Interview with the showrunner on plans for S4. Kind of like I suspected, it will be based on book 4, but they are still going to include elements from the solar system, so I am guessing they will be laying heavy groundwork (if not outright including portions of) for books 5 and 6.
'The Expanse' finale explained, and season 4 scoop revealed
James Holden in the jail cell seeing Mao to a cargo hold scene where his crew recruits the camera lady to suddenly holden is riding an elevator.
I tried to rewatch the last few seconds and something definitely weird shows up as Holden is transitioning through the ring but I can't really make heads or tails out of it, just looks like... something that doesn't belong
They've been doing pretty good with FX so far, so I have hope for the future especially if they are less constrained by a specific running time etc.
I would have been mega pissed had that been the end of things. Praise be to Bezos
Also when Amos said "I wont let anyone hurt you" I literally yelled at the screen 'okay that bitch is now immune to all damage because once Amos says those words he will fuck all y'all up'
Nah man book4 is a thin layer of local drama over a shit ton of exposition about the protomolecule civ.... it's also a big intro into whatever happened to them. It would've been too clunky to repackage all that some other season with the filip arc or later.
I think the big concern would be if they do book 4 JUSTICE. There's gonna be a lot of expensive FX shots for it.
