Lost star Matthew Fox reveals why he walked away from Hollywood for 7 years

Matthew Fox is reflecting on his 2015 decision to take a long hiatus from acting, following the conclusion of the survival drama Lost and a string of movie roles.

Fox, 59, starred as Jack Shephard throughout the entire six-season run of Lost, from 2004 to 2010. He later appeared in a handful of movies, including Emperor (2012), World War Z (2013) and Bone Tomahawk (2015), before stepping away on an extended hiatus. He made his long-awaited return in the 2022 miniseries Last Light and the 2023 miniseries C*A*U*G*H*T. He will next star in Taylor Sheridan’s new standalone series, The Madison.
