Lost's Jacob and Ben together in the same show again? It's happening! The announcement was made at the Person of Interest panel at New York Comic Con today that Mark Pellegrino will be guest starring in the series, which stars fellow Lost star Michael Emerson. This news comes with a episode image featuring Pellegrino and PoI's Jim Caviezel. Check it out ahead.
The Person of Interest panel at NYCC featured series cast members Jim Caviezel, Michael Emerson, Taraji P. Henson, Kevin Chapman and guest star Amy Acker. Creator/executive producer Jonathan Nolan was also there, and he was the one to make the announcement that Pellegrino was set to guest star in an upcoming episode of the series, playing an edgy and charming head of a popular publishing empire.
He looks annoyed.
Since playing the island-protector Jacob in Lost, Pellegrino has gone on to play roles in a number of other popular TV series, including The Closer, Syfy's Being Human and the role of Lucifer in the CW's Supernatural. He also recently appeared in NBC's new drama Revolution, which not only linked him to another Kripke drama after Supernatural, but also reunited him with Lost creator J.J. Abrams, who executive produces Revolution. It's likely that Lost fans will be pleased to see Pellegrino and Emerson back on screen together, and it should be fun to see whether or not their characters get along, if and when their paths cross.
The airdate for Pellegrino's episode was not announced, but Person of Interest airs Thursdays at 9:00 p.m. ET on CBS.
