Dominic Monaghan ("Lost") is joining the cast of ABC's new fall drama, "FlashForward," which premieres on Thursday, September 24 on the ABC Television Network.

What would you do if you were given a glimpse of the future? Would you accept what you saw and live life to its fullest, or would you do everything in your power to change your destiny? In "FlashForward," when the world's population is given a glimpse of their future, it forces everyone to come to grips with whether their destinies can be fulfilled or avoided.

Aside from "Lost," Monaghan is also known for his portrayal of Hobbit Meriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck in the "Lord of the Rings" Trilogy. He recently appeared in X-Men Origins: Wolverine and guest starred on "Chuck."

"FlashForward" stars Joseph Fiennes as Mark Benford, John Cho as Demetri Noh, Jack Davenport as Lloyd Simcoe, Courtney B. Vance as Stan Wedeck, Sonya Walger as Olivia Benford, Brķan F. O'Byrne as Aaron Stark, Christine Woods as Janis Hawk, Zachary Knighton as Bryce Varley and Peyton List as Nicole.

The series executive producers are David S. Goyer (co-writer of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight), Brannon Braga ("24," Star Trek), Marc Guggenheim ("Brothers & Sisters," "Eli Stone") and Jessika Borsiczky Goyer ("Revelations").

Braga had some success with Star Trek early on when he wrote for The Next Generation. Some of the best eps of TNG were written by him, and he wrote Star Trek First Contact.

His stuff on Enterprise was terrible though.

Very cool news, I like Mr. Monaghan.

Brannon Braga can be pretty good. His (and Manny Coto's) episodes on 24 last season were generally pretty good!

I love Dominic to death. I know he'll do a good job on "FlashFoward".
So, we'll have to see what will happen.
