Product Information

We haven't thought about it," McAvoy told The Times. "I don't think we want to talk about it, but when we do, somebody else will be honoured to step into her, well... if not footsteps, then her voicesteps."

As is so often the case with season threes (hello Buffy, Angel, and, um, Friends), fans should expect a deeper and darker ride. "I think it’s a lot darker, a lot sadder," Wilson told Radio Times. It’s definitely more emotional. I think it was definitely harder to film. There's a lot more going on, I think the introduction of a lot more characters as well. It’s a lot to look forward to."

Side guide

Asked to describe the season in three words, he said "love, loss and death." That… that doesn’t sound like much fun.

Sam is the co-host, producer and editor of the Arrow Video podcast, which has seen year-on-year growth since its creation in 2017, gaining over half a million listens in that time. To keep Dafne Keen in the running, the BBC and HBO could also adapt Pullman's novella titled Lyra’s Oxford, which follows Lyra two years after the events of His Dark Materials. That option certainly makes the most scene if the finale's last title card is anything to go by — although they better hurry up before Dafne grows too old for the part.He’s interviewed a wide range of film icons, including directors such as David Lynch, Quentin Tarantino, Paul Thomas Anderson, Sofia Coppola, Ridley Scott, Michael Bay and Sam Raimi, as well as actors such as Meryl Streep, Nic Cage, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Anne Hathaway, Margot Robbie, Natalie Portman, Kermit the Frog, all of the Avengers and many more. His byline has appeared in outlets such as Yahoo, MTV, Dazed, Esquire, Harper’s Bazaar, Cosmopolitan, Elle, and Good Housekeeping among others.

There is also the chance that a completely new story set in the world of His Dark Materials could work, although the fans are extremely loyal to the source material, and given the contents of said material, this would be a hard one to get right without Pullman's direct involvement. We'd also expect to learn more about the angels (or watchers), as well as being taken to new worlds, including the Land of the Dead, and a world where sentient, elephant-like creatures, the mulefa, roam.Jim Carrey once mistook Sam for Johnny Cash, and John Carpenter told him to ‘Keep up the good work.’ He promises to try his best.

In 2014, Sam went freelance, working directly for film studios including Warner Brothers, 20th Century Fox and Disney, as well as covering red carpet events for film marketing company PMA Productions. Starting out as a staff writer at Total Film, moving up to Deputy Online Editor, Sam was responsible for Total Film’s YouTube channel, where he revolutionised the magazine’s approach to video junkets, creating influential formats that spread to other outlets. Sam is an entertainment writer with NCTJ accreditation and a twenty-year career as a film journalist. And in season two, there was also a moment in the second episode involving a particular bench that was a nod to a big moment in the third book, which hints at how the series will wrap up.At one point, the final book's story was going to be split in two seasons rather than one, but unfortunately it wasn't possible to make it work.
