After the highly anticipated renewal of "Sense8" season 2, fans of the Netflix series are eager to find out what will happen next in the breakout sci-fi drama. Series creator J. Michael Straczynski revealed that several actors would be joining the cast soon as the other clusters would be introduced in the coming episodes.
In an interview with Assignment X, Straczynski shared that there are more clusters aside from the group of eight characters that the viewers have already met. The showrunner hinted that the new cast members will each have a different personality trait to bring to the table.
Straczynski further revealed that not all of them are "naturally good people." He pointed out that not everyone wanted to reveal their identity, which would cause result to possible conflict with the sensates.
The producer also shared that the number "eight," although pivotal to the story, was more of a happy coincidence. While developing the plot for "Sense8," Straczynski revealed that they did not know how many characters there would be. He said that Lana Wachowski (The Matrix) was the one who coined the title of the Netflix series, forcing them to have eight significant cast members.
The possibility of having other clusters has always intrigued the fans. News Everyday recently published four possible plotlines for the show's second season. The publication noted that it would be interesting to see the main group interact with the other clusters. It was said that the latter could further help the sensates discover their true abilities and help them grow stronger.
