The season four promotional poster for ABC’s hit television show LOST has hit the internet and it reveals a few secrets about upcoming episodes. Okay, it’s nothing you wouldn’t know if you’ve been paying attention in the off-season. But if you’re been keeping spoiler-free, you might want to avoid the rest of this post.
This off-season saw the return of an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) for LOST and a series of mini-episodes that filled in some of the blanks from previous seasons. Now it seems the ARG has continued in the poster. Here are some of the secrets revealed in the poster
- The poster features only twelve members of the current regular cast on the island and only those on the island. None of the new "Not Penny’s Boat" people.
- If you look there is a skyline of a city reflecting on the water. It looks like Downtown LA to me. This is an indication that some of them make
it off the island back to LA as we saw in the season finale last year. - Finally, you can see the number 6 in the water,
referring to the "Oceanic 6" group (those who make it off the
island). Of course, it’s also a 9 if you look at it the other way… so that could mean something.
If you see other hints present in the poster, drop them in the comments. LOST returns to ABC at 9pm on January 31st. There’s a 1 hour summary show to catch you up on your favorite LOSTies the hour before.
The light in the top left corner makes me think they are rescued by a helicopter. Could be a search light
The light looks like it is shining on 6 people. The ones rescued?
I’m trying to tell who’s depicted in the poster (which doesn’t seem to be very well done – look at the lines around the actors, they don’t blend in very well against the background)
L to R:
? (Is that Charlie?? How?? It’s certainly not Ben)
Sayid
Kate (Post-island hair, apparently)
Claire (? I think this is her, but her hair seems longer and styled. A Post-island look like Kate?)
Hurley
Jack
Locke
Sawyer
Sun
Jin
Desmond
? (Penny? Juliet? Libby? It’s a blond with long hair, that none of these women have. Who is she?)
I think very much the “spotlight” is shining on the “Oceanic 6”, though the number in the water should be interpreted as a 9 – otherwise the producers of the poster have screwed up.
Ok, never mind kinda. I got a higher-res version at

And the person on the far left is indeed Ben, and the person on the far right is indeed Juliet.
