing is known about Lawrence's Lost role, other than the fact that it is played by a truly fantastic and diverse actor. It's likely that Lawrence will be appearing in episode 6.03 as either Melky or Russell.
In my personal opinion, this is absolutely wonderful news. Lawrence's Doyle was hands-down the best part of Heroes' third season, and left me wanting more of the character. Does this recent bit of casting news mean that we'll see less of Doyle on Heroes? Hopefully not, but if it does, it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.
Congratulate Lawrence on his newly landed role by following him on Twitter (@dhlawrencexvii). As more news breaks, we'll let you know.
