Daniel Weyman, Markella Kavenagh, & Megan Richards Talk The Rings of Power S2 | FandomWire Interview

oh your room looks really interesting see thank you guys there suppos a bunch of posters and [Laughter] stuff um Mela first to you as you shift into this second season as nor do you feel the preparation process was maybe a little bit easier because you've already established a relationship with the character that's a really cool question I think yeah I mean I think I'd never done a second season of something before so it was a really it was exciting and it was also I think you're right in the sense of the backstory I'd already kind of really worked on and really worked on with the showrunners and uh these actors and so I really think that that helped and then also yeah the just Foundation was set so it it did help with that but then you have the new challenge of of a new story and new character Arc so uh that was also it helped having that foundation and complemented it well uh Daniel audiences think they have your number for sure right they believe they have your mystery identified all figured out without diving into spoilers and talking about that what surprises are in store within your character's Arc I think the the lovely thing this season is that rather than um it was the first season where the stranger was sort of creating this these energy sort of um what's the word I'm looking for like the these sort of moments of uh energy expression which the the halfs had to respond to this season round we're going to see The Stranger have to respond to other beings creating these energy expressions and he's going to feel out of place he not going to know what the heck's going on and he's going to have to cope with this very new thing in fact most of the Season feels like new stuff for all of us possibly and and so that's going to be great to see them totally out of their comfort zones having to respond to all these different obstacles and and difficulties and maybe finding some Redemption along the way I like that Megan to you will you have a a show of this Grand scale kind of how do you find kind of fit into that into your own bubble and feel that Comfort level of not getting overwhelmed by everything around you I mean I think you put it really well it's it's to not get overwhelmed by the scale of it I think my job is to create in a space with other people um and that is very much what we kind of what I anyway tried to do that's sort of what like yeah art is incredible because you create it in your own space and then you sort of offer it out to other people and then you see how it resonates with people um and that's I think the wonderful thing about this show is that there's so much time that we get to spend filming together and creating that together so that it really does feel like it's ours and there are bits of us that are within it um and then we just get to share it with everyone and that's a really really wonderful thing yeah all right I'm going to put you guys in a quick hot seat if you could give me one word what audiences can expect from season two what would it be Daniel first to you one word pic harp manic thank you guys so much for your time today I really really appreciate you guys thank you so much thank you
