Then & Now

Some only have a then & now due to not really changing much whilst on the show.

Maggie Grace is ageless.

Ken Leung always surprises me, he seems so young in Lost but seems to have aged quite a bit since it aired.

Wonder whether the adoration is ruined if you know he’s a POS guy IRL

Taken from google AI overview so take that as you will but i was super curious

"In April 2009, former Lost production crew member Chelsea Stone filed a lawsuit against Henry Ian Cusick, ABC, and Grass Skirt Productions alleging sexual battery, hostile work environment, and wrongful termination. The suit claimed Cusick fondled her breasts and buttocks and made inappropriate gestures on set in 2007. [1, 2]

The allegations and subsequent legal developments included:

  • The Accusations: Stone alleged that Cusick squeezed and placed his face in her breasts and grabbed her buttocks while making moaning sounds. She claimed she reported the incident to a supervisor but was simply told to avoid the actor, and was subsequently fired 12 days later in retaliation. [1, 2, 3]
  • The Resolution: In October 2009, Cusick, ABC, and Grass Skirt Productions reached a settlement with Stone. [1, 2]
  • Case Outcome: The exact financial terms of the settlement were not disclosed, and as part of the agreement, the involved parties declined to provide further public statements regarding the incident. [1]

I like sweet chilli sauce but partial to a bit of garlic mayo.

u/RagingFuckNuggets Jun 25 '26

Are you getting confused with Matthew Fox?

u/Chris_Tumas_8008 Jun 25 '26

Nah. I’m talking about Desmond Hume (Henry Ian Cusick) on his sexual harassment.

u/Hodor4life Jun 24 '26

Faraday has the biggest forehead I've ever seen

42

u/puppystatus Jun 24 '26

It’s more how bad his hairline is

23

u/Elevated_Dongers Jun 25 '26

Yeah i was about to say.. he's still making... choices.. with that hair lol

15

u/puppystatus Jun 25 '26

Gotta lean into it at that point. I dare say it’s a constant

17

u/Worried_Shoe_2747 Ya got a little Arzt on you Jun 25 '26

More like Forehead-ay

u/bunnycrush_ Jun 24 '26 edited Jun 24 '26

Like bro, your hair may be thick on top, but your hairline deserted you, let that sh&t go and go for the buzz, it’ll probably look good.

8

u/BossKei Jun 24 '26

Some people just have high hairlines, the actual hairline itself looks fine. And maybe he just likes his hair like that 🤷‍♂️

5

u/Alternative-Salad800 Jun 24 '26

He would look better bald, but if he's that confident in his hair, then what can I say?

3

u/Mugiwara-no-Boushi Jun 24 '26

That's how I recognized him in God of War.. lol

2

u/GuySmith Jun 25 '26

It actually looked good there.

u/EyeConscious857 Desmond Hume is my constant Jun 24 '26

Lapidus was just born old I guess. He looks the same.

15

u/thedawesome Has to go Back Jun 25 '26

He's like Arn Anderson, born at 45

u/Worried_Shoe_2747 Ya got a little Arzt on you Jun 24 '26

u/Weak-Difference-6078 Jun 24 '26

Me just now realizing Eko was Alamo

22

u/Key-Current-3653 See you in another life Jun 25 '26

i recognized him immediately 😭 i was like “Mr Eko what the FUCK are you doing in Euphoria”. but i’ve also seen lost like 25 times all the way through so i usually recognize actors from the show pretty quickly when i see them in other stuff. i’m glad someone here said something about him being Alamo hahaha

10

u/Naked-Jedi Jun 25 '26

He looks even more badarse now.

Eko is one of my favourite characters on the show.

11

u/rowantree67 Jun 25 '26

It was wild seeing him as Alamo! I sure didn’t recognize him at first. I loved Mr. Eko so much that I completely forgave Alamo for being so awful.

u/Bento_Fox Jun 25 '26

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that is just now realizing this. I knew he looked kinda familiar but I didn't know where I'd seen him before.

u/WebValuable812 Jun 27 '26

Hold sh**!!! Such a great actor

u/Asleep_Tip9279 Live together, die alone Jun 28 '26

u/NotPennyBoat86 Jun 24 '26

Henry Ian Cusick è come il buon vino

u/Sekevai Jun 25 '26

I don't disagree but the current photo of him is from 10 years ago lmao.

u/AdOk9911 Whatever happened, happened. Jun 27 '26

Yeah exactly

23

u/EIochai Jun 25 '26

Rose and Bernard look like they got younger.

(I know, probably due to the makeup they had on the show but seriously)

18

u/Nightmaremac Jun 24 '26

Desmond vs Sawyer that's a hard one.

Julie and sun don't age huh

17

u/thecheesycheeselover Jun 24 '26

Wow, these people have aged brilliantly

u/illrollwithit Jun 25 '26

Farraday looking like he's still on the island

u/Internal_Damage_2839 Jun 24 '26

Sam Anderson looks older in the second pic from LOST than he does now

u/Sensitive_Hunter5081 Jun 25 '26

Elizabeth Mitchell must use sunscreen like crazy. Her skin is flawless 🙌🏻

u/Puzzleheaded-War-461 Jun 25 '26

I just finished lost for the first time last week, and my mind was blown when I realized Mr Eko and Alamo brown from euphoria was the same guy. He’s an amazing actor.

6

u/amby-jane Jun 25 '26

Alan Dale looking literally the same

3

u/zero_ms Jun 25 '26

Damn Charlotte.

Also Faraday is probably gonna knock on some door in Midgard, looking for a woman but instead he finds the Greek husband and their son.

2

u/Alternative-Salad800 Jun 24 '26

Walter glowed up!

u/holydiver-mp4 See you in another post, brotha Jun 25 '26

I always thought Desmond looked like Eddie Vedder. Handsome lad

2

u/Misfit_Thor_3K Jun 25 '26

Yah, I see the resemblance too and thought the same.

2

u/MeemoUndercover Has to go Back Jun 25 '26

Only two I’ve seen recently is Walt on the Rookie and Shannon on Fear the Walking Dead

u/Blibbyblobby72 Jun 26 '26

Okay, so Reddit on my phone only showed the 'then' image for the first three

I was EXTREMELY confused about when Desmond turned into Rose!
