![]() Lysella is the audience in a number of ways. But also, a theory about Lysella is that she is us. “Majority Rule” (Season 1, Episode 7) was an episode that kept coming up over and over and over and over as a fan favorite, and we were never really sure how we were going to revisit it, because we had sort of made the point that we wanted to make about that planet (Sargus 4). TVLINE | Talk about the decision to bring back Lysella ( The Punisher’s Giorgia Whigham) amid everything else in the finale, because that was… interesting. It was representative of the franchise as a whole to end on something that was about the people. ![]() I think that a lot of blockbuster-style, effects-heavy sci-fi franchises can project that from time to time, whereas that’s our mission statement.

The challenge was creating something that would function both as a season finale that set up possible new threads and yet also could be a series finale, if we don’t come back. ![]() Well in this case, without knowing what the future of the show was going to be, it seemed like the only sensible thing to do and the only thing that would be really satisfying. TVLINE | Do you tend to like a less drama-filled finale? No cliffhangers? I think that if we were trying to write and shoot at the same time, the results would be less than gratifying. We really hone our scripts before we sit down to shoot, because it’s the only way to assure a cohesive season. No, we wrote that before we even started shooting a frame of film for Season 3. TVLINE | Were the specific events of the Season 3 finale - namely, the wedding - something you had locked in on before you started filming the season, or is it something that took shape as the COVID delays piled up and the prospect of a Season 4 looked like it might be limited?
