    Powers: Sharlto Copley On Season 2 Being Closer To The Comics

    New episodes of Powers are dropping weekly on the PlayStation Network, and late last year, we visited the new Georgia sets of the series to speak with members of the cast, including Sharlto Copley who plays the lead character, Christian Walker.

    New challenges will face Christian in Season 2, but most exciting for Copley seems to be the notion that the series is veering more in the directions set by the Powers comic books and graphic novels by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming.

    Purchase Powers Volume 1: Who Killed Retro Girl? from Amazon.com at a discounted price to read the stories that inspired the show!

    “We’re doing quite a lot of things in Season 2, a little differently as far as bringing it back closer to the comic book,” Copley says. “I hadn’t actually read the comic books at all in Season 1; the showrunner had asked me at that time not to do so, because they wanted quite a different version of the character or different versions of things.”

    powersposterjpg-652c6b_765w“I felt once I read the comics at the end of Season 1, I became a real fan of the comics, and I was like ‘why don’t we do more of the stuff from the comics?’ So, we’re taking quite a lot of things closer to the comics. I think Walker’s character is at a point where it’s like, with the loss of Retro Girl, he realizes a lot of things about himself, and he’s kind of lost everything now. It’s that sort of moment where you’re crushed, and it starts making you question who you are,” Sharlto recalls.

    Another factor from the comic book series that has come into Season 2 is the classic hero SuperShock as played by Michael Madsen… and yes, there is a connection between him and Walker.

    “They have quite a complex history, which you get to find out about as the season progresses,” Copley teases. “It’s an interesting time from back in the day, when they were both Powers. Now, he comes onto the scene but he’s acting rather weirdly from how Christian remembers him. He doesn’t seem all there.”

    Powers is available with new episodes every Tuesday on the PlayStation Network.
