New cast member to join Lost

Entertainment Weekly reports that Zuleikha Robinson will play the pivotal role of Ilana on the fifth season of ABC’s “Lost.”

Robinson has recently been seen in the short lived “New Amsterdam” series. Before that she appeared as Gaia on HBO’s “Rome”. I knew she looked familiar!

EW says Robinson’s deal calls for her to start off as a recurring player with an option to become a series regular in season 6.

Lost comes back online in January of 09!
