No Kristin Bell for Lost
First no Peter Stormare, and now this! It seems that Kristin Bell has declined the invitation to appear on Lost.
The reasons are somewhat varied at this point. TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello originally reported that Bell was offered the part of Charlotte, a character thought to be part of the ‘Not Penny’s Boat’ people. The move to Lost was considered by everyone who pondered it to be the best possible opportunity for the actress, whose series was recently canceled.
Coincidently, Lost and Veronica Mars once occupied the same time slot, and many members of Lost’s creative staff seemed to commiserate with the show’s ailing ratings, at one point even jokingly offering to lend Mars a million Lost viewers to help keep it on the air.
Leaving both the concepts of poetic justice and career advancement behind, rumors are the Bell may be trading the opportunity to appear on Lost for a shot at Broadway as the lead in a musical production of Legally Blond.
The other possibility floated by Ausiello is that Bell turned down the part because she did not want to move to Hawaii. While that could be difficult to fathom for some people, it may speak to Bells devotion to personal ties in the mainland.
