Don't Tell Him What He Can't Do


Damon Lindelof. Who is he, exactly? At the time he appeared on the cover of the above magazine, he was best-known as the creator and co-producer of the science-fiction and/or fantasy TV series Lost, and co-screenwriter of the 2009 Star Trek feature film reboot and its 2013 followup Star Trek Into Darkness. Six years later, he very much remains a Hollywood player (and maybe an artist as well.) 

Note the pencil tucked behind his ear. Is it just a prop, a way of emphasizing that he's a "power writer", or were all those Lost episodes actually written in longhand? Another unresolved mystery.
