I was impressed by his acting skills in season one of Lost. He was capable of playing his role comfortably. The strong,angry bad boy who is in love with Kate. In season two he moved steadily with his role. Season three his acting didn't change. He was always the angry bad boy inlove and then came season four and still all Sawyer could do was shout and fight and save a girl now and then. I hate how his character did not develop over the first three seasons. I don't know whether to blame the writers or him. But since the writers have provided many clever storylines which kept me hooked, I'll blame him. All the other acotrs developed their characters on the show. Mathew Fox was able to change Jack from this strong man into this terrified freak with a beard who needs to persuade everyone to go back to the island. I think we can all safely say Evangeline Lilly has shown us some good acting. Josh is the only one on the show who hasn't really expanded his horizons. He has always been subtle. I think he has the talent to become better and I love his outer image but he needs to add to his acting skills.

He acts the character James Ford superbly. He acts marvelously. This is a character that will be hard to forget. However, like many great actors, I feel that he can only truly dominate on one type of character. That never really should be a issue...

He acts the character James Ford superbly. He acts marvelously. This is a character that will be hard to forget. However, like many great actors, I feel that he can only truly dominate on one type of character. That never really should be a issue though, because if you are likely to hire him, you would use him as the bad boy, because that is what he does great. All in all, I am very pleased that he found his way to television, and into a gem of a show like Lost, so everyone will know his name. Keep it up Josh!

Although born in California, his family moved to Georgia when he was a baby, and he still considers himself a "Blue Ridge Mountain boy."

Had a successful career as a model until he got bitten by the acting bug and relocated to Los Angeles.

After going out of his way to lessen his Southern accent to get a wider variety of work, he had to pick it back up to play the shady "confidence man" Sawyer on the hit show "Lost" (2004).

Grew up in Free Home, Georgia.

His first job was picking up dead chickens at a farm.

He's the second of four brothers.

While he says it looks "cool", he admits to hating the long hair he has to wear as "Sawyer" on "Lost" (2004).

Chosen by "People" magazine as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World. [2005]

At around 4:30am on Wednesday, October 13th 2005, he and his wife were robbed at gunpoint in their home in Oahu. The robber took cash and credit cards as well as stealing Holloway's Mercedes-Benz that was later dumped not far from his home in Hawaii Kai, which is about 12 miles east of Honolulu. They were shaken but unharmed. An arrest was later made in the robbery.

He has been a movie-buff since the age of 3. His favorite film is The Shining (1980).

Shares birthday with mega-model Gisele Bündchen.

He is of Dutch and Scottish heritage.

Was offered the role of "Gambit" in X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) but turned it down, saying the role was too close to his "Lost" (2004) character.

Born on the same day that Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon.

Favorite foods are fried chicken and chocolate pie.

Very close friends with his Lost co-star Evangeline Lilly.

Has earned his real estate license. He said that prior to Lost, he had considered quitting acting; he earned his license to have something to fall back on.

Josh Holloway is best known for playing Sawyer on Lost. He plays Sawyers character very well. He can play both the good guy and the bad guy part. He adds so much humor to the show with his nicknames and such and action with the quests and fights. He also has a great backstory that keeps me watching. I could say that he is the best on the show due to Holloways acting. I don't know of any other actor that could play sawyers part so well. He has also been in a movie called 'Whisper' which his acting was excellent.

Josh Holloway, most famously known from his role in the hit show Lost. Josh plays James Ford in the show, who is otherwise known as Sawyer to most. Sawyer is a brilliant character in the show, he adds just about everything to the show, a bit of humour here, bit of action there, bit of drama here and a brilliant story behind him which we find out piece by piece over the seasons. The show just would not be the same without him, he is a hard role to fill and josh Holloway has played him just perfectly. I would definately watch other shows that Josh is in.

