Q&A SECTION (with Natalie Abrams at Entertainment Weekly)
Question: Why is Jarvis so loyal to Stark on Agent Carter? —Jason
Natalie: You will soon find out! “Howard did something for him that had an enormous [impact] in both his life and his wife’s life,” James D’Arcy tells me. “As a result of that, I think Jarvis feels extremely loyal towards somebody of, let’s face it, questionable morality.” Any guesses?
Question: Anything on Gotham‘s newest addition, Dr. Leslie Thompkins? — Matt
Natalie: I wouldn’t expect her to stay at Arkham forever. When talking about Leslie teaming up with Jim to help Gotham, Morena Baccarin told my colleague Samantha Highfill that Dr. Thompkins will be putting another skill set to use soon. “I do end up taking a job elsewhere,” she said. “I won’t tell you where, but it is a little bit different from just being a physician.”
Question: How will Beckett feel about Castle becoming a private detective when Castle returns? — Charlene
Natalie: It’ll be quite a shock for Beckett to learn the truth that Castle is a P.I., but it won’t be long before the two are working together again. One could even say it adds a new spark to their relationship having to work in secret. However, Gates won’t be as lenient with the rules, forcing Castle to take unconventional methods to get the job done—methods that end in injury.
Question: Anything on Forever? — Etienne
Natalie: Though Henry fears death, he’ll find himself in a compromising position in an upcoming episode. “We will see him take his own life at some point to get out of a bind,” executive producer Matt Miller says, teasing that it will be a real struggle for him.
That’s it. Enjoy!
Have a great weekend!!
