Honolulu - Thousands of fans swamped Waikiki to get a glimpse of the stars of ABC's castaway drama Lost and see a preview of the third season.
The entire cast of the show attended the red-carpet event on Saturday night to promote the new season of the series, which airs in the United States on Wednesday. The show is filmed in Hawaii.
The crowd welcomed each cast member with loud cheers, and some lucky fans got their autographs.
Before the first episode of the third season was shown on the big screen, producers asked that the audience keep quiet about it until after it airs on regular TV.
Cast members said they were flattered by the overwhelming reception from the local crowd.
"Believe it or not, this doesn't happen every day," said Terry O'Quinn, who plays Locke on the show.
"I'm not used to it, but I don't mind it. I've never been to a Hollywood premiere, but can't imagine anything surpassing it."
