Glad they ended up giving him a part on the show, even though he’s likely gonna end up dead if he’s the Giant from Jack and the Beanstalk and they end their version of the story in the same way. But if it is in fact a one shot role, I’d think it will still be a significant one, because I wouldn’t think they’d bring back one of their beloved former Losties just to play some character from a random story that won’t leave much of an impact on the overall scheme of things. So this makes me think even more that the Jack character will be Bae. His encounter with the Giant will significantly darken his character, so even if Jorge’s role is brief, it’d still be vitally important to the development of Bae, one of the central characters for the show.
BTW, even if Jack doesn’t end up being Bae, the Lost fan in me is getting a kick out of the fact that Hurley will be dealing with a Jack again. 😉
