Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Dark Matter has been an emotional roller coaster for scientist Jason Dessen, who was abducted from his world and dropped into an alternate reality by that world's version of him. As he desperately searches for a way home with the help of Amanda Lucas, the other version of himself has stepped into his life, but it isn't as easy as he may believe.
Blake Crouch & Jacque Ben-Zekry Reveal Their Favorite Worlds In Dark Matter Crouch is not stranger to his books being adapted with the Wayward Pines television series based on his book trilogy. However, with Dark Matter, he and Ben-Zekry were directly involved in every part of the production and decision-making process.
Ben-Zekry revealed that the utopia that Amanda decides to stay in is her favorite of the worlds. However, she and Crouch each had favorites that set the tone for the series, with Jason and Amanda stumbling into terrifyingly hostile environments. These worlds not only set the tone for the series, but showed them that Dark Matter had truly come to life on screen.
Crouch revealed why Leighton was such a challenging character to cast. However, once they found Dayo Okeniyi and Amanda Brugel, who plays Blair, they were so impressed by their performances that they were inspired to write more scenes featuring different versions of their characters. Dark Matter Is An Opportunity To Flesh Out Characters That Weren't Fully Explored In The Original Book Dark Matter was published eight years ago, so Crouch and Ben-Zekry reflected on how they were able to approach the story from a new perspective, given what they had learned since the novel first hit shelves. They further explored elements that may not have been at the forefront of the story. This included fleshing out certain characters, especially Daniela and her traumas.
What happens to her is rape, Daniella, and her trauma point is the moment Jason1 arrives home, it's not what actually Jason2 did to her. I think that was the hardest but also the most gratifying to be able to tell their stories for the first time. Because in the book it's not that they're not full characters, it's that their experience isn't the focus, We get to know what it's like to be Ryan. We get to know what it's like to be Leighton.
Jacque Ben-Zekry: For sure in the writing, but absolutely a production. I was very, probably irritating to our department heads that this isn't sci-fi, this is speculative fiction. By way, science fiction is a part of speculative, but speculative is like what is our world today? And then let's just change the focus slightly. What's five minutes from now? What's happening in 10 years? Not what is Star Trek and things. I love those shows.
Jacque Ben-Zekry: I would say we both come a lot from the crime fiction world. That's the books that we primarily work in. I do a lot of sci-fi obviously Blake writes a lot of sci-fi. I love the character reveals the parallel between Jason1 and Jason2 to Walter White is a perfect example.
Jacque Ben-Zekry: I would say yeah, buckle up bitches. It's bigger people who are freaking out about six. I'm like, get ready for seven. That's a tough one. Eight? Holy sh-t!