Sawyer is my all time favorite character on the TV show Lost, hands down!!! He had to be the most hated character on the show during season one but I didn't care I loved his character because no matter what he made me laugh. The nicknames kept coming and got funnier as the seasons came. He had this certain type of persona about him that I just couldn't resist liking his character. Granit there was times when he was a jerk off but deep inside he really has a good heart. I would love to see more of Josh Holloway in more upcoming events.

Josh Holloway was born Joshua Lee Holloway on July 20, 1969 in San Jose, California. He and his family moved to Blue Ridge Mountains, Georgia when Josh was just only two years old. He attended Free Home Elementary School and then Cherokee High School Cherokee County in Canton, Georgia. After finishing at the University of Georgia. He joined modeling. He went to Los Angeles and landed the role of Sawyer on Lost. On October 1, 2004, he married his girlfriend Yessica Kumala in Hawaii. On October 13, 2005, he and his wife were robbed, but the items were later found twelve miles from Josh's house. I think Sawyer is a very funny character. I hope Josh Holloway portrays him until the end of Lost.

Josh Holloway is one of the most talented actors on television at the moment. He is perfect in the role of con man, Sawyer, on Lost and is definitely one of the best actors currently on the show. He manages to steal the show on countless appearances, as his portrayal of a tortured child who has fallen on the wrong side of the tracks. Without overacting, Josh has shown many sides to his acting ability. The way his character Sawyer has developed should really be credited, as Josh has developed just as much as Sawyer has in the duration of the show. His acting throughout the latest season of Lost (Season 3) has been simply outstanding. The highpoint of his acting was shown in episode 'The Brig' where he delivered an emotionally charged performance as his character, Sawyer, came face to face with the man who had killed his parents years before.

I look forward to seeing how Josh will depict the character of Sawyer as the series continues. Now that Sawyer has faced his demons, we are going to be show a whole new style of acting from Josh.

Holloway's ambition for acting took him to Los Angeles, where he got a role in the comedy Doctor Benny. He followed that up with lead roles in the movies Mi amigo, Moving August, and Cold Heart. After those roles, he gained notice for his lead role in the Sci-Fi Channel movie Sabretooth with David Keith and John Rhys-Davies. He has also made appearances in Good Girls Don't season1 episode3 "Addicted to love", NCIS season1 episode12 "My other left foot",The Lyon's Den season1 episode9 "Separation Anxiety",Walker, Texas Ranger season9 episode17 "Medieval Crimes", CSI: Crime Scene Investigation season4 episode1 "Assume Nothing", and Angel season1 episode1 "City of" .Holloway appeared in the Aerosmith video for the song "Cryin'" as a thief who tries to steal Alicia Silverstone's purse from a diner, but she catches up to him and beats him up.
Holloway is best known for his role as James "Sawyer" Ford in the hit television program, Lost. The show propelled Holloway to celebrity status, but left him with little time to use that fame to snatch up other big roles. According to USA Today, he took himself out of consideration for roles in both a Brad Pitt Western and X-Men 3 due to the demands of his shooting schedule. Despite this, he found the time to star in the upcoming thriller, Whisper, as well as venture into the world of video games: in Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, he plays the role of a Nod soldier named Ajay. In May 2007, 20th Century Fox approached Holloway for a second time and offered him the role of Gambit in X-Men 4. He was the main contender for the same role in 2006's X-Men: The Last Stand but took his name out of the running due to his busy schedule on Lost. Producers scrapped plans to have the character of Gambit in the third X-Men film shortly thereafter.
Holloway is widely regarded for his good looks. In 2005, People Magazine named Holloway one of the "50 Most Beautiful People in the World". In January 2006, In Touch Weekly named Holloway the "hottest hunk" on television. In the same month, Holloway was voted the 17th sexiest guy worldwide by British readers of OK! magazine. And in March 2007, Holloway was selected to be the new face for Davidoff's "Cool Water" fragrance worldwide.
He is a brilliant actor who does a brilliant job as Sawyer on lost.
