The 100 S&S #41: "Homecomings, broken promises and mass death." - Jason Rothenberg
TBA
Airdate: MIDSEASON 2016 [FILMING OF SEASON 3 HAS COMMENCED]
General spoilers
- Executive producer Jason Rothenberg says that the Bellarke spark is definitely something the writers are aware of as well. "We love those actors and those characters, and it's definitely something that we see the way everybody else sees it," says Rothenberg. "I don't know that it'll be a romantic thing, but the people that are looking for [Bellarke] will be happy. And the people who don't care about it won't mind the way we treat it." X
- The Ice Nation will have to wait: There's so much going on in the Season 2 finale that the "Ice Nation" that has been mentioned on the show will also have to wait for next year. Rothenberg says he certainly hasn't forgotten about it, but it will also be tricky to pull off. X
- What’s Clarke going to do out there alone?
It’ll be strange for her people, for sure. More interestingly, the question is: When we find her, is she just on a walkabout in the woods, trying to chill out, or does she find the lack of a mission impossible, like a soldier returning from a war? There’s that great scene in The Hurt Locker where the guy’s in the grocery store and he just couldn’t function. Is that the journey we find for Clarke? I’m not saying if it is or it isn’t, but it’s definitely an interesting possibility.X
- Does Cage’s death signify the end of the Mount Weather storyline?
Yes, the Mount Weather story has definitely been told. Emerson is alive, though. He’s the one person who survived Mount Weather, and he’ll probably factor into our plans as a threat that’s out there somewhere looking for revenge. But the Mount Weather story was Season 2. We turned the ship towards Mount Weather with the white room at the end of the Season 1 finale, and now, we’ve turned the ship again towards the über story of Season 3 with the City of Light — or, as it turns out, the Woman of Light.X
- Any hope for Bellarke fans?
"It's clear that their emotions have grown for each other," Rothenberg concludes. "I think that they do love each other, but it's not romantic yet, obviously. That doesn't mean it won't be someday." X
- Season 3 (thanks to the 100 subreddit):
-Season 3 will pick up roughly 2 months after the events at MW
(Needless to say, all the characters will be struggling still.)
-Clarke will still be AWOL, going "bat**** crazy" out in the woods somewhere.
-Octavia will find it hard to go back to camp after her time being trained as a warrior and will be resentful of the Arkers.
-Raven's injuries after the finale (the explosion and the drilling) means that physically she's worse off than before. She's also still mourning Finn and coming to terms with her feelings for Kyle, all of which throws new obstacles in her way. But Raven being Raven, she'll power through and rebuild herself and -Lindsay says you'll be seeing a new Raven in S3.
-Obviously all the characters are suffering PTSD, but it was suggested by the cast's reaction that Jasper will be struggling the most.
-There will be MORE MONTY!!
-Bellamy wanted Clarke to stay at camp because she gives him the confidence to make decisions and without her he isn't sure he can do it on his own. So now that Clarke has left, Bellamy will feel resentment towards her. But he will step up in his leadership role and continue to care for the 44 in her absence. (And Octavia will be there looking out for her brother.)
-Lincoln will also be having a tough time among the Arkers, given that his people killed so many of their own. But he will continue to believe in the greater good and keep fighting for peace.
-Lexa will be returning and Clarke is still pissed at her for her betrayal. But whether they reconcile or not Jason wouldn't say.
As for the show itself:
-It will continue on at the unrelenting pace. There will be moments of joy but the essence of the show being about survival, impossible choices and the limits of human spirit will remain the same.
-The show is diving back into hard sci-fi. They started in space and came to the ground, but Jason as always wants to keep each season having a different feel from the last and will be changing it up again. The premier will have a totally different feel. (Much like the start of S2 did.)
-The theme of season 3 is "what it means to be human" - not only in the AI sense but also in how certain characters try to cope with their actions and how they deal with them going forward.
We'll find out how a commander is chosen and delve into Grounder culture and beliefs.
-We find out how and why the bombs fell in the first place.
-We'll be seeing more of the Mutant characters again!! Although which characters we don't know. They will explore the psychology of what it means to grow up with a mutation and how those characters are treated by grounder culture.
-There is a lot of bad blood between the Arkers and the Trikru, there will an attempt at peace and the tension between the two groups will be released slightly at the start of the season but peace wont last long.
General News Snippets
-Ricky says his first scene back is a stunt scene
-Aaron had some pretty awesome news regarding merch - Yes, that's a prototype for an action figure!
-Jason says that social media for the show is always a double edged sword, and often sarcasm doesn't translate well to the fans. But as far as fan demands are concerned he will never let that influence the outcome of the show.
