Beware- there are a few spoilers from season one of Continuum below.
Syfy/Showcase’s Continuum wrapped up season one with an explosive finale. I participated in a conference call with the show’s creator/writer Simon Barry, and cast members Rachel Nichols and Victor Webster to talk about the upcoming season two as well as a few other things. Even though the Syfy representative was quick to say season two has not been announced yet, Simon chimed in with a little extra saying he didn’t think the time between Showcase’s airing of season two and Syfy’s airing would be as large as it was with season one, which is great news to hear. No one wants to wait long to find out what happens next.
As far as what to expect in season two, here’s what Simon had to say about that:
I can certainly say that this season [two] is really where we get to play a lot of the relationships of the characters out in a way that we didn’t get to do in season one. As you know everyone now has stakes in this game and as those stakes become chips that can be played, everyone has a point of view about how they can best take care of themselves and also control their own destiny. And actually that covers almost every character. Information comes to light, people make alliances, people split up and break connections and so a lot of the positioning of these characters comes down to how they’re going to control not only their lives in the present but also in the future. And so control, power, and those themes run heavily through season two.
This is the Action Flick Chick, and you’ve just been kicked in the ass!
