Let's bring out our group here starting out with executive producer creator Jason Rothenberg

He plays bellamy Blake, please Welcome Bob Marley
She plays Octavia Blake, please welcome Marie Avgeropoulos
Raven Reyes is Alive, please welcome Lindsey Morgan
Please welcome the man who plays Murphy, Richard Harmon.
He plays Monty, please welcome Chris Larkin
And, then we've got another Executive Producer, a frequent Director on this series, please welcome Dean White
so uh
Let's start out Jason with that time jump
I mean shows do time jumps sometimes, but six years is a big one. Uh you know
Why did you decide you know let's do this now?
I mean we've talked before about the show actually was a pretty condensed time period For the characters
So now you're leaping forward. What does it feel like okay? Let's let's do this now
Well, we talked a lot last season about how the world would not be
Survivable for five years and so because I know these guys got hated wearing hazmat suits
I figured let's jump ahead so they can come out without hazmat suit. Thank you very. Thank you so much.
And what can you say about that prisoner ship because that's a whole new Element to add to the series at this point
well without spoiling too much of the prison ship they're from Earth
I think I've heard some speculation that maybe they weren't and it's there from our time
So they're from before the first apocalypse. Which is a spoiler, but
Okay
And that, that means probably cryo, that they were in hypersleep
For hundred years. I think that was planted in certain episodes last year that they had that capability
So they've come back to this planet that they don't recognize that it has been
Destroyed twice, and all that's left is this garden of eden that Clark's been living in with her daughter
And you know it will not be big enough for everybody
So Eliza let's talk about Madi. Who's not her biological daughter
No, let's make that clear
But, can you talk about what do you think about the time jump when you hear they're doing it and about this new character that's going
To be so crucial to clark. Well I've been playing an 18 year old
for four years since I was 23 so it's kind of nice to be to be playing
Someone a little close to my age because I don't know how much longer we were going to get away with that
and
Yeah, it's just I think it's exciting to see you know it will be to see us like you know me as like a you
know 24 year old woman
who has gone through so much and she's taking on this maternal role looking after this little tiny nightblood
Um, Bob you know with when clark thought she might not make it, which we are sure that not to be the truth
You know she kind of was passing on leadership to him to bellamy you know
He's gone through a lot up prior to that. You know did he think this was a challenge?
he has rhythm too in those six years um I'd like to think that he has I think the
He has taken on the advice of the head in the heart. I mean from what I've been told
I don't know that much other so I guess from what what Jason has told me if he can be trusted
Bellamy has grown up a little bit. I think
But yeah that the six new Tom Jones kind of crazy because it's only six months for us
But we got to figure out what they've done for the last six years and find those characters again. Yeah
Yeah, yeah, there's got to be a reset sort of for all you guys and you know murray with Octavia
I mean she was put in charge of a lot of people and we saw in the finale the
insecurity she had about that and she was a character was so much sort of on the fringe and
Literally had to hide for most of her life
What do you think it's been like fur to now be spotlight in this way after all the sort of on the one?
Um I think octavia doesn't have a clue what she's doing
Because she doesn't want to you know set off the Chaos with the 1200 people
in
the bunker because it was her idea to throw to have one crew and have this mixed bag of
Cleanse and of course they're not wanting to let go of previous animosities that they have towards one another
so just
similar to
The way she was trapped under the floor on the ark the same thing is kind of going in the bunker
where you know you can't just run around and break the laws and cause riots and
in season five you'll see in fact what octavia's plan is to keep the peace and how she
reprimands others in her own special way for
Stepping out of line for her special way specialize away
It won't see a peaceful way possibly
Lindsay you know I feel like every season. I say ribbons been through a lot. She has been
You know but now I mean we saw in that finale uh you know how essential
She was just getting them saving them getting off the planet. Do you think that in this situation?
They've been in all these years that she sort of thrived
I mean, I would feel it's a small group up there, but she would be a very key member of that group uh
uh
um you know Raven is is so special because she is so smart and she
You know is a key ingredient
I feel in the hundred mix and for their survival
But I think also you know
Though Ravens so smart you know her heart weighs on her a lot the only reason why everyone is in space is because of Raven
Ravens like I'm Gonna kill myself. No. No not like that. She was just like more like
Can someone come pick me up because I want to go to the bunker and her friends are like?
Yeah, of course. I'll be there in ten minutes and oops were stuck now
What do we do so I think Raven feels a lot of responsibility for everyone's?
Well-being to be saved
And that's why you know her taking them to space in the finale was so important for her and now in space
It's a lot for her to make sure that
everyone's Survivable in that we can hopefully get back down to the Earth once and once it's habitable again Mm-Hmm, and
Jim pritchard you kind of like octavia that you were
Murphy was an outsider character for a long time that sort of changed a lot lasting and he was sort of making amends with Raven
Right in the ah yeah come on, and then we saw him in Monty's or just trying to work some stuff out
You know do you think this?
is a veda sighs
Okay
It was really convenient
I feel like that's a character that will especially be fascinating to see after the six years because now he was
With these people do you think that he might be really changed from all this a hundred percent?
