Shannon lives!

According to an exclusive report from EW.com, 'Lost' executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse have confirmed that actress Maggie Grace will return for the show's final season as Boone's (Ian Somerhalder) bratty stepsister.

"We're really excited about having her back on the show," Cuse told EW, "and we have a good story for her."

Further details on Grace's comeback are being kept under wraps. But the news itself should raise a few eyebrows, considering that Shannon was shot and killed by Ana Lucia (Michelle Rodriguez) midway through season 2. (Many of 'Lost''s deceased characters have already appeared this season, including Boone and Charlie, played by Dominic Monaghan.)
