HIS STORY
Josh was a professional and successful model for several years until his love for acting lead him to Los Angeles where he landed a role in the comedy Doctor Benny. He followed up with lead roles in the movies Mi amigo, Moving August and Cold Heart. Following these roles, he gained recognition for his lead role in the Sci-Fi Channel movie Sabretooth. He also made appearances in Good Girls Don't, NCIS, The Lyon's Den, Walker, Texas Ranger, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Angel. Josh also appeared in the Aerosmith video for the song "Cryin'" and Billie Myers' 1998 music video "Tell Me".

But Josh's big break came in the role of James "Sawyer" Ford in the critically acclaimed series Lost that catapulted him to celebrity status. It was in this audition where Josh flubbed a line, and in his frustation, kicked a chair across the room. J.J. Abrams liked that intensity and hired him immediately. During hiatuses from the show, Josh has taken up several projects. He starred in the independent thriller Whisper and comedy Stay Cool which recently debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival. Josh also ventured into the world of video games in Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. In addition, he became the face of Davidoff's "Cool Water" for Men fragrance worldwide and was selected as the first male spokesperson for Magnum Ice Cream of Turkey.

JOSH QUOTES
"right when i stuck my foot in my mouth and said something stupid i got tapped on my shoulder and there behind me was this beautiful little package with a martini in her hand," he remembers. "she looked me up and down and said: 'give me your number before you leave.'"
"if i were single, i'd have one girl doing my laundry, one shaving me, one bringing me a cocktail and another one coming out of my tent all hungover."
"in order to break through the movie thing, you've got to burn through that atmosphere and it's hard. you've got to work all year at this pace that lost is; it's a fierce pace and you're constantly doing something."
"i’m looking to do a really different role next, more of a character who maybe even keeps his shirt on most of the time."
"i'm a romantic. i can't help it. love is huge to me. i've found that, and it's awesome."
"sometimes, i like to come out by myself, turn the boat off and just chill. how big lost has gotten, it freaks me out sometimes. i gotta get away."
"i get to actually experience what it would be like to be a psycho, which is not a fun one, or to be a cowboy, or to be a weird character of some sort. for me, it suits me. it suits my personality. i'm an emotional kind of person anyway."
"we have changed our minds… only recently. basically, nature happened. if you're in a loving relationship with someone, having children becomes a part of it."
"i wanted to do everything. i wanted to be a pilot. i wanted to be a secret agent. i wanted to be a fireman and a doctor, all that. so i related that through movies and stuff."
"being southern and being the guy i've been all my life, i've lived more on the lighter side of life. i have a dark side, but that's not where i come from. a lot of artists like to come from that."





"Josh Holloway is just.. he's just shining. I think that, of the people I started working
with, he's one of the people i'm most impressed with. How he's grown and learned and he's
been just stunning everyone with his performances."
- Evangeline Lilly

[James "Sawyer" Ford]
"He's definitely the guy you're going to love to hate. But the beauty of it is that there's always a redeeming thing. He knows he's flawed, which is key. He may have a bravado toward other people, and so forth, but then they'll catch that moment when the people leave and you see inside and, 'Uh oh, this is coming from somewhere.'"
- Josh Holloway

SEASON ONE

"In fact, when we were doing 'Lost' we used to refer to the Sawyer character as Han Solo."
- Brian Burke

i had no idea the pain would be this strong
i had no idea the fight would last this long.
"me? i'm in the wild."
"get up."
"why, you wanna see who's taller?"
in my darkest fears rights become the wrongs,
i am still running.



●○●

SEASON TWO

"He cons women and preys on them, and he's very good at it. But on the island, he's fighting with his own humanity. He's faced with himself and doesn't like what he sees."
- Josh Holloway

all along i thought i was learning how to take
how to bend not how to break
how to live not how to cry,
but really I've been learning how to die.
"you know, you don't have to be belligerent just for
belligerent's sake. everyone loves you now."
"bullpucky."
"did that bird just say my name?"
"yeah, it did. right before it crapped gold."
swim out on a sea of faces
tide of the human race
oh, an answer now is what i need.



●○●

SEASON THREE

"It's been quite a wonderful journey this season. And I've enjoyed the evolution of this character, and what the island has done to him."
- Josh Holloway

and the silence, it became so very clear
that you had long ago disappeared
i cursed myself for being surprised
that this didn't play like it did in my mind.
"well, wipe the stars out of your eyes, sweetheart.
because we're going to do this."
"mary. her name was mary."
staring into mirrors
lost in my design
believe in dreams and wait for signs.



●○●

SEASON FOUR

"And he has the potential to be so good in his heart, but then there's this self-loathing that causes him to be self-destructive also, and those two things are sort of co-existing in this guy."
- Carlton Cuse

can you see the wise man simply living, loving quietly?
every breath he takes eternity till the sun turns black
"sure, who are we to argue with taller ghost walt."
"i have a daughter in albuquerque.
you need to find her.
tell her i'm sorry."
don't let your mind get weary and confused
your will be still, don't try
don't let your heart get heavy child
inside you there's a strength that lies.



●○●

SEASON FIVE

"We really believe this is the year of Sawyer."
- Damon Lindelof

i couldn't see the cracks in this fine social scene
i couldn't find the fault with this whole thing.
"everybody i cared about just
blew up on your damn boat."
"how long do we look, james?"
"as long as it takes."
i don't want to battle from beginning to end
i don't want a cycle of recycled revenge
i don't want to follow death and all of his friends



●○●


QUOTES
"Yeah, and that is his.. the evolution of his character, because those things don't work anymore on this island. That's what he's being faced with throughout, is his own humanity, and he can't... doesn't know how to deal with that, so he'll lash out in the only way he does know, and the way that he has learned to survive in society. But we're not in society. [laughs] We're on the island. So he's faced with that constantly, which I love. Because he doesn't know what to do with it, from moment to moment."
- Josh Holloway
Sawyer tries to make me gay.
- DocArzt
If Jack is the Man of Science, and if John Locke is the Man of Faith, then I nominate Sawyer as Man of Heart. To hell with it: Can we just say he’s just the effin’ man?!
- Jeff Jensen-EW
"The audience then all of a sudden finds that incredibly relatable and is really drawn to this guy, and has completely fallen in love with this guy."
- Carlton Cuse
"Instead of destroying lives, he has saved some lives."
- Josh Holloway
"Sawyer. He's a rough boy. I like Jack, but.. Sawyer. I would just devour him. I'm happy to have to put up a fight."
- John Barrowman
And the best guy to hang out with on a time slipping, mysterious, monster inhabited island is? That's right, the hunky, wise-cracking Sawyer.
- Huffingtonpost
He's incredibly heroic, wildly sad and the most human of all castaways.
- 42inchtelevision.com
"He wins most romantic fictional TV character of the year."

Can't believe I've never asked this sooner, but could I get added to the list, please? Sawyer is my favourite character in the whole show, hands down!

Welcome to the thread Wynter!

Sawyer is most certainly one of the best characters on the show, especially when I pretend a large part of season 5 never happened
