Ben Edlund - Revolution

Interviewer: What's going on with season two? What can you tell us? Ben Edlund: Season two? I think that it's, we're going to just take the, the sort of lens that we've been looking at the world with, and turn it toward Texas. Turn it. The militia's been fragmented, Monroe's been deposed, all the characters have been, sort of, they don't even know how changed they've been by events, the events of the tower. So, we're going to investigate other areas of this universe, which will be really fun, really fertile. We're going to look at small town life, it's going to be part of it. What is culture here? We're going to look at Texas and we're going to look at the Texas Rangers, which are going to be an interesting part of this. Riding up and show us a little part of some of the other governments that have grown into place after the, the fall. Interviewer: Oh, that's exciting. Ben: Yeah. Interviewer: And, how quickly is news going to get around about what happened in the other, you know, from the nukes and Guantanamo Bay? Ben: Right. Well, with the nukes, pretty much as fast as word can travel because that's a big, that's a big event, that would be, just it would go with the flow of whispers. So, that would be fast, you know. Within, within a week I would imagine the country would know, just from, you know, the telephone game. With the advent of the force up from Cuba, the Patriots, would it they will land as we open the pilot, which starts three months later. We're going, we're going to start to see their tendrils kind of seeping up into different arenas, acting almost as FEMA in one case and acting as sort of a covert, creepy, monstrous group in another. They're, they're going to be a very sinister and interesting villain to watch.
