Sometimes, their waves are gentle, and sometimes, they crash against the rocks, because sometimes we feel like we're losing track of Nolan, or losing focus on that character.
And then we came back and got a huge amount, but to me, it never felt like we got too much. And the passages that we don't see a lot of, I thought it was a really interesting creative choice to not only focus on other things but also build that kind of anticipation and that kind of mystery about what the hell is going on. happens to Nolan while we're not focused on him.
So yeah, for me, it's all part of keeping it fresh. And yes, there will be more Nolans in the future, but it will continue to have its ups and downs.”
