Background cast/Others

Minor Others — Others background cast from the Decoy village in "Three Minutes"

Like the middle section survivor background cast, those that comprise the background Others also have recurring roles.

Two of the Others background was formerly background from the tail section survivors (in addition to the named "Tailie" roles of Emma, Zach, and the guest character Cindy, who also joined the Others); see #8 and #9 below. This list is for background actors only, and does not include guest actors recruited and cast for specific roles, who are always credited for their appearances such as Mikhail, Bea Klugh, Karl, Isabel, Ryan Pryce, Amelia, Adam, etc. Also, the named Others characters of Ivan, Jason, Matthew, and Luke also appear as recurring background cast in episodes where they are not credited; these characters are listed in the next table.

The table also lists only recurring roles, since a minority of the background slots have occasionally been filled by one-time background workers, rather than the main recurring Others cast. Some of the one-time actors who are omitted here (because they do not recur) include one individual in the book club, several on the Pala Ferry pier scene, the Staff station OR scene in "Maternity Leave", and all of the identifiable people from the Other's boat during Walt's abduction often referred to as "The Twins" by fans. Appearances before the crash of Flight 815 are denoted by the word "flashback."

Named Others background cast

The following are the background cast among the Others that have been officially credited and named at least once, but otherwise appear as background. This list is for background actors only, and does not include guest actors recruited and cast for specific roles among the Others who are always credited for every appearance such as Mikhail, Bea Klugh, Karl, Isabel, Ryan Pryce, Amelia, Adam, Vanessa, etc. However, stunt background Others are also included in this table.

Name	Appearance	Recurrence	Recurrence	Recurrence	Recurrence	Comments
Ivan Portrayed by: Teddy Wells	2x22	3x01	3x07	3x20	3x21	Credited in 3x02, 3x06, 3x07. Is second from the right, front row in the Minor Others image. Also participated in Ben's surgery in 3x07, as well as Ben's wound cleaning surgery in 3x09 (image), and appeared at the second camp. Was likely also present at the decoy village (see image). Was seen preparing to depart the second camp with Ryan Pryce, and was listed among the dead by Tom. See also image from 3x02
Jason Portrayed by: Ariston Green	3x04	3x21	3x23	4x12	4x14	Credited in 3x04, 3x05, 3x06, 3x07, 3x22, 3x23. Jason also participated (with Matthew) in Sawyer's fake pacemaker operation. Appeared at the second camp. Accompanied Ryan Pryce's abduction team, and was killed by Sayid. However this actor subsequently appeared alive again in 4x12 and in 4x14 as a different Other. See also image from 3x02
Matthew Portrayed by: Dustin Geiger	2x22	2x23	3x02	3x21	3x23	Credited in 3x04, 3x22. Matthew is the character that plunged the needle into Sawyer for his fake operation. Appeared escorting Michael, on the Pala Ferry pier and at the second camp. Accompanied Ryan Pryce's abduction team, but was shot and killed by Jin. See also images from 3x04 3x19
Luke Portrayed by: Joah Buley	3x02	3x16	3x20	3x21	3x23	Credited in 3x02, 3x16, 3x22 (as "Other dude"). Accompanied Ryan Pryce's abduction team, but was shot and killed by Jin immediately after Matthew.
"Quarry guard" Portrayed by: Dale Radomski	3x02	Compare with appearance as "Tourniquet man" in 1x01				Although this character is not named, it was a role for the fight scene with Sawyer at the quarry, and therefore involved a stunt actor, Dale Radomski of the Hawaiian Stunt Connection, who also portrayed the survivor named "Tourniquet man". This character is thus unlikely to recur unless further stunt work is required by the script.
Lou Portrayed by: Addison J. Arquette	6x06					Seen at the Temple. Left with Man in Black's group. Seen at Man in Black's camp.
Bud Portrayed by: Andre Derizans	6x02	6x06	6x08	6x12	6x13	Seen at the Temple. Left with Man in Black's group. Seen at Man in Black's camp.
