This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.
The following contains spoilers for Paradise season 1, episode 8, “The Man Who Kept the Secrets.”Paradise show creator Dan Fogelman addresses Sinatra’s (Julianne Nicholson) fate after the season 1 finale’s cliffhanger ending. Following President Cal’s (James Marsden) assassination in the first episode, season 1 unravels the mystery and introduces Sinatra, the mastermind behind the post-apocalyptic bunker, Paradise. While the mystery is solved at the end of the first season, Sinatra is seen unconscious on a hospital bed.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the show creator confirmed that Sinatra will be in season 2. Fogelman explained that the season 1 finale was “Sinatra at her lowest point.” However, she’ll find a way to “regain control,” which season 2 will explore. Check out what he said below:
She’s incapacitated. But Julianne is going to be in the show next year, and she’s not going to be in a bed the entire season. However Sinatra, like any delicious leader, even when she’s a step behind the curve and losing control, she always seemed to find a way out of it and regain control. What you’re seeing at the end of the season is Sinatra at her lowest point. She’s lost control. She’s physically incapacitated. This crazy young woman [Jane] is hovering over her and so the question of season two is: How does she come back to center? How does she try to regain power? Is she able to? Do the turn of events cause a change in her? Those are all the large questions on the table.
Fogelman further teases that he plans to involve the character in a bigger mystery. Read his comment below:
Oh, absolutely. Yes, yes, absolutely. Before you came on for this interview, I was just pitching Julianne some giant stuff from season two, all out of order and complicated (laughs). But yes, it’s fair to say that Sinatra remains the driver of this bunker city and as we get into season two down below [in the bunker], there’s a bigger story and mystery that involves this city that Julianne’s character has been at the forefront of the entire time. So there’s a lot more to be revealed.
