So we know why he left Lost..


But why is he now starring in movies like GI Joe, as opposed to going back to the show?

Could they not write him back in as a, "ghost" character or something? It seems kind of odd that he left for his family and now he's back doing other stuff so soon. They should have just skipped his character and left him in the background so-to speak until he was ready to come back.

Can't you really answer to this by yourself? It's pretty simple - his acting hiatus was planned. Obviously it was not going to be forever, so obviously he'd also get back at some point. The creators of Lost couldn't just wait for the actor's decision to write their material. He was always a 2nd tier charachter in Lost anyway. And I think the end his charachter got was quite a treat for the little importance he added to the show.

DUI's on the island is the reason he left, michelle rodriguez and daniel kim. If you get a DUI, you will be killed off.

Adewale did not get a DUI.

Oh, I'm sorry champ, I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.

reply

He did not get a DUI but he was arrested for disobeying a police officer and operating a motor vehicle without a license.

But again, this was not the reason he was fired.

Dan Kim is still on actually.

I admire him for taking the time that he needed with his family. He played a great character that probably could have stayed until the finale, but it was ultimately just a job.
