He said The Hollywood Reporter: “She let me know how the creator of the world that things could be changing a little under my feet. The show passed the book, The history of the siren. So he was trying to reach an end that fit well and was certainly playing with many of the things he spoke to do in The wills. “
Elisabeth Moss will be executive producer of The willsBut it is very unlikely to appear in the program, unless it is in flashbacks. I could possibly direct a couple of episodes, as he did in Handmaid’s tale.
