LOST's Terry O'Quinn on John Locke

The LA Times has published a great interview with John Locke himself, actor Terry O’Quinn. O’Quinn is once again garnering lots of press and praise, thanks to his fearless acting in last week’s “The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham.” Regarding the “new Locke” that’s just been resurrected, he says:

It’s interesting that I find post-death Locke up to this point much more relaxed and confident. I guess dying does that to you. I don’t think he’s too worried anymore. I think he might believe that he has the answers he’s been looking for… It wouldn’t surprise me if somehow Ben talked his way out of [murdering Locke]. At the moment, what we’ve shot to this point, I think Locke has a pretty strong upper hand.

Producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse add their $.02 on the importance of Locke to the overall story. Cuse says, “How far he goes next year, what his role is, what the final destination of that character is, we just don’t want to say because we feel it will spoil the journey of the show next season.”
