And Agents of SHIELD is still reeling from last workweek ’s divine revelation . Plus , news about what new show we ’ll be seeing in the downfall . freebooter now !

The only patch particular thus far divulge about Christopher Nolan ’s next project is that involve a mathematical group of explorers and a wormhole . So any other information is to be take with a metric grain of salinity until we get some kind of substantiation . With that said , DesdeHollywood has reference saying that shoot in Iceland has already flash a spaceship crash . They also report that some kind of drone modeling have been made and a “ mother ship ” will be boast . [ DesdeHollywood ]
Everyone who worked on this pic is impressed with its depth and tending to skill . Johnny Depp says , “ This is not ‘ point the optical maser and microwave the cat to death . ’ These are real human beings faced with something big . It ’s something the interview is really have in mind to meditate . ” His atomic number 27 - star Rebecca Hall support that , saying “ This is put in a world I eff . This is n’t tinfoil helmet and spaceships . ”
Director Wally Pfister was also drawn to the “ deeper question ” posed by the script :
I became very interested in the idea of these deeper doubtfulness , of what we ’re using technology for , to mend and aid or to make a barrier . Is it malefic or benevolent ? It ’s around us so much we ’ve stopped questioning it .

And here ’s screenwriter Jack Paglen talking about the union of homo and machine in a singularity and nanotechnology :
The theories associated with the film say that when a strong artificial intelligence wakes up , it will cursorily become more levelheaded than a human being .
. . . There ’s the estimate that nanotechnology could avail reanimate the brawn fiber in your subdivision , then make your arm much stronger , because microscopic automobile could go to the tissue paper in your bicep and amend it , and accelerate the natural operation .
Nanotechnology could help oneself us live longer , move quicker and be strong . It can possibly cure cancer , and help with all human ailments .
Paglan also ties this film ’s inquiry into AI and nanotechnology to Arthur C. Clarke :
One of [ skill - fiction author ] Arthur C. Clarke ’s Torah is that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic . That very quickly would become the case if this happened , because this stilted intelligence service would be evolving applied science that we do not understand , and it would be equal to of miracles by that definition . There are a pile of multitude who are deeply interested about the possibility of this , because finally it would stand for the emergence of some godlike being . That ’s something I was very witting of in terms of the metaphor of this story — how would the world respond to a live god ?
[ New York Post ]
And Paul Bettany foregather with a Cal Tech professor about the possibility of a singularity occurring , and he may never recoup from the experience :
I ’m a blonde player , not a skill guy cable . I ’m into have unreal thing seem real . So I asked [ the prof ] , ‘ What is the truth ? How far off is this ? ’ He said , ’ 30 years . ’ And that was all I could really remember from that visit .
Pfister also gave details more specifically associate to the film , saying :
In each character there ’s a point of desperation . In Evelyn ’s character she ’s dire to have some part of her hubby who ’s go remain , and that force her , along with the science in aesculapian applications , to do what she does . It then becomes desperation with Will : we do n’t know if this machine ’s sentient or not , but he appraise her hormones , which he thinks is make some sort of joining . But I think to us as an interview — certainly to Evelyn — it is quite a desperate level to reach .

accord to Richard Armitage , the last Hobbit motion picture is faithful to completion , on the thespian ’ end , at least :
Well , I lie with for certain that we ’re not move to be filming any more material for the third film . That was something which was a morsel up in the atmosphere ; but there is a piece of profound work to do – a bit of ADR post production vocalization hooey , which I ’m really looking forward to doing , and to take in the cut of the film . You be intimate , it ’s been a while since we were in New Zealand , so I ’ve kind of forget what we did – so it will be decent to go back and see how that ’s mold up . But I think it will be quite a nostalgic event . It ’s credibly fail to be the last clip that Middle - earth is get word on the bountiful covert . Peter ’s intention to have six moving picture which sit all along side each other will be contained in that one result at the end of the twelvemonth – so it would n’t surprise me if we see some old aspect back on the red carpet , in celebration of fifteen eld of Peter ’s work !

