Get ready! Pluribus, Vince Gilligan’s new sci-fi show on Apple TV+, is not a typical story about space virus. Rhea Seehorn, better known as Kim Wexler from Better Call Saul, stars as romance writer Carol Sturka in Pluribus, who somehow does not get infected by an unusual alien virus called the Joining.This virus does not kill human beings, it simply transforms nearly all people into one giant, and excessively cheerful hive-mind. But Carol, grumpy, smart, and not a people person is one of the very few to remain normal. She is now left with a weird mission to save the world of excess happiness. And as Seehorn says, the show will only get stranger now.Pluribus is a rollercoaster ride that even Rhea Seehorn can’t fully explain View this post on Instagram Instagram PostSeehorn has also acknowledged in interviews that she usually does not know what is occurring in Pluribus most of the time, and this fact makes her the most honest guide to viewers. She tells TechRadar that the script is “bananas” and “bonkers,” combining sci-fi, horror, mystery and dark comedy in unexpected ways. What initially appears like a virus-apocalypse story, soon turns out to be something far more psychological, and once again the threat turns out to be not about the body itself, but about the mind.Rhea Seehorn stated in her interview with TechRadar,“It's bending and twisting tropes, like, you think, 'oh, it's a zombie apocalyptic show', and then it's like, 'no, it's not, no it's not this either', and that was a lot of fun. And then you start getting the next script and the next script and I was like, 'where is this going?' I was also like, 'how did that get squished into one hour of television?' It's great. It really is such a journey because where it starts off, you don't expect it when it ends up, and then you need more.”To Seehorn, the confusion is the point of fun. She is pleased that her character, Carol, is as lost as the audience. She also remarked that the tone of the show always changes and it cannot be classified into a single box. One second you feel that you have a clue about what is happening and the next minute, boom, Pluribus shifts the narration to a whole different place.Pluribus will only get weirder from hereSeehorn did not accidentally find herself in this weird world and in fact, she even helped keep it a secret over the years. She told The Hollywood Reporter that she was aware of Pluribus’ strangely intriguing plot three years before anybody had heard about it. Very serious commitment! She reported that she received the scripts from Gilligan after almost a month he revealed he was doing a show and she immediately believed that this is only going to get weirder.In the recent conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Rhea Seehorn said:“I got episode two and I was like… this is just gonna keep getting weirder and weirder. The threat switches from a distinctly physical to a distinctly psychological threat between one and two, but it maintains this real slippery relationship with genre and tone. This would be a show I’d want to watch in a heartbeat. I can’t believe I get to do it.”The creator of the show, Vince Gilligan, has also remarked that a second part is confirmed even though the writers' room does not know it all, which is entirely intentional. Speaking with Radio Times, he said he would like the story to remain flexible, surprising and open to change.“We're lucky that we have a series 2 already in the offing….And I'm excited about that, little nervous too. I don't have all the answers. My writers and I, we don't have all the answers.”Collectively, Seehorn and Gilligan are fully committed to the unknown, which makes Pluribus look more like a fun experiment than a well-thought-out course.What’s coming next View this post on Instagram Instagram PostIf you felt that the first few episodes of Pluribus were bizarre, be prepared, things are going to be even more bizarre. Rhea Seehorn indicates that the surprises that lie in the show will be even more difficult to guess. In the beginning, the threat is not as physical as it is more psychological and Pluribus continues to twist its own genre in surprising ways. She is absolutely into it, declaring to TechRadar that she would watch Pluribus just to see the strangeness, even if she weren't taking part in it.Pluribus has already been renewed by Apple TV+ for a second season, and Gilligan has indicated that he has plans to do up to four seasons. It means that there is plenty of room left for Carol's lonely mission, for the secrets of the hive mind to be revealed, and even more shocking scenes to present themselves. Seehorn tells us that we are not simply beginning the ride, but going deeper and deeper into a world that is stranger and more emotionally intense than anything we have so far seen.For more such insights on Pluribus, keep following SoapCentral.
