I could start Rodrigo Santoro's In the Limelight as I did for Kiele Sanchez's post and only change a few words: Since [his] first appearance on Lost as plane crash survivor [Paulo], fans of the show have not been embracing the [actor]. Part of it may be because [his] character, as well as [Kiele Sanchez's Nikki], sort of appeared out of nowhere (even though [Paulo] was supposedly in the background since season 1). Part of it may also be because the writing for [his] character has not been stellar. Part of it is surely also because fans do not know who [Rodrigo Santoro] is.

The Brazilian actor, nicknamed "The Brazilian Tom Cruise" by some media, has officially been in the acting business for almost 14 years now. This not-that-known-in-the-US-yet actor has been part of some 30 movies and television series, mostly in his home country.

Gee, you would think that there would be a finite amount of people on the island where Oceanic Flight 815 crash landed. Well, apparently not, as a new cast member will be added to the ever growing list of actors and actresses on ABC's Lost.

The newest to join is actress Elizabeth Mitchell. She will play a character named Juliet on the hit series. There's very little else known about the character (I'm surprised we were told her name); however, according to an article at Zap2it she may be a new love interest for Jack, played by Matthew Fox. Whether or not she'll be part of the crash survivors from the other side of the island still hasn't been revealed.

Mitchell, whose had previously worked on The Lyon's Den and ER, is the second cast member to be added to Lost in a week. ABC previously announced that Brazilian actor Rodrigo Santoro would become a regular next season as well.
