Filming for the pilot of Alcatraz is now underway in Vancouver. So far, the cast includes Jorge Garcia (Lost), Sam Neill (The Tudors), Parminder Nagra (ER), Robert Forster (Heroes), Sarah Jones (Sons of Anarchy), Jason Butler Harner (Changeling) and Jeffrey Pierce (The Nine).
For a quick look at what we know about Alcatraz so far, I recommend this io9 article.

My intent with this site is to keep you up to date with the latest news about Alcatraz and to provide episode analysis once the series debuts. In addition, I will be pursuing interviews with the creative team and cast when those opportunities become available.
Are you ready to take a look inside with me?

Looking forward to building a new community here with some new friends, and of course all of the old LOSTies I already know and love. :-)

It's good to know you're back! I used to really, really, really enjoy your LOST episodes reviews!
I'm definitely going to check this one out. Jorge + JJ + mystery = must see TV.
Hi Jo, great to find your blog through Bethany Shady! Can't wait for Alcatraz. Any chance you have/would be willing to start a Facebook group? Thanks. :)
I'm so excited about Alcatraz. And to see Jorge on-screen again regularly!
Happy to have found you (through Beth). Will this be a spoiler free blog or details-as-we-get-them kind of thing?
: ) P
I'm very anxious because this series begins. Lost love and always wish that everyone who worked there to do well. jorge very lucky in this new project
Hi, everyone. Question. How are we handling spoilers here? I suppose everything is a spoiler until the show airs, lol. Would the io9 article fall into this category?
Namaste and good luck, Jo.
Jo! This is wonderful news! Thanks and looking forward to yoru blog! :)

Best vibes Jo!!!

Thanksfor the blog Jo. I love the look of it. Looking forward to this show and your thoughts.
maven why am I not surprised that you made the first post, followed closely by Scoutpost? :) Nice to see you ladies.
Great stuff Jo! But I actually read that the idea and original script came from two young writers steven lilien and Bryan Wynbrandt who wrote on one of my faves Kyle XY. Deadline reported that theyre credited writers on the pilot with liz sarnoff and that they created the concept. Can you tell us more about them? They sound like the next kurtzman and orci who also got their big break working with jj.
