Hey Guys,
As executive producer Joel Wyman is currently using his twitter account a fair amount to chat to the fans, I asked him a question about a couple of my favourite supporting Fringe Characters, Sebastian Roche's Thomas Jerome Newton & Peter Weller's Alistair Peck.
This was his response.

Interesting huh? Hopefully we can see some more Newton in the future then! :)

I asked him about Newton during the tweet along, he said that we have not seen the last of him
ReplyDeleteI so need him to come back, every time I see Sebastian on SPN it makes me miss Newton more
ReplyDeletei so hope he's back at some point!!!!! newton was such a cool character!!
ReplyDeleteThis guy seems to be in demand lately. He's busy on Criminal Minds and Supernatural at the moment, too.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see him back on Fringe.
sebastian roche tweeted the following this morning:
ReplyDeleteI think i might be going to Vancouver soon for a little while....
about 17 hours ago via web
:) maybe his return to fringe?!
Probably SPN as it films there and he has been filming episode recently. I will live in hope its Fringe though
ReplyDeleteand he and our olivia have a score to settle.
ReplyDeleteWell he said that SEBASTIAN might be back but not NEWTON. So maybe a different shapeshifter that will take on the same form?
ReplyDeleteBut however he's back, I love this guy!
Me too. In fact, I was watching the last Supernatural episode with Balthazar and my boyfriend was freaking out saying "But he's dead! He killed himself!". I had to remind him that that was on Fringe. HA
ReplyDeleteThey sure seem to have a lot of plans for only 7 episodes left this season unless ...
ReplyDeletethe death of Thomas Newton was one of the sad aspects this season, although it gave a lot of depth to the "over here" storyline... It would be awesome if they could come up with some credible way to bring him back, but I don't see how that's possible as we saw him bleed (mercury, not blood :P) to death....
ReplyDeleteThe only way that springs to mind is another shape shifter who takes that shape, but I don't see the logic behind it as there is a lot of heat on that shape and would make it tough to blend in.
Well, Newton took on the identity of a human over here that looks like Newton, before he crossed over here he might have looked like the shape of the guys from "The man from the other side". There could very well be a person over there who looks like Newton and has nothing to do with the shapeshifters. Just a thought.