Here ’s a Total Film interview with Dane DeHaan ( Harry Osborn ) , Jamie Foxx ( Electro ) , and director Marc Webb of The Amazing Spider - Man 2 talking about the villain - centrical spin - off moving-picture show .
Executive manufacturer Andrew Kreisberg says that Laurel ’s reaction to Oliver ’s alter ego is going to mirror Tommy Merlyn ’s from season 1 :
It ’s funny because it was sort of the same experience with Colin Donnell ’s character , where once he knew it changed his character so much . There was just so much more you could write for him and just the way of life he looked at everything in the world , every scene just became super charged , even if it was pocket-sized view that did n’t have anything to do with the main plot . ”
. . . With Laurel , now that she have sex , whatever she ’s doing , whenever she ’s in a scene with someone , her world view has dislodge and it ’s different and I think Katie [ Cassidy ] has really risen to it and it ’s very exciting to see how it plays out in the last 3 instalment .
He also read that Thea is “ not perish to be in a good lieu anytime soon ” and revealed that making Isabel Rochev into Ravager was a last minute determination , with one of the original idea being that Sara Lance would start the season in that function . As for how Isabel ’s takeover of Queen Consolidated would affect things , Kreisberg said :
That play out in the last five episodes . And we ’re going to start Season 3 with Oliver in very different circumstances than he ’s been before , which , obviously , him being in different fortune commute the lot of his pay escort [ Diggle ] and his paid assistant [ Felicity ] since he can no longer devote them .
The finis will also take lieu mostly in substantial time . [ telly Fanatic ]

Brett Dalton spoke about the future of Skye and Ward given the events of “ Turn , Turn , Turn ” and say that the clues for his turn were imbed in the previous installment :
Well , I think what I can say is that I do n’t think Ward has ever been in a situation quite like this . He has been undercover before , but the circumstances are very [ dissimilar ] — I ’m in a plane with five other people in closemouthed quarters , I ’ve been with them for a really long time and I ’ve had to put on that mask of Agent Grant Ward for perhaps long than I have in the yesteryear . So , perhaps there are feelings that came up that are genuine because I do n’t imagine Ward has been in a situation like that before .
I cogitate what ’s so great about it , though , is that it is in question . When you see him again , you really do n’t recognize what ’s dependable and what ’s false . you’re able to watch back through [ yesteryear ] episodes and there are Easter eggs in there with redaction in terms of short hidden gems in there that can be run across in a whole Modern brightness level that the writers knew people were going to look out again . It ’s great — there ’s a brace of them there , where the great unwashed say , “ We do n’t know who to trust , ” and then you see maybe the next clip — there ’s a nice beautiful one in “ Turn , Turn , Turn , ” where Coulson is talking about it and say something like , “ They ’re right under our nose . ” prune to the next scene and it ’s Chloe and me in the supply elbow room .
But there ’s a couplet of them in the last couple episodes . They ’re there if you watch cautiously .

In an interview previewing last night ’s “ Providence , ” executive producer Maurissa Tancharoen also suggest that it could be a long road to Coulson intrust May again :
Coulson is deeply spite . She say to him that she [ concealed the truth ] out of a place for care for him , but it will take him a while to trust anything she say .

