The Walking Dead skifter retning i sæson 9
Sæson 9 bliver startet på noget nyt.
The Walking Dead er absolut en af de mere populære serier i nyere tid, og selvom der er sket rigtig meget på de 8 sæsoner, så holder seriens fans stadig ved.
Zombier er bare awesome!
Og selvom vi nu nærmer os den niende sæson i rækken, så ser det ikke ud til, at showet har tænkt sig at stoppe lige foreløbig.
Showrunner Scott Gimple fortalte følgende om finaleafsnittet på sæson 8:
“This episode isn’t just like these 15 episodes coming to a conclusion, but Angela and myself and the writers had always talked about this in many ways being sort of the conclusion of the first eight seasons."
Sæson 8 bliver derfor en form for afslutning på det oprindelige plot, hvor sæson 9 i stedet trykker en smule på reset-knappen og søger nye veje i universet:
“This show will be very much a new show next year and with a bigger, new narrative. It was something I was really excited about getting into even before season eight. And so there was just a certain weight in the air of the kind of conclusion that we were getting closer to. It was a weird graduation for everybody.”
Det giver ret god mening at 'starte forfra' - ment på den måde, at serien ikke ender med at dø ud i de sidste sæsoner, men i stedet bliver genopfrisket med et nyt take, det samme koncept og det samme univers.
Gimple fortsætter med følgende udtalelse:
“With [so] many characters reaching the conclusion of the story that we’ve been laying out for them over the past few years in some regards, there’s just a lot going on, and a lot of perspectives that we’re shifting between and some very, very big emotional and philosophical movement between just some unbelievably insane things happening.”
Det bliver spændende at se, hvad sæson 9 aka. den nye Walking Dead kan i forhold til at udvide historien!
