The 100’ Cast Tease Season 4's Political Turmoil, Octavia’s Transformation, And More

... scars that are left behind the actions that they did whilst on the chip.”. On the flame. Taylor: “I think for Clarke the flame is still so important to her because she still believes that it’s Lexa. She’s holding on to it as a keepsake and it’s still a very important. It plays a very important role in Grounder spirituality. So her having it certainly– it still holds power, but it don’t do the same stuff as it used to.”. On the political turmoil. Porter: “When you’re allowed to stick with your traditions, you can kind of relax in it, in a way. It’s like, this is the hierarchy, this is who we follow, and as a career warrior, this is what I do. Then, everything gets thrown in our faces because of our commander not being there anymore, and how we traditionally find and believe a new commander will come is being thrown into question. There are folks who want to stick with what we know, and then there are folks who want to trust having to deal with the new circumstances that are ...

The 13 Most Brutal Deaths, Ranked

... arc involving Finn (Thomas Mc Donell), Clarke's closest confidant and occasional lover. Desperate to find a missing Clarke at all costs, the normally empathetic Finn takes a turn for the homicidal when he opens fire on a Groundling village, killing almost 20 helpless individuals. It's the beginning of the end for one of the show's most prevalent characters up to that point. 8. The Unity Day Explosion. The ninth episode of the series, "Unity Day," sees Clarke and Anya trying to forge a truce between their people. But the true action takes place far above their heads, as an explosion rocks the Ark during the Unity Day celebration — the result of an attempted coup. Try watching the scene with Kane (Henry Ian Cusick) reciting the traveler's blessing to his mother as she dies in his arms without welling up. It's not Desmond and Penny levels of tears, but it's definitely moving. 7. Queen Nia (Brenda Strong). Easily the most playful of these brutal deaths, as much as a death can be playful. In season three, Strong debuted as Queen Nia, ruler of the powerful Ice Nation. Established as a possible season-defining villain, Nia didn't last more than two episodes before being impaled in ...

Your Guide To Season 4

... of this season,” being out of power will help him be “reactivated” — even if Kane (Henry Ian Cusick) and Abby (Paige Turco) aren’t easily convinced. Still, there’s some good news, at least for shippers: When the season begins, Kane and Abby, Monty (Christopher Larkin) and Harper (Chelsey Reist), and John (Richard Harmon) and Emori (Luisa D’Oliveira) are going strong. Finally, for more on new character Ilian (Chai Romruen), a Grounder who will butt heads with Clarke beginning in episode 2, go  here. Diyah Pera/The CW. How should we prepare. Rothenberg has one last piece of advice for viewers: Because The 100 never likes to make things easy for anyone on screen, more tragedy will take place this season. “The truth is this show has been, from day one, a show where characters die,” he says, adding that he and the writers do think about how the audience will respond to character deaths, especially in the wake of season 3. “We’re not going to tell the story differently. If you ...

The Difference Between Fake 'earth' And 'space' Languages

... to those characters and what I imagined from them. For Emerald City, because of course these are based, it’s a very different adaptation of the Oz books. I grew up reading all of the original Oz books. Part of Oz is that there’s Emerald City in the center, it’s divided into these four regions. That actually kind of wed itself to this idea about the elements that ended up shaping the grammar of the witch language. There are four variants of the language. There are four elements associated with those variants, and then there’s four colors associated with them as well. They’re kind of tied to one of the four regions, and also the four cardinal directions. Actually, this not being a natural language was what freed me up to allow me to do this kind of a thing. It’s the type of thing where because it’s Oz, you can do that. It makes sense. Thank you for giving me the answer that I should ...

The 100’ Premiere Recap

... An ambassador steps up and says, “Like hell it is.” (I love this lady!) She explains that until a new commander can ascend, the capitol will be ruled by ambassadors. She says if Azgeda wants it, they’ll have to take it by force. “Consider it taken,” Echo says after slicing open the woman’s neck. (Man, everyone I like dies on this show…). Echo orders that no Skaikru leave the city, but luckily she doesn’t know about the passageway through the flamekeeper’s temple. Clarke is able to get most of her people to safety. All who are left are Abby, Kane, Jaha, Octavia, and Bellamy. Indra’s there, too, since she’s essentially one of them — she bro-hugs Kane in possibly the best moment of the premiere. She informs them that there are 1,000 Azgeda warriors in Polis and they need to be removed by force. She and O want to start a war; ...

