![]() ![]() This is the first lie Campion catches them in. After losing one of the kids to this deadly fissure, the androids invented a fiction about deadly serpents that live down there, to keep the others away. With both Mother and Father due to break down - Mother has already started oozing white goo from her nose - the Mithraic represent Campion’s only chance of salvation, so Father attempts to make contact by descending into one of the planet’s many deep holes, where they left their ship. She has no choice but to do so since the Mithraic are orbiting the planet in the Ark of Heaven, a vessel full of humanity’s surviving remnants. That ability to take on another form is a surprise to her - it’s the first, but won’t be the last, as she explores the capabilities of her programming. He’s raised on a strict diet of natural produce and staunch atheism: “We will never advance unless you resist the urge to seek solace in fantasy,” Mother tells him, in amongst history lessons of how the androids were spirited away by atheists losing a religious war to zealots known as the Mithraic.īut all Campion has ever known is a loss, and each trauma he experiences pushes him closer to faith, despite Mother’s creepy and misguided attempts to imitate his sister’s face and voice for comfort. A voiceover extols the virtues of Mother and Father, and laments the cruelty and indifference of the world, as the kids fall in the planet’s giant pits and succumb to disease one by one. ![]() That’s the hook of Raised By Wolves, and it starts here, in one of the first scenes of the first episode.Īs the kids grow up, most of them die. When she cries, so does the baby - the boy who lived proves that perhaps fistfuls of wiring don’t prohibit the presence of a soul, even if Mother and Father would both tell you otherwise. Well, eleven, technically, since the last one out is stillborn, but despite their programming dictating that he should be broken down and fed to the others, Mother wants to nurse him. ![]() They’re arriving on the depleted Kepler-22b with the mandate to seed life, which they accomplish by hooking Mother up to some wires in a fancy pop-up tent and growing frozen embryos in little tanks of goo. Raised By Wolves episode 1 begins in the way you’d expect a lofty Ridley Scott-produced science-fiction saga to begin - with two androids crash-landing on a barren planet in a craft that looks a bit like an electric razor. He's going to kind of redefine himself in Season 2.Check out our spoiler-free season review. So I think in Season 2, we're going to see a sort of rebirth, as it were. And in the process, he's kind of been broken down into his most essential elements, as it were. He was completely powerless and he got to this planet and suddenly he was hearing a voice and everyone was worshiping him and he lost his mind, essentially. So the question is where do you go from there and then what's the next step? He's kind of been broken down to nothing. When asked about the character's journey in Season 2, Guzikowski had this to say: This "natural child" most likely refers to the giant levitating space serpent that Mother gives birth to in the season finale.Īnother returning threat is Marcus, an atheist-turned-religious zealot who believes that he is hearing the voice of Sol, a sun god that the Mithraic worship. But navigating this strange new society is only the start of their troubles as Mother’s “natural child” threatens to drive what little remains of the human race to extinction. In season two of RAISED BY WOLVES, Android partners Mother (Collins) and Father (Salim), along with their brood of six human children, join a newly formed atheistic colony in Kepler 22 b’s mysterious tropical zone. The plot synopsis for Raised By Wolves Season 2 is as follows: Of course, that doesn't mean Mother and her children won't come face to face with whatever dangers are native to the tropical zone, but exactly what those dangers are remains to be seen. The trailers even showcase a setting that looks much more lush and hospitable than the barren and desolate wastelands from Season 1. This "different region" most likely refers to the tropical zone that was frequently mentioned in the first season. The climate is very different, and the geography and all that good stuff.” So it's kind of like I've been in California in Season 1, and now I'm going to Michigan for Season 2. So a lot of the lessons that I learned in Season 1 won't even apply. “The one thing I can say is that Season 2 will take place in a very different region on the planet. Although Raised By Wolves was once again filmed in South Africa, Guzikowski confirmed that Season 2 switched filming locations within the country to match with the show's drastic change in scenery: Filming for Raised By Wolves Season 2 began on March 8, 2021, and was officially wrapped on August 15 of that year.
