Much has been made of Lost star Evangeline Lilly’s intention to quit acting after the series finishes — she even recently told Vulture, “It’s true, I’m definitely planning on taking a break for a little while.” Apparently, Lilly got an offer she couldn’t refuse, because she just signed up for the part of “Hugh Jackman’s friend” in the robot boxing movie Real Steel , directed by Shawn Levy ( Date Night ). Anthony Mackie is joining the cast as well, though that doesn’t violate any self-imposed one-week career sabbaticals. [ Variety ]
