What The Cast Of Lost Is Doing Today

Harold Perrineau had plenty of work on his way to portraying Michael Dawson on “Lost,” having played significant roles in several television shows. Before “Lost,” he’s probably best known for his portrayal of Augustus Hill on “Oz,” though that’s only a single part in a long list of credits garnered by the actor. Perrineau also spent a great deal of time working in films, having brought Mercutio to life in “Romeo + Juliet” in 1996 and Link in the second and third “Matrix” films.

As Michael, Perrineau appeared in the first two seasons of “Lost,” playing a prominent role on the island. He and his son departed the series at the end of the second season, but he didn’t remain gone for too long. Perrineau returned to the island in the fourth season before departing again, only to come back for a guest appearance in the final season of “Lost.” In Maureen Ryan’s book “Burn It Down: Power, Complicity, and a Call for Change in Hollywood,” Perrineau said he was fired from “Lost,” explaining his departure was the result of “asking for equal depth” for his character (via Today).

After his time on “Lost,” and during its production, Perrineau kept working in film and TV. He appeared in several movies, including “28 Weeks Later,” “Zero Dark Thirty,” and “I’m Not Here.” On the small screen, Perrineau jumped from one series to another, keeping himself busy with leading roles in “Claws,” “Star,” “The Rookie,” “From,” and “The Best Man: The Final Chapters.”
