It’s been a year since the season four finale aired, and Lowe, 60, who plays Captain Owen Strand on the show, told PEOPLE about fans’ growing excitement for the show’s return in the fall.
“I hear it in the world, people saying, ‘When is he coming back, Captain Strand? What’s going on?’ I’m happy we’re back with this crazy three-part special — a train derailment,” says Lowe at Fox’s first red carpet event at The Ritz-Carlton, New York, NoMad on Monday, May 13.
The actor says the new set is “everything”.

“I mean, first of all, you just can’t believe how big it is,” he explains. “I’ve been taking pictures on the set, videos on the set and sending it to everyone I know, but you just can’t believe this isn’t a $200 million movie — it looks like it.”
“That we’re able to do that and deliver it like that, as an actor and a producer, is something I’m very proud of,” adds Lowe. “I put that up against anybody. It’s impossible to do what we do on a weekly basis, but we do it, and I love that people love it.”
