Does Born Again feel like getting the band back together?
It does. That was all very special.
When we were cancelled in 2018, they had just pitched me the new season- what the story was going to be and I just assumed we would be shooting on the same schedule. We never really had our moment to say goodbye and close the chapter. It was very emotional, after so many years, to be back and talking about the past and all of those things.
Would you say it feels like a season four?
It does. But there was a U-turn after the strike, where we were headed in one direction which was interesting and valid. The argument was, if we're coming back after all these years, we don't want to just do exactly the same thing.
Marvel looked at the episodes and knew it wasn't quite working.
We shot a whole new pilot and they reorganised what we had filmed to make it feel more like the show we had shot all those years previously. Given what a Herculean task that was, it's very impressive what they achieved.
You previously said, "If we're going to do it, it has to feel different!"
