'Lost' executive producer Damon Lindelof has said that the character of Juliet is responsible for the Lost finale.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Lindelof, who executive produces the show alongside Carlton Cuse, claimed that Elizabeth Mitchell's character "birthed season six".
"She is completely responsible for the end game of the show," he revealed. "So the character is going to be seen in a slightly different light this year. We gave her that action for a reason, and that's because she's so important to the fabric of the story."
Cuse added of Juliet's demise in the season five finale: "Damon and I came to a place where we came up with a fantastic 'ending' (for Juliet). And ending is in quotations, of course, because just because a character's died doesn't mean that their story's over on Lost."
Earlier this year, Mitchell confirmed that she would be returning to the show to film "more than one" episode of the final season.