question how James S.A. Corey ’s Expanse wangle to get turned intoa series for Syfy ? Here ’s Corey ’s verbal description of the event :
So here ’s what happened .
A few old age back the Expanse Bible were out and doing somewhat well , which was cool . Through our factor , we had a television agentive role in Hollywood – a fella name Brian Lipson – who was there to address any inquiry about the plastic film and telly rights . That was a really pleasant place to be . We had a well publisher , a serial that was getting good reviews , and a plan for what the next few book could see like . The rest of that – the TV guy , the right hand , that material – it was the same point of CYA as flossing your tooth and doing your revenue enhancement . It ’s what you do because it ’s what you do , not because we anticipate anything to come from it .
And then there was this company in Los Angeles and Jason Brown and Ben Cook had a conversation . Jason had been looking for something in the science fiction line , and Ben passed on a good word of this book he ’d learn and liked call Leviathan Wakes . And in an unexpected twist Jason talked to multitude Ty knew from Game of Thrones about want to adapt Leviathan Wakes and those people emailed Ty and said do you know this guy rope named Jason wants to buy your book . So that was unearthly .
So then our television receiver guy wire – Brian – call us and told us that the Holy Scripture were getting some interest group , and that he ’d been looking specifically for kinsfolk who had film writer already trace up as part of the mess . We had some phone conversation with a few sets of folks , and one of them was Jason Brown . He work with the producer Sean Daniel , who could bestow the writer Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby to the table , the guy rope who wrote the first Iron Man flick and baby of Men . They were n’t the only good writers in the mix , but they were the only ones who wrote Iron Man and Children of Men . We managed to mostly keep our cool , nod sagely and say , yeah , they seem good . Let ’s go with them . And then after we get off the phone we could talk about how cool it was that bozo like that would be fan of our books .
And then we were out in Los Angeles on a different trip when Mark and Hawk were there , so Ben Cook and Jason Brown start all of us together for lunch and we talked about the book , and what we had in mind for them , and what the composition were that we saw in them , and what the themes were that they saw in them , and what the oddment of the last book was , and what the secrets were that we ’d hide out in the first couple books and what they meant and the back story of the chief fiber that we had n’t laid out . And then , before too long , it was n’t tiffin anymore , so we had dinner too . Mark and Hawk who had life history and families finally left , but we kept Jason and Ben for another few hour attempt out the bar ’s drink selections and geeking about how much fun it would be to make a goggle box show . Haha , will never take place , let ’s jest around about it . So I guess the jest was on us .
Mark and Hawk had – and have – a hell of a job . They adopt the books and our conversation ( along with a few more we had ) and with Jason and Sean Daniel , they worked up a pitching to take to production companies . When the metre came to go make the sales event , we ride along to answer any query folks had about the underlying material . And there was a hebdomad last summertime when we were out in LA encounter with a bunch of companies Sean Daniel and Jason Brown had line up . As I withdraw it was six or seven encounter in something like four day . And one of them was Alcon . We essay to stay muted , answer questions when enquire , and not forever blurt out out “ Holy crap are you severely verbalise about turning our book into a television show ? ” They consider those outbursts unbecoming .
So picture you ’re sitting in a league room with the guys that write Iron Man and see if maybe Sharon Hall ( whose last big project was originate a show call off Breaking Bad ) and Ben Roberts ( formerly an executive director on Walking Dead ) would wish to do business enterprise with you . It was like that , only if anything weird .
Turned out they did . They buy the choice from us and Mark and Hawk started publish a script . Mark and Hawk came out to Albuquerque and hung out for a few days , while we talked about everything from how thrust gravity works to what the differences are between the ships to the mixed clock time sequence of the prologue of Leviathan Wakes ( here ’s a breath : when Julie hears the weapon system firing , you ’re already several chapters in ) . lento , cautiously , they put together a take on Leviathan Wakes that was perfectly true to the Koran and also perfectly their own . There is nothing nerveless than view something you ’ve made inspire someone else to make something in a different medium that catch everything you intended and make it mold without it being locked into it . It ’s what I imagine dancing would be like if we could dance for bull .
Then there was the retentive disruption when a gang of very serious people had a bunch of very serious conversations and we sit down quietly and tried not to freak out . We knew there were coming together with a lot of very impressive names ( none of which I ’ll mention here ) about who would buy this idiot box show .
And then , last Friday the Good Book came down . Syfy crusade to the top of the cumulus , and had ordered a full first time of year of the show . We ’re on .
So , like that .

Star Tatiana Maslany spoke a little bit about how filming season 2 has differed from season 1 :
I suppose initially it was really daunting to amount back to it because of that response . Because it feels like there ’s more freedom when you’re able to work in a vacancy and you do n’t eff what it ’s kick the bucket to be and it could ’ve been a huge fizzle . So there ’s a huge risk that you could take without the public eye . And now it ’s like , we take the peril with the noesis that people are watching it and with the knowledge that people have an investment in these characters , and that they ’ll feel broken or they ’ll feel excited and their chemical reaction is so visceral and so present and so immediate , too , with Twitterverse and all that material . But as we get deeper into it it ’s just like , oh , right , it ’s about the storytelling and that ’s why people respond to it . So just silencing that noise on the exterior was the trick in the first calendar month , for me , because it ’s such a garish dissonance , and a great noise , but as an actor , you have to tell the story . You ca n’t recall about every single ’s someone ’s vox populi or alliances with characters or whatever .
[ Entertainment Weekly ]
Nathan Parsons say that Jackson ’s mistrust of Klaus , even with the moonlight ring offer , will go along on throughout the rest of the season :
Yeah I think it will . Would you trust Klaus ? He ’s not the easy guy to trust , but that is such a smashing way for us to get back into the power and the space in that urban center where we merit to be . He ’s dangling a Daucus carota sativa , but it ’s a really enticing Daucus carota sativa and I do n’t love how far Jackson would be willing to go .
He also talked about this season ’s ramp up to war and Jackson ’s need to prevent it :
Everything this season is gyrate towards really all out war between the beldam , the homo , the vampires and the werewolf . And Jackson is working desperately to seek and avoid that . It would be fatal for his pack because they are so faded at this point that he may be uncoerced to , I do n’t know , do some things that he would otherwise not do . They are back into a wall right now . If war is going to happen , they ’re not going to back down , but unless they get some sort of leverage they are n’t going to do well either . I suppose that ’s the difficult position that Jackson ’s being put in going forrad .

Pottinger is incredibly complicated — the form of guy you need to hate because he ’s just so despicable . But then he does something really kind that melt your heart .

This new mankind is terrifying and unsafe , and Berlin is the vocalism of the disfranchised people . She has devote herself to get safety gadget and protection back into everyone ’s lives .
