Fringe Bosses Answer Burning Questions, Including Peter's New Journey

Fringe Bosses Answer Burning Questions, Including Peter's New Journey

 The question of whether Peter does indeed need to find his way home — or, as some theories have suggested, he's already there — will finally be answered in this week's episode of Fringe.

With eight episodes remaining before the season finale — and hopefully not the series finale — what will Peter's journey now look like? TVGuide.com turned to executive producer Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman to get the scoop. Plus: The "X" man returns!

Peter (Joshua Jackson) decided to stay away from Olivia (Anna Torv). What will his journey look like now?
Jeff Pinkner: He's ultimately decided to stay away from her in that episode. This next episode, the one that Joel directed, is going to be a very powerful one and a very gratifying one for the 'shippers. The end of that story is by no means written.

Olivia is destined to die in every timeline, as September (Michael Cerveris) said. Will Peter be able to stay away from her? And with the whole death premonition out there, might we finally meet the man with the "X" on his shirt that Olivia thought would someday kill her?
J.H. Wyman: We never like to put anything into the air that we don't readdress. There was a reason why she said that. You'll definitely get an answer to that. As far as Peter goes, what's terrifying is that when somebody tells you everything that happens, you're going to start looking at life in a different way, like you won't cross the street the same way, would you? You'd constantly be looking extra carefully at everything. It's not the first time she's faced this kind of this dilemma.

Could the man with the "X" on his shirt be somebody we've met before?
Wyman: Don't forget, when that happened, which Olivia remembers, it was a very strange episode that took place in William Bell's mind, so it could be somebody who William Bell (Leonard Nimoy) knows or has experience with.
Pinkner: The short answer is: For people who remember that moment fondly or threateningly, it will get paid off.

Olivia is remembering things that Peter didn't even know. So maybe he's not imprinting his own memories on her? Will that be addressed in Friday's episode?
Wyman: It will. That was the thing that was on purpose, when you realized that something didn't make sense. Sometimes you feel you know what's going on, and then all of a sudden it flips and we're trying to make you look at it from a different perspective, but you will definitely get an answer. [Friday's episode] "A Short Story About Love" is definitely a culmination of all the things we've been working towards and it's definitely a must-see because of that. It delivers on promises and even poses a couple of questions you didn't think of. It's definitely one to see for resolution.
Pinkner: People who like scares, people who like intrigue, people who like romance, people who like answers, they're all well-attended in that episode.
Wyman: It definitely has one of the most terrifying bad guys that we've had. As far as our freaks-of-the-week goes, he's definitely the most terrifying.

Keck's Exclusives: Lost's Rebecca Mader to Guest-Star on Fringe

Keck's Exclusives: Lost's Rebecca Mader to Guest-Star on Fringe

Fringe ended last season with a disappearing act for Peter. In May's season finale, it's Olivia who'll be getting lost. Well, she'll be getting a visit from a Lost alum, Rebecca Mader, who played Charlotte.

Rebecca's character, Jessica, appears in the last two episodes of the season (or series, depending on whether or not Fox picks it up). Producers are keeping quiet on specifics, but they tell me Jessica is a strong, brave woman involved in a case linked to supervillain David Robert Jones.

‘Fringe’s’ Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman tease two upcoming epic episodes

‘Fringe’s’ Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman tease two upcoming epic episodes
Danielle Turchiano
LA TV Insider Examiner

Fringe finally returns to FOX with an all-new episode this week, and “A Short Story About Love” is bound to be an extremely special one for the fans. Not only is it also directed by showrunner J.H. Wyman-- a rarity for a network series delivering a full season order for the year-- but it is the episode that will provide answers as to whether or not Peter (Joshua Jackson) is in the right universe after all.

When we caught up with Fringe cast and producers at WonderCon right here in Anaheim CA over the weekend, Jeff Pinkner wouldn’t answer which Fringe fan theory was correct about Peter and his idea of “home.” But he did promise that the answer will be revealed and will fit what the show has been saying all along.

“We’ve been saying it all along. The show [has been saying it]-- the show has not been lying,” Pinkner teased.

“The whole series has been about choices and impacts and how you impact others. For us there’s a couple of big things about that [paying off this season],” Wyman added.

“Number one, it just shows us that people really started to care about this Olivia. When we first went over to the other side, it was like ‘Oh, I’m never going to like these people!’ But now they love them. They fell in love with them like how we were in love with them.”

Series star John Noble said he really enjoyed the episode because it deals with the strange concept of being attracted to each other based on pheromones: “This particular event is about someone who uses this fact to create [attraction].” And Noble pointed out that Walter is quite intrigued by such a thing because “he loves smelling things and creating smells and digging around in bodies to find the reasons why.” So needless to say, Walter may be in heaven in the episode.

The Latest From "Ask Ausiello"

Question: Anything on Fringe? —Jeremy
 Ausiello: Just a coy answer from exec producer Jeff Pinkner when we asked him about the casting of Henry Ian Cusick and Georgina Haig as FBI agents — the latter of which has been ID’d in some pap pics as Young Olivia (!). “We were unbelievably fortunate to have them… and they really enjoyed being part of the show,” he says. “But to tell you anything more than that would really be a betrayal to the surprise of seeing the episode.” And as fellow EP J.H. Wyman reminds, the duo appear in this season’s 19th episode, which traditionally deviates from the norm (see 2010′s musical “Brown Betty” or last year’s animated entry), “So half the fun is waiting.” Also factor in this: Joshua Jackson, when asked if he has scenes with Cusick and/or Haig, said, “I do not. For reasons I can’t tell you, I do not.” Pinkner also says that the lingering (frustrating?) question of when or whether Peter will return to his timeline will “very soon” become moot.

Fringe Press Release 416: "Nothing As It Seems"

THE FAMILIAR IS UNFAMILIAR

ON AN ALL-NEW “FRINGE”

FRIDAY, MARCH 30, ON FOX

The Fringe team faces a case that appears familiar to Peter. Strangely, it takes place in this world in the all-new "Nothing As It Seems" episode of FRINGE airing Friday, March 30 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (FR-416) (TV-14 D, L, V)

Cast: Anna Torv as Olivia Dunham; Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop; John Noble as Walter Bishop; Lance Reddick as Phillip Broyles; Blair Brown as Nina Sharp; Jasika Nicole as Astrid Farnsworth; Seth Gabel as Lincoln Lee

TVLine Exclusive: Georgina Haig Joins Fringe

TV Line is reporting that Australian actress Georgina Haig has been cast in the "potentially recurring role of Etta, a new Fringe agent who turns up in this season’s 19th episode", which airs April 20th.

Etta will be the partner of the new male agent to be played by LOST‘s Henry Ian Cusick.

According to TV Line:

It remains unclear if Haig and Cusick’s alter egos will be working “over here” or “over there.” (The original breakdowns described their characters as “Alternate Universe Agents,” but Cusick’s G-man was later described as an agent of the FBI, an organization that doesn’t exist “over there.” Confused? Join the club!) Making things more complicated, the buzz is that Haig’s role has more long-term potential than the one filled by Cusick(who is currently attached to ABC’s midseason drama Scandal).

Will these new characters be accepted, like Seth Gabel's Lincoln Lee, or will they be outcasts like Amy Jessup (or in LOST terms... Nikki and Paulo)?
