[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”7033″ img_size=”825×464″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Veronica Mars originated on The CW, which, as you can probably imagine; doesn’t allow for much gruesomeness or violence. The titular still went on to solve murder mysteries and in the years since its original release, the network has been showcasing darker content. Still, main star Kristen Bell promises that the show’s new home, Hulu; will allow them to go into an even darker place. Whereas the original series was geared to a younger audience, both the cast and its viewers are grown up now and ready for more serious plotlines.
“It’s going to be a much darker world. It’s going to be a bigger world,” Bell shared with SiriusXM. “It’s definitely not going to be what we did on UPN or The CW, so I want to brace fans for that. That it’s going to be darker and bigger and more cinematic and definitely a little bit different.”
Bell went on to add as well:
“Particularly now, I feel like you wanna see a girl who’s fighting for good,” Bell noted. “You wanna see a superhero without a cape who has nothing at her fingertips but her wit and her intellect and you want to see her better the world around her. I think people want to see a hero again. We had years of loving antiheroes and I think the world is too scary now. We loved Walter White when everything felt safer. It would scare me to watch a show about an antihero now. I want to see the good guys winning.”
There is no denying the kind of lasting impact Veronica Mars has had with audiences, even the fact that we are getting a revival series should be testimony enough. The new show will debut on Hulu sometime in 2019. Are you excited?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
A girl with too many fandoms to count.
