'Lost' stars Fox, Lilly 'to quit TV'

Lost stars Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly have both said that they are quitting television acting after the show wraps its current and final season.

At the Lost season premiere party in Honolulu, Fox revealed that he is done with TV and hopes to move on to film roles or something else entirely.

"I think this will be the last time you see me on TV," he said.

Fox, who plays Jack Shephard on the programme, added: "I'm either going to do the kind of things I want to do in the film world, or maybe I'll just do something else entirely."

Lilly (Kate Austen) hinted that she might quit acting altogether, opting for an off-screen role in film or doing philanthropic work in Rwanda.

"I'm not passionate about acting the way you probably should be to call yourself an actor," Lilly said.

The final season of Lost premieres Tuesday at 8pm on ABC.
