The freshmen CW series The 100 is all new tonight with it’s Season 1 finale. The new series has already been for a second season. However, not all of the 100 are going to be coming back. The show’s creator recently opened up about the killer season finale, if Raven (Lindsey Morgan) will die and just how many of the 100 will be left standing,
The 100 are starting to dwindle down. The war between the 100 and and the grounders is starting. Now series creator Jason Rothenberg is opening up to TV Guide about the impending battle.
Last week Raven was shot by Murphey. Rothenberg recently told her chances of survival:
“That definitely has huge, huge implications, not only this week, but probably if she survives in Season 2. I would say definitely it makes what [the hundred] ultimately have to do one hundred times harder because she won't be able to be the one to do it. That bullet only gets worse and worse over the course of the episode until she's essentially gone.”
Rothenberg went on to talk about the 100’s defensive capabilities against the grounders, adding:
“They had been in the process of building mines and they have some gun powder that they could probably convert from a mine into grenades, so they'll have certain things but not even close to what they need to defend themselves to the force that's coming for them. They're facing an overwhelming numbers disadvantage. Literally. It's not the 100, it's [the movie] 300. The Grounders are coming in such force and with such skill. The warriors that are coming are the worst of the worst. They're screwed. How they get out of this one is a big part of the story we tell in [Episode] 13 and whether they get out of it or not. I think that the thing that we come up with is pretty spectacular and not something anybody I think has seen before...We jokingly sometimes talk about how by the end of the season you'll have to call the show The 50 and it's not far off from that. At the end of things there will not be close to as many people standing as there are in the beginning. Whether those are our main characters people will have to tune in to find out, but certainly lives hang in the balance at the end.
Find out how many actually survive tonight at 9:00 p.m. on The CW.
