The 100 Season 7 is sort of upon us, and sure, we’re nonetheless making an attempt to course of the craziness of Season 6.

To make issues worse, we’re utterly in the dead of night about Sheidheda’s whereabouts or how precisely our heroes will make peace with the Sanctum society.
Regardless of the rationalization for all these twists might be, we’ll have to attend till Season 7 premieres to get some solutions.

Manufacturing has wrapped. Filming for the ultimate season wrapped on Saturday, March 14. Many members of the forged and crew shared emotional goodbye messages as production on the show came to an end.

We’ve not seen the final of Octavia. Although her destiny appears ominous, something is feasible on The 100, and you’ll’t assume anybody is useless (or if they’re, that they will keep that approach). Jason Rothenberg informed Entertainment Weekly, “Whether or not she’s alive or useless, Marie’s wonderful and you’ll safely say we now have not seen the final of her. However whether or not or not she’s useless and we inform her story in flashback or whether or not or not we see her once more within the current, that is one thing we now have to attend and see.”
We are going to decide up immediately after the Season 6 finale. Don’t fret, you will not be left reeling from that finale solely to be confronted with a serious time soar when The 100 returns.

Hope in all probability will not be a villain. Killing off a beloved character is an efficient option to designate your self as the brand new villain of the sequence, however we in all probability should not decide Hope too rapidly. Regardless of not eager to say a lot about this new thriller character, Jason Rothenberg did inform TV Information that he thinks we will find yourself liking her and her fast wit. That is in all probability factor contemplating TVLine reports that Flannery might be a sequence common in The 100 Season 7.
Sheidheda continues to be a risk. Although the Flame was destroyed, Raven (Lindsey Morgan) wasn’t capable of destroy Sheidheda like she thought. He in some way managed to add himself someplace, and he’ll nonetheless be lurking round when the present returns for Season 7. “I feel it is a protected guess that we’ll see him once more,” Rothenberg informed TV Information. “Curiously, we at all times type of arrange all through a season what the subsequent season’s story goes to be. We did that in two methods this season. The Anomaly being one and Sheidheda being the opposite.”
We’ll be assembly new convicts. The convicts from Eligius IV will issue way more into Season 7, with two new convicts becoming a member of the gang when the present returns. Deadline studies that the primary new prisoner might be a personality named Nikki, performed by Alaina Huffman.

On the opposite finish of the spectrum, a brand new character named Hatch (Chad Rook) sounds a lot much less harmful. TVLine studies that Hatch might be “an enthralling Eligius convict who is decided to forge a greater life for these he loves.” Now it is only a thriller who precisely he’ll find yourself loving.
A backdoor pilot will introduce a possible prequel. One episode of the final season of The 100 will serve as a backdoor pilot for a possible prequel sequence. The attainable spin-off might be set 97 years earlier than the occasions of The 100, starting because the world ends in a nuclear apocalypse.