I mean
I think all of us have to change up there like you said the six year jump is um is a great challenge
but it's also really freeing in a lot of ways and kind of
Kind of taken the shackles off of you of all the decisions. You've made with the character over six years
I mean a lot of therapy can happen in that time so you can really you can leave behind a lot of
What we've been doing, or keep some of it if you want
but obviously he's going to change because
He's so good in the in kind of like the pressure cooker
Situations and thriving with his life on the line every day and now in space. It's more so just
Living day to day and making it to the time they can go back home
that's very different for him, so I'm curious to see if
Now that he has nothing to kind of like fight against
Can he really just be part of a happy family and I'm curious to see how that goes
seaboard
He's a little bored
Troublemaker yeah, even a he's gonna find a way to have some fun um you know Chris
You know it is funny when you think about the timeline of the shows because it was just a few months for the character
So it's like thinking about a tough few months for monty
Found his dad died had to shoot his possessed mom his best friend died in his arms
You know one was that what was your question?
Then it's up to be monty know my question is actually about
Harper and monty and just the fact that you know would that make that connection even stronger
Given sort of all the loss that he's gone through I think that harper is Monty's
Main lifeline at the current moment and has been for six years I think
Given the loss of Jasper if he'd lost harper as well
I'm not sure he would have made it out of Arcadia
So I think that he owes or his life and she chose him
And I don't know what the result of the last six years has been
I hope they're still together, but even if they're not I hope they at
Least gave it everything they had because I think they deserve that and who knows maybe monty and Murphy are together now spent six years
We can pray a lot can change in six years
dean this is such an ambitious show you know you look at the finale and how much it had going on is it just a
continuing fun
but also crazy
Challenging things to work on this series and to see how much they throw at you
And how much they're doing within you know forty four minutes a week you guys haven't met him before
But this man is like very responsible as well as jason for for the kick-ass show that is 100. Yeah
Yeah, yeah, you guys all love ya
Start interrupting carry on. Thank you. Murray. Yes
Yeah, absolutely
You know I?
For the budget that we have and the amount of time we have to shoot this show
We do some pretty incredible things the scope of the show
And I have my nickname for jason as scopes because that's what he does he gives us this stuff
We look at it and go there's no way we can do it and then we always pull it off somehow and I think that
Makes us better storytellers because we got to figure out ways to you know solve budget problem solve time problems come out from a real
Storytellers Point of view
You know one episode that really stands out to me this past season
in the entire series actually is die all die merrily with
Octavia in the Conclave episode
In typical hundred fashion, it was also pretty merciless
We lost a lot of notable characters
Jason at what point developing season four did you know that you wanted to do that story that episode pretty early on that was kind
Of you know every season we have these tentpole moments that we're aiming for that was the big one
One of the big ones last year was written by Aaron wade ginsburg and Mcintyre great writers my number two is on the writing staff
And dean directed the hell out and it really just it's as good as we've got no. I mean, I think it was
It was everything came together murray was awesome
She really worked her ass off to get I mean I probably more screen time than she's ever had
and you know we just
When I look at that, I feel like we've done this now for five years the team in Vancouver is amazing. Everybody's sort of
All the actors are dialed in it's really fun to be working in a on a show now where we know what we're doing
We know you know what we can do. We know how far we can push, and I don't try to push too hard dean
Jason: But ultimately, Dean: Lie. Jason: (continues) it is my job to try to like
to try to challenge everybody, so you know we can have this sort of epic
television show though
That Episode was also sort of a key one for echo who I don't think anyone could see could have guessed where her path was gonna go
Could you talk about you know what you just had to do with her there and how things sort of change for her there?
I think instead of me answering that why don't we bring out a special guest? Tasya..
Tasya Telles plays 'Echo', new series regular on 'The 100'
Hello there. Tasya, Tasya: hello there
So yeah, uh yeah, I was saying it but guess you didn't hear it cause you guys were cheering into Tasya is now a series regular on the show the
Echo the girl in the cage in season 2, a lot has changed
what we think of her, what we know about her, what what's it been like for you to kind of
Track her this entire way and see where she's gone
Um hello, it's been amazing
Every time we got a script. I was always nervous to
to
Explore more into echo and give life to that character because she was always the character that I felt really
Strongly about, she was sassy she was cool. I love it when she's spat on Bellamy's face when they first met.
Mmm, I loved it, it was so good
We had to practice that one a few times
what did Echo eat for breakfast. Oh
That was years ago. That's a meet-cute. Yeah
Octavia got one too this year. I got the biggest loogie ever in the face from you. Wow
Yeah, who will spit in Bellamy's face in Season five?
stay tuned
