'Lost' Stars To Be Turned Into Action Figures
29 May 2006 (WENN)
The stars of hit TV drama Lost are to be turned into action figures by toymaking giants McFarlane Toys. In a licensing agreement with Disney-ABC Television Group's Touchstone Television, McFarlane Toys will produce a series of action figures, which will be in stores at the end of the year. The first batch of six characters will feature Jack (Matthew Fox), Kate (Evangeline Lilly), Hurley (Jorge Garcia), Locke (Terry O'Quinn), Charlie (Dominic Monaghan) and Shannon (Maggie Grace). Each action figure will come complete with a detailed base and photographic backdrop, capturing an episode-specific moment in the character's story. McFarlane Toys boss Todd McFarlane recently spent time with the cast on location in Hawaii, where the desert island drama is filmed, to develop artistic likenesses of the stars. He says, "All of the key cast members were kind enough to allow me to scan their facial likenesses, so we can make the figures as realistic as possible. We now have the data. In the end, we hope to be able to re-create all of the major cast members. As the years go by, fans of the show will be able to collect their own society of Lost characters."

'Lost' Siblings Start Dating
24 April 2006 (WENN)
Actors Maggie Grace and Ian Somerhalder, who play spoiled step-siblings Boone and Shannon on hit TV series Lost, are dating off-screen. The celebrity couple are regularly spotted out together in Los Angeles, but have tried to keep their budding relationship under wraps. A source confirmed the romance to American publication Us Weekly adding, "They stay out of the limelight, but they spend a lot of time hanging out and working out together at Gold's Gym (in Venice Beach, California). They kiss and hold hands when they come and go from the gym. You can tell they're a couple." The pair were romantically involved in a flashback sequence on Lost in its first season.

'Lost' Draws Killer Ratings
10 November 2005 (StudioBriefing)
Demonstrating once again that there's nothing like killing off a regular character to produce solid ratings during a "sweeps" week, the producers of ABC's Lost shot down Shannon, played by Maggie Grace, on an episode that garnered a 13.1 rating and a 19 share (8.3/20 among adults 18-49). Executive producer Carlton Cuse told USA Today that Grace was "really awesome" after learning that her character was being written out of the show. "We had to negotiate her contract for this season, so she's known for a long time this was coming. But she was nothing but absolutely professional and completely tight-lipped and completely a team player in terms of going to events, doing interviews and participating as a full member of the cast without giving any indication that she was dying." Despite Lost's strong showing, CBS's Criminal Minds also produced solid numbers during the same 9:00 p.m. hour, registering a 10.1/15.

Grace Horrified by Holloway Robbery
14 October 2005 (WENN)
Josh Holloway's Lost co-star Maggie Grace is horrified to learn of the actor getting robbed in his home, because she knows he only just completed work on the dream property. As the actor and his wife Yessica slept in their Hawaii home on Wednesday, a gun-toting burglar reportedly awoke them as he took cash, credit cards and a Mercedes-Benz, which was later found abandoned. And Grace, who learned of the incident during her current visit to New York City, knows just how much the home and vehicle mean to Holloway. She says, "I've been running around New York so I hadn't checked my voicemail in a while. I've since talked to quite a few people. Everybody's okay, thank God. They're really important people to me and it's really scary that they had to go through that. Even though they're okay, they just finished their house and Josh has worked really hard his whole life to buy his first house and a car as a gift for his wife. And now to kind of have that sense of safety sort of shattered."

MAGGIE GRACE BIOGRAPHY

Margaret Grace Denig (born September 21, 1983) in Columbus, Ohio is a American actress, who lives in Los Angeles.
Maggie Grace launched her acting career in 2002, starring in Murder in Greenwich and Shop Club. In 2003, Grace played the Goth-influenced, estranged daughter of Tom Selleck and Wendy Crewson in the drama 12 Mile Road. Grace’s big break though came when she landed the role of the self-centered Shannon Rutherford in the critically-acclaimed TV series Lost.

