I'm hoping all the behind the scenes stuff will be on the DVD set when it is released, whenever that is. I have bought various copies of Sean's stuff based on the behind the scenes interviews and footage. I really want to see him being him, and how he works, how he approaches the actual filming so fingers crossed ...

Me too!!!!

The DVD set will probably be released shortly before the start of Season 2.

"The Last Ship" (another TNT series also renewed for a second series) Season 1 DVD will be released on June 9, 2015.

Considering they were supporting roles and the season 2 is only going to be another 10 episodes, I hope it means they will be coming back to Legends.

But they did say there was going to be some major changes to the supporting cast if I recall correctly.

Amber · « **Reply #563 on:** March 14, 2015, 06:21:56 AM »

But surely, the *ONLY* actor we really want to change is the annoying Ali Larter, continuing the reputation of 'model turned actress' - words to strike terror into your heart if you looking for a talented performer!

SMcFirefly · « **Reply #564 on:** March 14, 2015, 01:06:16 PM »

I guess I am one of the few who like Ali Larter. I thought her and Bean had some chemistry, they should expand on that.

Good chance that Amber Valetta is out. She's taken a female lead in a pilot for ABC.

Amber · « **Reply #566 on:** March 14, 2015, 08:03:44 PM »

Do we think this is kosher given that I can't find it anywhere else?

There is absolutely no indication or announcement from TNT that the licensed box set is out yet and it is available on demand at Itunes and TNT on demand. This looks like a pirate issue.

I'm hoping that both of these actors can still be in LEGENDS SEASON 2. Look at all the projects Sean does
each year. Hopefully their schedules can handle 2 television shows this year !!

Sable899 · « **Reply #569 on:** March 16, 2015, 03:52:57 AM »

Sean should have no problems juggling Frankenstein Chronicles and Legends as they film during two distinctly different periods, but Legends films during the same time that other networks film their Fall series.

Here's a behind-the-scenes look at the filming of #Legends Season 1 Episode 10, "Identity!"

Tradecraft: Legends Undergoes Changes in Season 2

Quote

When the series was renewed (rather late in the game, in December), it was reported that there could be some supporting cast changes. Since then it's been announced that Morris Chestnut, who was a regular on the first season, would only appear in several episodes of Season 2 as a guest star, and another Season 1 regular, Amber Valetta, has booked a new pilot
I really liked Season 1 (though it did take a few episodes to come into its own), so I hope they don't change things up too much (please find a way to keep Tina Majorino!), but the first season ended with a cliffhanger that gives them the ability to shake things up pretty thoroughly in an organic fashion and reshuffle the supporting cast dramatically.
Legends went through a very rough road to production before its first season, too, switching networks and stars in the process. It will be interesting to see what new direction this series, based on the novel by Robert Littell, takes.

The man has his own Emmy, yet he gets no recognition for it. Seriously? They are going to go with the Screen Actor's Guild Award for Return of the King which he only appears for a few seconds?

Looks like parts of season 2 will be filmed in Europe.

Or not, stock footage and sets with recognisable English 'stuff' like red telephone boxes and buses, and black taxi cabs to save money! I remember seeing an episode of something - not "24" but similar - and none of it was shot here, you could see the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye, Buckingham Palace and Nelson's Column in pretty much every scene - especially where they didn't belong! - but the architecture and everything else was entirely wrong. We'll see!
