According to Entertainment Weekly, the woman controversially knocked off by Michael will be making a quick return to Lost next year. The one-episode cameo (rumored to be in Episode #2) will mark Ana Lucia’s first appearance since May 2006.

While this casting news is interesting, Michelle Rodriguez‘s stint really shouldn’t come as a surprise. Last season, her co-Tailie, Libby (Cynthia Watros), paid a special visit to the man who also shot her. Since Michael is now presumably dead, it’s unclear who Ana Lucia may be coming back to haunt.

So I guess the question now is, “When will Mr. Eko return?”

Season 5 of Lost premieres in 2009.
