Aronofsky Gets Lost

Seems that one of my favorite directors out there, Darren Aronofsky is going to be directing an episode of one of my favorite television shows. The director of "Pi" and "Requiem for a Dream" will be sitting in the director's chair for an episode of Lost that will air during May sweeps. This is great news, but I have to wait 'til May to see this episode? Argh. Why do you play hard to get with me Lost. That friggin show is such a tease. Here's the excerpt from Entertainment Weekly's blog.
Who knew cult director Darren Aronofsky was a fan of the boob tube? The Requiem for a Dream helmer has just signed on to direct an episode of ABC’s Lost, which will likely air at the beginning of May sweeps. “It was one of those fantastic calls out of the blue,” says Lost exec producer Carlton Cuse. “His agents let us know he liked the show, and we jumped at the opportunity. Apparently, he had been watching Lost while up in Montreal shooting The Fountain and got hooked.” Speaking of which, won’t this interfere with completing Fountain, the director’s six years-in-the-making sci-fi epic starring fiancĂ©e Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman? “I think he will be done,” speculates Cuse. “We scheduled it so that [the episode] is coming on the heels of finishing The Fountain. And we will try to put together a story that will be well-suited for Darren’s talents and visual imagination.”
I'm anxiously waiting for a camera to be strapped to Kate's chest so I can see her run through the jungle . . . but just angle that shot a little bit south.
