In the episode Lost: The Man Behind the Curtain (2007), it is hinted that there is a dormant volcano on the Island. Originally, while scouting for filming locations, series writer/producer Carlton Cuse noticed a big volcano on Hawaii, and planned to use it in the climax of the series. It was supposed to be revealed in Lost: Across the Sea (2010) that the Island's volcano was the "cork" that kept the world's evil contained, and it would also be the place where Jacob (Mark Pellegrino) throws in his brother (Titus Welliver), causing the latter's transformation into the Smoke Monster. The series finale would have seen the volcano becoming unstable as soon as the endgame begins, leading to an apocalyptic scene where Jack and the Smoke Monster are battling each other on the slopes of the mountain amidst heavy earthquakes and violent lava eruptions. However, the studio balked at the prospected costs of these scenes, especially since the set for the Others' temple had turned out to be quite expensive. So the idea was re-written with an underground cave instead of a volcano, and Jack and Smoke Monster fighting on a cliff. Writer/creator Damon Lindelof later stated that omitting the volcano might have been for the best, in order to preserve some mystery, and also because the epic battle might have paled in comparison to a similar fight on an erupting volcano in Star Wars: Episodio III - La vendetta dei Sith (2005).
