Here is Matthew in his audition.Crazy, I think that I have heard that he auditioned for Sawyer, but I didnt remember so it was weird seeing that. I dont think that he would have made a good Sawyer.

He is a great actor.. But the Sawyer part just doesn't suit him..
I can't believe they let everyone try out the Sawyer part.. I mean even Hurley..
But this is yet another good video, can't get this on the original disc set..

I am not saying this just because I am a "Sawyer" fan, I am saying this cause I think only Josh can play Sawyer. I also think that Matthew is the only Jack. I cant see anyone else playing the role. I am happy with who got stuck playing the roles that they got.

Think about it this way though, you'd probably be happy with who was playing all the characters even if they were all portrayed by different actors.  I think it would be strange to see Matthew Fox as Sawyer at this point, but in the beginning, we wouldn't have known what to expect, and it would have just seemed fine if Matthew Fox was Sawyer then.

i watched the bonus footage that came with season one as well, so i got to see the whole casting process and here damon and jj's view on it all. i think they had everyone read for sawyer because they hadn't developed all the characters yet, or at least that's what i got from watching it.

That's kind of what I think too, although I haven't watched that interview.  I don't think that Josh Holloway is a butt in real life, but I think that it was him that shaped the character from the beginning.

He sure plays a good one though. I watched a preview for a movie that he was in a few days ago from 2001 called Cold Heart and he plays a bad bad man. Looks interesting. Another interesting fact: Jeff Fahey stars in this movie to and he will be in Lost season 4. Here is a link to that video, hit the watch trailer button. http://www.blockbuster.com/catalog/movieDetails/202639
