“Lost” executive producers, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, received a special letter from a celeb fan this week, Star Wars creator George Lucas. Lucas gives the duo props for their work with the ABC show. Take a gander at the letter’s contents here:
“Congratulations on pulling off an amazing show. Don’t tell anyone … but when ‘Star Wars’ first came out, I didn’t know where it was going either. The trick is to pretend you’ve planned the whole thing out in advance. Throw in some father issues and references to other stories — let’s call them homages — and you’ve got a series.
In six seasons, you’ve managed to span both time and space, and I don’t think I’m alone in saying that I never saw what was around the corner. Now that it’s all coming to an end, it’s impressive to see how much was planned out in advance and how neatly you’ve wrapped up everything. You’ve created something really special. I’m sad that the series is ending, but I look forward to seeing what you two are going to do next.”
What was Lindelof’s response to the letter? Jokingly, he said:
“I just want to apologize to Mr. George Lucas for everything I said about the prequels …”
