Without a doubt, Lost creator J.J. Abrams has the Midas touch when it comes to making stars out of his actors and actresses. The man behind such popular television shows like Felicity, Alias and Lost has helped catapult many of his talents to even greater stardom.
Keri Russell became the breakthrough girl-next-door with flaming red long tresses on Felicity. Jennifer Garner turned into an instant sensation as Sydney Bristow on Alias. Party of Five"s Matthew Fox got a new lease on life via Lost, while his fellow castaways on the series, Evangeline Lilly, Josh Holloway and Naveen Andrews, became familiar faces to millions of televiewers. With Abrams" new vehicle, Fringe, Joshua Jackson stands to become the next big thing anew from the prolific showrunner.
Of course, Jackson is no stranger to stardom. Much like Matthew Fox of Lost, Jackson has already enjoyed considerable fame in the past, both on film and in television. Prior to landing one of the leads in Abrams new sci-fi pilot Fringe, Jackson became quite the heartthrob as Pacey on Dawson "s Creek and as Charlie Conway in the Mighty Ducks motion picture franchise.
Aside from Fringe, Jackson is also in a multi-episode story arc on the medical drama, Grey"s Anatomy. Now that the three-month long writers" strike is over, Jackson will most likely be back in front of the camera to shoot his remaining installments for Grey"s. He is scheduled to begin filming for Abrams" Fringe pilot this summer.
Meanwhile, prior to the conclusion of the scribes" walkout, Lost seemed likely to film six more episodes for the current fourth season. Thus far, only eight installments were completed before the strike. This would mean a total of 14 episodes for the season, with the planned additional six installments probably ready in time to air in June.
