Hottie Matthew Fox is planning a comeback
Matthew Fox is returning to television after eleven years. The Lost and Party of Five star is joining Joanne Froggatt in a new show for Peacock called Last Light. Based on Alex Scarrow’s best-selling novel, Last Light is an action-packed limited series directed by Jack Ryan director Dennie Gordon.
Those behind the series are clearly excited about the limited series heading to Peacock. “Last Light is the perfect combination of an action-packed limited series with a compelling family drama at its heart,” said Lisa Katz, president scripted content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “Led by fan-favorites Matthew Fox and Joanne Froggatt, this sweeping international saga spans several continents that provide a stunning global backdrop, yet is grounded in a relatable and topical story. We can’t wait to share this with Peacock audiences.”
Those behind MGM are equally as happy with the show and working with Peacock to bring it to life. “Just over a year ago, after recognizing the immense growth potential in the international market, we launched MGM International TV Productions with the goal of telling global stories that not only entertain, but also shed light on issues that are important to today’s audiences worldwide.” said Mark Burnett, Chairman of Worldwide Television at MGM.
Patrick Massett and John Zinman of Friday Night Lights and The Blacklist will serve as showrunners and executive producers. Last Light is coming to Peacock, but the limited series doesn't have a release date yet, but it's exciting knowing the wait for Fox's return to television is coming soon. Check out the synopsis of Last Light below.

I know he's an asshole but he's so easy on the eyes and I try not to care too much about personal lives. I welcome him, Josh Hartnett and other middle-aged hotties from the 90s making comebacks.

So funny you posted this because I was thinking about how I haven’t seen him in anything in a long time after watching “Emperor” last night with him and Tommy Lee Jones

That's an odd pairing.
A tall, handsome Fox and a minuscule female mouse.

You want to know what's important to audiences worldwide, Mark? Crooked politicians being held to account for their crimes.
Release the tapes, Mark. We all know you have them, and they would bring the Trump era to a close. So until you put what you have out, you can take your limited series and show it where the sun don't shine, even if it has Hottie McHotterson as it's lead.

If I was him, I would keep that low profile and only do press interviews about the project and not discuss my personal life.
Also if I was him, I would masturbate in the mirror at least twice a day.

I've had a crush on him since Party of Five. I agree that he should've gotten more attention for LOST because he's excellent in it, but he played the least showy character on the series.
I welcome his return.

R24 What do looks have to do with being a good person? Nobody said Matthew Fox was a saint. Johnny Depp is not a good person either and he's a self-harming junkie. Almost all junkies are selfish and abusive. The allegations of Fox beating women had never been proven and if so he clearly stopped as nothing new came out. Fox still working and looking good shows he has discipline. Depp could never carry two long running dramas in the vein of Party of Five or Lost.

R26 exactly. Looks have nothing to do with being a good person, but DLers think they do. Excuses for this idiot like “nothing was proven”, yet JD is an “abusive jerk”. Nothing has been proven for JD either. Just his lesbian ex making claims. That is hardy evidence.

Rumored to be hung and he doesn't disagree:
PLAYBOY: What about another Internet rumor that says you’ve been known to instigate skinny-dipping parties and that cast members have nicknamed you the Pendulum?
FOX: [Laughs] I haven’t done that in a while, either, but I have absolutely no trouble taking my clothes off—never have, from the time I was a kid growing up in Wyoming. It’s fun to do something others think is outrageous. It’s fun just to watch people’s reactions. You mentioned the Internet. I make it a strict policy never to look at anything on the Internet that pertains to me personally or to anything I’m working on.

Over the weekend, Monaghan — who played Charlie on the ABC adventure show — launched into an anti-Fox rant on Twitter after a fan named Becca requested he convince the actor to join the micro-blogging site. Monaghan’s blunt response: “he beats women. No thanks.”
Becca’s reply: “I KNOW IT WAS WRONG BUT WHAT?! WHAT ABOUT ALL THOSE GOOD TIMES YOU HAD TOGETHER?!”
Monaghan: “how do you know we ever did? you don’t know either of us.he beats women.not isolated incidents.often.not interested.”
Reps for Monaghan and Fox did not immediately respond to THR‘s requests for comment.
“It’s very difficult to sue someone for speaking the truth,” wrote Monaghan in a cryptic tweet on Monday night.

R32 That's still not evidence. Allegations are not facts. You can choose to believe he hits women or choose not to as that's your choice. Unless there is evidence which removes all doubt, I'm inclined to disbelief.

His post-Lost films have been kind of duds.
The one where he majorly ripped where Tyler Perry (Mary!) was playing a younger version of Morgan Freeman.
And the live action Speed Racer where he looked like a leather gimp at a BSDM party.

Noticed, he and Ben Affleck are kinda similar. Drunken hotties from Mayflower lineage with dysfunctional families. Matt Damon probably sabotaged Fox because he wanted the Hollywood monopoly on aging white pretty boys who do action and procedural roles.

Party of Five seems so forgotten. It's weird because this is the show that put Matthew Fox, Neve Campbell and Jennifer Love Hewitt on the map. Lacey Chabert does a shit ton of voice acting as well. I don't remember it being reran a lot like Gilmore Girls, 7th Heaven, 90210, Dawson's Creek, Buffy, etc. Sorta just faded away after it ended. I knew Fox mainly from Lost and came across Party of Five on some video-on-demand service and watched a few episodes, Scott Wolf was damned fine along with Fox.
The most nostalgia it got was that failed attempt at a remake that Freeform pushed with the dumb concept of these Mexican-American kids having their parents deported. May as well made it a different show, not a terrible concept but nothing at all like actually losing your parents to death.

Matthew Fox did a very touching portrayal of an autistic man in search of his father in the drama Behind the Mask also starring Donald Sutherland. It's based on a true story and like most movie adaptations, the actors were much better looking than the real life figures, both Matthew and Donald.

Never liked him. He's long been rumored to have been a difficult drunk and IIRC he was arrested about ten years ago for assaulting someone while drunk. He has the lifeless eyes of a serial killer.

r62, I agree with r61. There's something about Matthew Fox I find frightening. I wouldn't want to be alone in a room, in a forest, or on the road with him. Someone upthread compared him to Ryan Eggold, and I couldn't disagree more. Ryan seems like a lovely person, as well as being very good looking. I get that some might find Fox attractive, but for me, the attractiveness is overshadowed by his sinister aura.

People see what they want to see with celebrities and celebrities show what they want to show. Fox had some scandals but he's so private and doesn't expose himself a lot that I can't necessarily say he's this or that. He explained his side of that story and the case went nowhere. Also, that cast member who was bashing Fox had a lot of bones to pick with the show in general and he never proved his allegations. That's why I'm not the side of Fox being an abuser. Like many actors, I can see him being diva and difficult but that's necessarily a bad thing especially in an industry that wants pushovers and yes-men. Like I said, there's not enough out there for me to say much about him as a person. Especially compared to others like Will Smith, Matt Damon, Kanye and Johnny Depp.
