Here are the highlights of the Fringe Comic-Con panel:
– According to stars, Joshua Jackson and John Noble, the newfound relationship between the Bishops will be undermined by Walter’s secret.
– Jackson said “Just when [Walter and Peter] get into some Fringe-y sense of a positive family dynamic, that secret is going to come out, and when it comes out, it can’t help but shatter the dynamic between these two guys…That little child within Peter who’s getting hurt is going to get really, really angry.”
– Noble said “There will be no answers early on. We don’t want to let Peter in on that too early. I think it will be toward the second half of the season, I think it will be a massive episode and I think it will be very ugly.”
– Noble tells everyone that Walter and Astrid (Jasika Nicole) have a scene together early in the season, “and it’s very sweet.” Jasika Nicole said “Astrid has this lovely sweet scene with Walter, and it’s not just about the jokes and the one-liners. It was the chance for you to know a tiny bit more about her and their relationship and it was the greatest thing.”
– What about supposedly fired Kirk Acevedo, who played Olivia’s FBI partner Charlie Francis? Executive producer Jeff Pinkner said “Rumors of Charlie’s demise were premature. But I do think that Charlie’s going to undergo some drastic changes, which hopefully will be surprising and entertaining. And we’ve already met alternate Charlie as well. He had a scar on his face. Kirk’s part of our family.”
– According to John Noble, acclaimed screenwriter Akiva Goldsman penned the season premiere.
