Evangeline Lilly, known for her role in "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," recently revealed her feelings about her early acting days on the hit series "Lost." In an interview on the "Happy Sad Confused" podcast, Lilly confessed that she found herself cringing at her own performances in the show's early seasons.

She recounted how the cast would gather for "Lost" parties to watch the episodes together. However, whenever there was an episode centered around her character, Kate, Lilly admitted feeling embarrassed. "I would want to curl in a hole and die because I knew I was bad," she shared. Even now, she confessed that she still cringes when watching the first couple of seasons because she feels that her acting wasn't up to par.

The popular series, created by J.J. Abrams, aired from 2004 to 2010, running for six successful seasons. Lilly revealed that it was during the third season that she experienced a turning point in her approach to acting. She went from feeling panicky and unsure to reaching a point where she resolved to stay and really work on her craft.

In addition to discussing her time on "Lost," Lilly also mentioned turning down other significant roles. She revealed that she had the opportunity to play Wonder Woman in a DC installment when approached by Joss Whedon during the first season of "Lost.

Furthermore, Lilly famously turned down a role in the "X-Men" franchise when she was approached by her "Real Steel" co-star, Hugh Jackman. Lilly admitted feeling rude for rejecting the offer and not fully appreciating the opportunity to work with such esteemed actors.

Reflecting on her choices, Lilly acknowledged that she was young and perhaps not as polite as she could have been. Nevertheless, she remains grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow as an actress throughout her career.
