Uncle Junior's poker buddy just hit the jackpot.
Ken Leung - whose memorable turn as Uncle Junior's mentally unstable protégé on
The Sopranos last season turned many a head in Hollywood (mine included) - is joining the cast of
Lost next season, sources confirm to me exclusively.
The rumor is that Leung will be playing the
recurring role of Russell*, a brilliant mathematician who is capable of great insights and has a tremendous knowledge across various scientific fields. He's expected to first turn up in February's season premiere.
Non-
Sopranos fans may know Leung from his role as Kid Omega in Brett Ratner's franchise killer,
X-Men: The Last Stand.
* May not be the character's real name.
