Amazon ’s The Man in the High Castle took on the monumental task of adjust Philip K. Dick ’s alternate story chronicle into a television serial . Its attention to detail and profoundness of character made it a must - watch , and , at San Diego Comic - Con , the cast and bunch revealed a bit of what come up next .
First things first : we will get together the titular military man in the High Castle , just like we do in the book , in season two . And Tagomi was not birth a dream last time of year when he traveled to “ our ” reality — the one where the Allies won World War II . These facts were made emphatically by executive manufacturer Isa Dick Hackett during the Amazon show ’s gore at San Diego Comic - Con .
But will we get answer ? “ I was looking for such an resolution in the first episode to why that befall , ” said Cary - Hiroyuki Tagawa , who plays Tagomi . But , he say , time of year two ’s plan is to reveal things by “ not overblowing it and letting it make itself through several episode and build through another proportion . ”
The burden of “ our ” reality on The Man in the High Castle “ plays a function to the extent that it informs the lineament and the narration , ” explain executive manufacturer David Zucker . There are other thing to vex about in time of year two , including a frigid war between the Japanese and the Nazis , the possibleness of a takeover in Berlin , and the mystery of the indifferent zone . We also figure a clip of Juliana scarper from the proboscis of a machine labor by some new lineament , who debate killing her . manifestly , Juliana saw “ his boldness ” and she ’s a indebtedness .
UPDATE : The magazine is now on-line :
Amazon also publish this fresh annoyer trailer , which hints at all the job to come in season two :
One new theatrical role joining the show in season two is a Berlin - born film producer named Nicole Becker ( Bella Heathcote ) . In a press roundtable before the panel , Heathcote told us that she did a bunch of research into Leni Riefenstahl for the role , “ She ’s a documentary film producer , she ’s a Nazi - ish . I conceive she ’s more into her films than she is into Nazi ideals . ” At the panel , Heathcote added that Becker represents the 2d - coevals Nazis , who do n’t support the Nazi ideals as powerfully and are young kid who mostly want to have merriment .
Everyone on the panel was cognizant that their show , set in an alternate past tense , is becoming more and more parallel to the modern world . Zucker said that get a line the world get “ ever more turbulent ” made the show “ ever more relevant . ” The Man in the High Castle , he allege , shows that the same decision - devising that make that alternating universe is present today .
Rufus Sewell , who playact American - born Nazi John Smith , say that he think the show was always relevant . character like his show the extent to which people can delude themselves in guild to make themselves the hero . Sewell elaborate on that theme , order us in a press outcome that his quality “ believe he ’s a decent bozo — he ’s wrong as nooky — but he ’s wangle to come up with a story , as masses do . ”
It was important for Sewell that Smith be a well - rounded theatrical role , because the head of the show is how much of what people do is nature and how much of it is nurture . Of his character , Sewell asks , “ Who would he had been if Hitler had n’t become Chancellor in 1933 ? What would he have done ? Who would he be ? Would he be a good man ? Would he be a defective military man ? Who ’s the Smith that existed in our world ? ”
Or , put the way Sewell put it in the panel , “ You do n’t have to shift the ‘ 50s Father Knows Best far at all to get the Nazi regime . ”
