The cast of “Lost” is about to get a fatter paycheck. People.com picked up a Hollywood Reporter dispatch that says that for signing on to an extra year on the ABC ratings hit, Touchstone Television offered all the original members of the ensemble — Matthew Fox, Evangeline Lilly, Josh Holloway, Naveen Andrews, Dominic Monaghan, Terry O’Quinn, Jorge Garcia, Daniel Dae Kim, Yunjin Kim and Harold Perrineau — nearly $80,000 each per episode next season.
Currently, the actors are said to be earning between $20,000 and $40,000 per show. Fox, however, reportedly earned a bonus of at least $250,000 for playing the pivotal role of Jack. Reps for Touchstone and the actors declined comment.
