When “Lost” wraps up with the series finale in 2010, Matthew Fox plans to quit the TV business and head to the big screen.

Matthew Fox commented, “I am not going to do television again. That is not because I think film is better than television. Not at all, in some respects some of the best story telling is happening on television. I have done two TV shows — Lost and Party of Five — that have each run for six years. When you add it all up it is in the vicinity of 300 hours of television. I want to find a way to have more control over when I am working and when I’m not. I’m looking for more flexibility.”

Matthew Fox wants to take the time away from TV to spend with his family, saying, “I am (43) and a father of two children, and I don’t want to miss them growing up. I don’t want to find myself 10 years from now feeling like I was an absentee father because I was so focused on my career.”

Fox plans to take six months off when Lost wraps, then plans on doing one or two films a year.
