Surprisingly, Mr. Eko wants to go back to the island

Okay, so we know that Dominic Monaghan (Charlie), Maggie Grace (Shannon), and Ian Somerhalder (Boone) are all keen to return to Lost in its final season, and at least one of them has been in active talks with the show’s producers about that very possibility.

Now Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, the actor who famously played Mr. Eko — and then asked to be released from his contract long before his planned character arc was finished — says he wouldn’t mind going back to Lost. “To be able to give that rich character some completion would be nice,” he told TV Guide Magazine. Quite a change of heart.

But as TVG points out, the actor burned a lot of bridges with the show’s producers when he left it prematurely, forcing them to compensate by ending their long-term plans for his character. What do you think? Could a full-on reunion with Lost’s dearly departed be in the cards for Season 6? Or would Lost’s producers even consider bringing the actor back, after their difficult first experience?
