If you've spent any time in nerd spaces, chances are you've heard at least someone talk about their love for The Expanse. Considering that the series found new life on Prime Video after it was cancelled by Syfy, the love that fans have for The Expanse is, well, expansive (I'll show myself out). But what about the folks who actually make the show? Is making The Expanse just as much fun as watching it?
As it turns out, people loved working on The Expanse. Actor Thomas Jane, who played Detective Miller on the show, revealed in an interview with our video producer, Ashley Victoria Robinson, that crew members loved working on The Expanse. "I gotta tell you, The Expanse was a show where every time we got picked up for a new season, crew members who'd be working on other shows would then find a replacement and jump on back onto our show," Jane said on our Popversations episode.
"We had a special thing going on up there in Toronto where we shot it. And it was just a very special experience," the actor concluded.
Let's be real, the world of The Expanse was really cool. It's not every day that crew members get to work on a show set in outer space, with futuristic costumes and hairstyles alongside elaborate, practical sets. Who wouldn't want to work on a show where you have to build a sci-fi world from the ground up every season? And, given that crew members kept returning back for more, the particular combination of people working on The Expanse was likely also an important part of this fruitful alchemy. If the people around you are jerks, then what's the fun in any of it?
