‘The Regime’ Star Kate Winslet and Creator Will Tracy on That Chaotic Finale, Season 2 Chances and ‘Improvising Up a F—ing Storm!’
‘The Regime’ star Kate Winslet and the show's creator Will Tracy break down the finale, and where Elena ends up.
Series creator Will Tracy says the limited options available to the completely stripped-down Elena and Zubak — as they trudge through the woods, and through the ruins of poetry centers — gave him the chance to play up the ambivalence that she still has about her destruction. Violently whisked off to a much glitzier interrogation room, Elena is confronted by former ally Emil Bartos (Stanley Townsend), who, in so many words, informs her that she can take back control of her country if she agrees to let the ill-balanced partnership between his cobalt mines and the American government pull the strings from behind the scenes. Months later, Elena has been reelected, she has allowed her husband Nicky (Guillaume Gallienne) to return from the exile she imposed on him, and she addresses her adoring citizenry from the balcony of the palace –– from behind the protective walls of a bulletproof glass box.
