Philadelphia Daily News have a long article/interview with Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje on their site. Adawale, who portrays the quiet Mr.Eko on Lost, talks about Eko as a character. He even confesses that he almost passed on the offer to portray the Nigerian “priest”.

“I was living in London and it hadn’t aired there,” he said. “So when it came across my table, I was like, ‘Plane crash, Nigerians? No way. Thank you.’

It’s a good read, so check out the interview.
