Vince Gilligan teases his upcoming “gentle science fiction” sequence that includes Higher Name Saul’s Rhea Seehorn within the main function.
With Breaking Dangerous and Higher Name Saul behind him, Vince Gilligan has been busy crafting a model new sequence, which goes to be fairly completely different from the world of crime and methamphetamine he’s been exploring for the final fifteen years.
The brand new sequence, which continues to be untitled, will star Rhea Seehorn, who starred alongside Bob Odenkirk on Higher Name Saul. Whereas talking with Selection, Vince Gilligan gave an replace on the brand new sequence. Whereas it’s been mentioned that it has a sci-fi aspect, Gilligan would name it “gentle science fiction” over “heavy science fiction.“
“It’s going to be enjoyable and completely different,” Gilligan mentioned. “I’ve no prediction as to how of us to react to it — whether or not they’ll find it irresistible or hate it, or someplace within the huge in-between. However I do know it’s a narrative that pursuits me, and Rhea will probably be enjoying a really completely different character than she performed on “Saul.” The bizarre factor is that it takes place in Albuquerque, besides it’s an entire completely different world. There’s no overlap that I can see. She’s enjoying a personality who’s not Kim Wexler, however hopefully individuals will roll with that. I’m nervous. It’ll be attention-grabbing to see how of us react to it.” When requested if he might tease something concerning the plot, Gilligan mentioned:
The world modifications very abruptly within the first episode, after which it’s fairly completely different. It’s the fashionable world — the world we stay in — however it modifications very abruptly. And the results that that reaps hopefully present drama for a lot of, many episodes after that.
Now that the WGA strike is over, Vince Gilligan and the writing crew are formally again to work, they simply want a bit of refresher on what they’ve already achieved.
“We’re formally again within the writers room on Monday,” Gilligan mentioned. “I’m spending most of my time in New Mexico, as a result of I stay right here now. However after I return [to Los Angeles], we’re going to reopen the writers room for the primary couple of weeks in individual. When the strike hit, we had been very near the top of breaking the primary season. So we’re going to return and end the second-to-last episode after which get to work on the final episode. We misplaced a number of momentum, definitely. I can’t even keep in mind the place we had been precisely. So I’m going to be spending this week studying via earlier episodes and outdated notes to determine the place we stand. We’re wanting ahead to getting again to work. We might have been capturing already if it weren’t for the strike. The strike was a tragic necessity, and we’re all glad that it’s behind us. I’m a bit of sorry that we’ll be within the enamel of winter right here in Albuquerque after we lastly do shoot. In order that’s not going to be enjoyable — it’ll be manner beneath freezing and it’s imagined to be a wet winter right here, too.”
