It’s possible James Purefoy won’t be back controlling a killer cult in season two of The Following, if what seems to have happened to ‘Joe Carroll’ in season one’s finale actually did happen. And yes, I’m being as cryptic as possible, but even Purefoy’s unsure what’s happening with season two.
One of the possibilities is that Valorie Curry’s character, Emma Hill, will step up and take command.
“Who knows if the Carrollism movement is even still in existence anymore. I mean, I don’t know exactly what Emma’s place is going to be in the world. At the end of season one, the cult essentially disbanded. Joe is seemingly dead, although she holds out hope that they’ll be reunited,” explained Curry during our interview at the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con. “What I’m more excited about is who Emma is when she’s on her own.”
Curry also discussed her character’s motivation and what viewers can look forward to with season two.