With bright blond hair, glowing skin and bikini-perfect proportions, Maggie Grace is just the girl many men would like to get lost on a desert island with, so it came as no surprise that she was cast into stardom as the spoiled, pouty castaway Shannon Rutherford on ABC’s hit drama “Lost” (2004- ) after just two years of acting professionally.
Born in Columbus, Ohio, on September 21, 1983, Grace started acting in her late teens, beginning in 2002. The Midwesterner quickly developed an enviable resume, appearing in two USA TV movies, as the real-life murder victim Martha Moxley at the center of a mystery involving a member of the Kennedy clan in “Murder in Greenwich” (USA 2002), and opposite Tom Selleck in “12 Mile Road USA” (2003). She played Hope Wilde in pilot of Fox’s “Septuplets” (2002) and made independent films “Shop Club” (2002) and “Creature Unknown” (2003).

Grace has also made appearances on a variety of hit shows. In 2003 alone, she had recurring appearances on Fox’s “Oliver Beene” and guest spots on ABC’s “Miracles,” CBS’ “CSI Miami,” on Rob Lowe’s short-lived vehicle, “The Lyon’s Den.” In 2004 Grace also appeared on episodes of the network dramas “Law and Order: Special Victim’s Unit,” “Like Family" and “Cold Case” before joining the ensemble of the breakout hit drama “Lost” teaming with Ian Sommerhalder as one of a pair of step-siblings who shared a troubling personal history even before becoming stranded on the mysterious island. On the feature film side, she also made a foray into horror with a leading role in the murky 2005 remake of the John Carpenter classic "The Fog." As her stock in Hollywood rose, audiences were surprised when her character was abruptly killed off shortly into "Lost's" second season

Biography

Early lifeGrace was born in Worthington, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus, the eldest of three children. She took to acting at an early age, performing in several local theatre productions, among them Jewish Community Center's Gallery Players' 2000 production of The Crucible.[1] The director of that play, John S. Kuhn, said of Grace "Even at that young age she brought a lot to her work."[1]

At 16, Grace left Ohio with her mother, Valinn, for Los Angeles. Things were tough for a while and the young actress frequently found herself struggling to pay her rent.[2] In 2001 she landed the titular role in the Sony Pictures web-serial Rachel's Room, which took the form of a teenager's video journal. In all, she appeared in 56 short videos dialoguing teen angst and her conflict with her mother and school teachers.

Career
Over the following years Maggie, under her stage name Maggie Grace, had guest appearances on several television shows, including CSI: Miami, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Oliver Beene, and portrayed Martha Moxley in the television movie Murder In Greenwich. In 2003, she played the Goth-influenced, estranged daughter of Tom Selleck and Wendy Crewson in the drama 12 Mile Road.

It was in 2004 that Grace landed her big break when she won the role of the affluent, lazy and self-centered Shannon Rutherford on J. J. Abrams' television pilot Lost. When Lost was picked up for a full season by ABC Grace relocated to Oahu, Hawaii where the show is filmed.

During the hiatus between the first and second seasons of Lost, Grace starred in the remake of the John Carpenter horror film, The Fog, alongside Tom Welling and Selma Blair. The film was nearly universally-panned[3] upon its release that fall. She returned to Oahu for Lost's second season, where she filmed the first six episodes, before moving back to Los Angeles.

Maggie was widely rumored to have won the role of Shadowcat in X-Men: The Last Stand [4], but the role eventually went to Ellen Page. Maggie later revealed that she had never been contacted about the role and was surprised to read she was up for the part in question.[5]

After a break in 2006, Grace returned to both small and big screens in 2007. She returned to Oahu and Lost to film a guest spot in a season three episode, and she co-starred in two movies: Suburban Girl, alongside Sarah Michelle Gellar and Alec Baldwin, and The Jane Austen Book Club.
