HENRY IAN CUSICK

My theatre background is probably more extensive then my film, and I have done a fair bit of television.

I swim. I do a little bit of surfing. I would say I'm a beginner at surfing. I run. I cycle. I play a little bit of soccer.

I started watching 'Star Trek' as a kid.

I did work a lot in Scots theatre, but I was never really successful in Scottish film or TV until I went down to London - and I had to go to the U.S. to get my big break.

I love the sci-fi world and the way it makes me start to question things.

I like thinking about what could be out there, and I love the questions that sci-fi poses.

That's the thing with 'Lost': you can put a spin on so many things.

'Lost' was filmed in Hawaii, so we stayed there and loved it, so we thought, 'Why would we leave?' It is a bit like growing up in a bubble, but I don't think that's a bad thing, as you will eventually get out and see the real world.

'Not Another Happy Ending' is a romantic comedy starring Karen Gillan and Stanley Weber. It is about these two characters and their relationships.

I love Terry O'Quinn. He's a wonderful guy, wonderful actor.

When I was filming 'Lost,' we'd be in the jungle. The only thing we had to contend with was the sound of the ocean. That was it, really.

Coming off a show like 'Lost,' there were other offers, but it was difficult to get excited about anything because 'Lost' was such a great piece of writing and such a hit show.

I feel like I'm part of television history.

I'd imagine if there were more Scottish people making Scottish movies about Scotland, it would not only be educational, but it would instill a sense of pride.

Hawaii is a beautiful place to bring up a family.

'Lost' fans were fantastic fans. I've said this before, but they were rabid, and they questioned everything - they were merciless, but I loved them for that.

I do have to go to the gym, which I don't enjoy that much.

In film, I think that you do have a little more time to invest in the character compared to television, where you are shooting from the hip and making quick choices. It is the speed of things that is the major difference - certainly in my experience.

Being in Hawaii, it's almost impossible not to be fit, I think.

The viewing figures for 'Lost' were huge. I don't think the viewing figures for 'The 100' are up there with 'Lost'; hopefully, they will be.

I feel like there's a lot of great writing on television.

I love working in TV. TV is fast. You shoot it, and it's done quickly.

I like romantic comedies, as it is a fun and light thing to get involved with.

In an ideal world, I'd love to work on something that is on par with 'Lost' or better than 'Lost.'

I was a theater actor back in the U.K., and you knew the whole play, so you could plot your storyline and character. And then I did 'Lost' and didn't know, and it was kind of frustrating, but I enjoyed it.
