‘The Recruit’ Creator Alexi Hawley On Season 2 Finale Shocker, Owen’s Future As “Chaos Agent” & Feeling “Super Positive” About Season 3
"'The Recruit' creator Alexi Hawley talks with Deadline about the shock ending of Season 2, Owen's future as "chaos agent" and thoughts on a Season 3.
I did think the childhood drawing on the wall with a knife and her mom told a bit of a story, but yes, ultimately the backstory that we didn’t talk about is that we had set up that Max had married into the Russian mob, and then had this daughter. He was coming into Season 2 with all his baggage, which is very real, but I think that ultimately, he’s still, in some ways naive, and part of the reason that he latched so hard on to Teo Yoo’s storyline was this idea that the guy is doing something noble. DEADLINE: You said that you didn’t want The Recruit to become a buddy cop show, but that scene in the bar, to me, had a major Rush Hour vibe, Owen and Jang, with backs to each other, doing all these moves and fighting off bad guys.
