Parenthood Scoop: Lost's 'Kate' Books Multi-Episode Arc – But There's a Catch!

Michael Ausiello

And the catch is… we’re not referring to Evangeline Lilly!

Emily Evan Rae, who portrayed a young Kate Austen on Lost, has landed a multi-episode arc on Parenthood, TVLine has learned.

The actress will play a member of the student council who interacts with Max (Max Burkholder) beginning in this season’s ninth episode.

Fun fact: Rae’s sister, Savannah Paige Rae, recurs on the NBC drama as Joel and Julia’s daughter Sydney.

In addition to Lost, Rae’s expanding resume includes stints on The Office and Private Practice.

- Totally. I’m sure she’ll be great, but the fact that she looks so much like Sydney might be distracting.

She’s a cutie. I would guess the hair and makeup departments will make sure she’s not a “Sydney” doppelganger!

She’s beautiful.. I saw her on The Practice and she won the Young Artist Award for her performance. Her and her sister are really good actresses. She was also on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Looking forward to seeing her on Parenthood.

Ha! I thought she was the same actress who played Sydney for a second. She will be an interesting addition. But agree that her resemblance to Sydney might be distracting.

Man, Parenthood is getting a lot of press these days. Rightly so, this show has been flying under the radar for way too long and finally deserves some recognition for the fantastic work they have been doing there so far.

Just so we’re clear – Savannah Paige Rae is a regular on Parenthood – not recurring. Opening credits and everything.

When she appeared on the episode last night I knew immediately she had to be related to Sydney. Now I know I’m right.
