In a revealing interview, Vince Gilligan talks about the shocking ending of Pluribus season 1, including the reveal of the atomic bomb and future plans for the Apple TV+ hit. The creator of Breaking Bad confirms the direction of Season 2, even though fans are going crazy over Carol’s big decision.
Vince Gilligan breaks down Pluribus S1 finale's nuclear twist, Carol's choice, and Season 2 hints in exclusive interview.
Rhea Seehorn plays Carol Sturka, who faces off against the hive mind “Others” in a tense standoff. She refuses to join them because Zosia asked her to. She comes back with a nuclear warhead and tells her ally Manousos, “You win.” “We save the world,” which leaves us with a terrible cliffhanger. The episode “La Chica o El Mundo” ends with “Conquistadora” blasting, raising the stakes even higher in the post-apocalyptic world.
Gilligan says that he and other writers, like Alison Tatlock, know where Season 2 is going. He praises the goat teaser at the end for showing how the Others’ empathy has changed. He likes when fans come up with their own ideas about things like grief and AI. He says, “I want people to interact with Pluribus in any way they want.” Apple TV+ ordered two seasons right away, but Gilligan wants to make up to four.
