Haven is back on Syfy tonight at 10p and it picks up where the season finale left off. Duke and Nathan are still fighting and matching each other fist for fist. Audrey has been kidnapped and we learn what her kidnapper wants from her. Let’s just say what he wants to know will set up this season’s arc and it is an exciting one. But I am not going to tell you what it is because it is a shocker that you have to see for yourself.
I was recently on a conference call with the show’s stars Emily Rose (Audrey), Eric Balfour (Duke) and Lucas Bryant (Nathan) and the three actors previewed what we can expect during this very revealing upcoming season.
Emily Rose: “Well, it’s interesting. I think Audrey, the first season she just kind of is curious when she finds a connection with the place of Haven, that there’s something there about herself. And then by season three, she’s facing some really, really dark, dark, dark, questions regarding who she is and there’s a – sort of a clock in play. So, it’s really, really hard and I think she’s in a really, really hard place all season. It’s not a fun place for her to be in mentally.
“And I think – it was interesting, we filmed the second to the last day yesterday when we were finishing up the season and there’s this one scene at the very, very end of the season where Audrey is able to kind of ask all of those questions that she sort of dealt with and it’s just neat. It’s neat to have posed a lot of questions to the audience for so long and then finally have a season where some of those things are addressed or directly asked and to see what kind of answers are given is really, really interesting.”
Eric Balfour: “I mean, yes, I think the most amazing reveal for Duke this season is everything that he’s going to learn about his family this year. And even more importantly, there’s an incredible reveal that he learns about his relationship to Emily’s character, Audrey. Duke finds out and reveals some pretty amazing things about his relationship and dynamic with Audrey. It’s kind of unreal.”
Lucas Bryant: “Nathan is now in a place where – in the second season we saw him sort of uncomfortably thrust into the position of police chief. And in the third season he’s kind of manned up a bit and he’s accepted his position and taken more – I think, taken more initiative. And our – Duke – and my relationship with Duke this season takes a number of turns, doesn’t it. I guess it comes – it goes – we fall in love and then we break up again.
“But, you know, the cool thing about – I guess it shows many sort of love stories and Nathan and Duke are sort of arch enemies or each other’s nemesis in many ways. But, what really is under that is a great affection for each other and I think both of them really care about each other and rely on each other. So when they get to occasionally team up, we have a blast doing that and we get – we did get an opportunity to do more of that in season three and I think they do – they work better together than against each other.”