Zach Mcgowan Makes Art Out Of Getting Punched In The Face

... normal.”. And yet, throughout his conversation with Inverse, Mc Gowan contradicts that statement. In one breath, he insists that he’s not as epic as his characters; in the next, he explains that the reason for his current physique — which makes Thor look like a couch potato — is that he once read about the “perfect” body and was simply curious if it was achievable. Piece of cake. “I went to a liberal arts college where I was an American Studies major,” says Mc Gowan. “So I must have read a hundred books about the unattainable body that’s presented in entertainment. It was while reading one where I was like, ‘I wonder if I can attain it?’ For me, it isn’t particularly difficult; I’ve always been an athlete. I haven’t played Charles in a while, but I ran 14 miles this morning. Staying in shape has always been just part of my day; it’s something I enjoy.”. It’s also enabled him to do his own stunt work. From his much-discussed fight in The 100 Season 3 to his brawls and horse-leaps on Black Sails, every time you see a Mc Gowan character in action, it’s not a stunt man. “We use bamboo swords on The 100 so if you get hit, it’s not too bad,” he says. “They ...

How Do You Deal With The World Ending

... to say it took place on a new and impressive set that will be introduced this year and involved a rather large assemblage of characters from both the main and recurring cast… all witnessing something very bad happening to someone right in front of them. Got feedback on our player. We want to hear it. Season 3 ended with Clarke (Eliza Taylor) being told the end of the world was coming, thanks to all of the Earth’s remaining nuclear power plants melting down. Speaking to some of the cast on the familiar Arkadia sets during their breaks from filming that day, I learned more about what to expect as the show returns and Clarke and the others have to process this monumental news. So About the End of the World. Clarke has this horrible knowledge as Season 4 begins - picking up moments after Season 3 - and Eliza Taylor explained, “Her next move is to basically figure out whether or not it’s the right thing to do to tell the people that the world is coming to an end again. Especially to save peace, because of destroying the City of Light. There are going to be a ...

Stoke’s Peter Crouch Joins The 100 Club But Everton Take Share Of Spoils

... any defender, charged out to block the ensuing shot. Gabriel Jesus off the mark as Manchester City rout West Ham again. Read more. Everton , for whom Morgan Schneiderlin made his first start, barely threatened until the 39 th minute, when they drew level thanks to a lucky break. Kevin Mirallas picked out Seamus Coleman on the right-hand side of the box and the Irishman tried to curl a shot into the net. That is where it ended up but only because Shawcross inadvertently helped it on its way, a fact that was made clear to all the officials only after consultation between the referee, Craig Pawson, and his assistant. The goal had initially been ruled out, seemingly because one of the officials thought the offside Romelu Lukaku had applied the telling touch. Despite being level at half-time Ronald Koeman was ...

The Cw’s Got 100 Problems, But A Premiere Ain’t One

... certainly a selling point. Cake Hunters (Cooking Channel, 10 p.m.): This “special presentation” of Cake Hunters asks the age-old question: “A Baker For The Bikers?” All right, that’s a very specific question and barely even a question at all. Bering Sea Gold (Discovery Channel, 10 p.m.): The 10 th season premiere of Discovery Channel’s Bering Sea Gold takes to “Uncharted Waters.” Meaning? “The summer-mining season begins with a lack of gold in Nome, Alaska, leading miners to extreme new locations. Later, Zeke travels offshore to Sledge Island, and Shawn attempts to build his empire with a new claim at the Bluff.”. The Carbonaro Effect (Tru TV, 10/10:30 p.m.): “Magician by trade but trickster at heart, Michael Carbonaro will debut a new batch of unexpected and stunning tricks that will astound and amuse audiences for ...
