'Killing Eve' Season 4 makes the same mistake that ruined the Star ... (Inverse)

Killing Eve's fourth season is also its last, but you wouldn't know that based on its premiere. The episode picks up sometime after the events of the Season ...

For all its faults, The Last Jedi brought its trilogy to a place where its follow-up could venture into new territory. To be fair to Season 4, its use of Fiona Shaw’s reliably brilliant Carolyn Martens does seem like a natural progression of her character coming off the unspeakable tragedy she experienced in Season 3. Fennell, in turn, left the show after its sophomore season so that Suzanne Heathcote could helm its third, while Laura Neal was eventually appointed to oversee its fourth. Fleabag’s Phoebe Waller-Bridge exited as the series’ showrunner after its stellar first season and handed the reigns over to Promising Young Woman filmmaker Emerald Fennell for its second. Watching its premiere, it’s hard not to feel like Killing Eve Season 4 is falling victim to the same mistake that notoriously plagued Lucasfilm’s failed Star Wars sequel trilogy. It left the characters’ future together up in the air, but also marked the first time that Villanelle and Eve seemed to both accept the connection they share.

Killing Eve Season 4 Introduces an Extremely Unexpected Character (Den of Geek)

Killing Eve is once again at its off-kilter best in the final season premiere as Villanelle makes a play for salvation and Eve is a woman on a mission. ... This Killing EVE article contains spoilers for season 4 episode 1.

If nothing else, it says something about Killing Eve as a show that there’s no obvious answer, and that this could turn out to be part of a genuine religious awakening in Villanelle or a sign that she is actually losing it for real. Eve’s crisscrossing Europe and even pops over to Russia to shoot Konstantin in the hand real quick to grab some intel, shoot him in the hand and tell him to “get over it,” which feels right. Elsewhere, someone is flaying, torturing, and killing members of The Twelve, so Carolyn, who has been given a “face-saving” demotion to Mallorca wants Eve to find them. Hearing “Nelle” referred to as “Miss Perfect” is so jarring, and Villanelle is so perfectly aware of the beatific imagery she (and in turn, the show) are creating, that it comes back around again to delightful and hilarious. The very notion of salvation for Villanelle seems beside the point, at least until she decides she wants someone to live and then tries talking to God. It’s so atypical of Villanelle it’s worth sitting up and taking notice. It would be easy for all the religious imagery to feel indulgent and on the nose, especially after all the promotional materials and the way Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag already trod such similar ground so exquisitely in its final season, even if PWB is no longer involved with Killing Eve anymore.

Killing Eve review – Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer struggle to keep ... (The Guardian)

It might be funny and sexy, but the spy thriller is out of new ideas. And now even the fabulous costumes are in short supply.

She’s living in a hotel and enjoying a casual thing with a muscly colleague at the private security firm where she now works: he buys her burgers, sharpens her hand-to-hand combat skills, and cheerfully agrees to unfussy sex in a surveillance van, after a conversation about firing a weapon turns her on. Killing Eve is funny, sexy and the source of numerous already brilliant actors’ best work, but it has made no sense for some time. A criminal network called the Twelve keeps murdering beloved minor characters, and Eve plans to destroy it, but what the Twelve wants or why we might care has remained murky.

Killing Eve's Konstantin star details deleted death scene 'Had to be ... (Daily Express)

KILLING EVE's Konstantin Vasiliev has become a popular figure in the BBC spy thriller but the TV actor has since revealed how he almost didn't make it past ...

The spy thriller, which is one of BBC iPlayer’s most-streamed shows, hadn’t always intended to keep certain characters for as long as they have, according to actor Kim. Detailing his relationship with the brutal Villanelle, he said: “There is a strong sense of paternalism that he shows towards (her).” He began: “I had long talks about him with Phoebe (Waller-Bridge) back at the start, and Konstantin was meant to be a baddie who had to be killed off. "So he could have the opportunity to be a more flexible character, show a greater range of emotions,” Kim told Radio Times. Speaking about his character, the Killing Eve star explained how he had championed the longevity of Konstantin, who was only meant to feature up until the fourth episode of the first season. BBC viewers see Konstantin Vasiliev (Kim Bodnia) as a Russian mayor while the fierce Caroline Martens (Fiona Shaw) goes to extraordinary lengths to chase down The Twelve and the person who ordered the hit on her son.

Killing Eve has come to a screeching halt with season 4 return (digitalspy.com)

Villanelle (Jodie Comer) and Eve (Sandra Oh) are back for season four – the final of the BBC series. But the first two episodes move things at a slow pace.

Killing Eve has always kept longtime fans (ourselves included) on their toes with where it wants to go and the twists that lay ahead. In season three, it seemed more that they were willing to tap into the childhood and longstanding trauma Villanelle has been holding onto for so long, spurring her every move in the process. So the theme of season four, it seems, is a little more nature vs nurture in style, with Eve embracing her ruthless side while Villanelle tries to deny hers. At the moment, it seems just to be happy meandering towards its conclusion. If the first two episodes are anything to go by, it's arguable the series as a whole is a little more tortoise and the hare. When the show first appeared on our screens back in 2018, during the height of the #MeToo movement, seeing this will they/won’t they cat-and-mouse game created and led by women was as powerful as the bright pink dress Villanelle twirled about in.

Killing Eve's Kim Bodnia says women make violence 'funnier' (Daily Mail)

The actor, 56, stars as Konstantin in the BBC series opposite Sandra Oh as Eve Polastri and Jodie Comer as assassin Villanelle.

Not because we are better, or worse, but because women are just interested in it. He said: 'It seems as if women can do a lot of things that men just can't do. He said: 'It seems as if women can do a lot of things that men just can't do. Originally meant to be a baddie, Kim explained: 'He is surrounded by women as the main actors. She said: 'It's very surreal, we are just about to start filming the last 2 episodes. Women make it funnier.

Killing Eve, Series 4, BBC iPlayer review - has Villanelle found God? (The Arts Desk)

“I've killed so many people. I don't want to do it any more, any of it.” So said Villanelle (Jodie Comer) to Eve (Sandra Oh) in the last episode of the third series of Killing Eve, soon after she'd pushed Rhian Bevan, an assassin hired by the Twelve, ...

Killing Eve, season four review: The cat and mouse thriller's final ... (The Independent)

The final season of the darkly comedic thriller reunites Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer.

But it’s hard not to expect and want something more from a project with this calibre of performers; it shouldn’t just be “fine”. Fans will surely be sad to see Killing Eve go, but it may be a good thing for the showrunners to wrap the show up now while they still have a chance to control where it goes. The programme is entertaining, and no viewer will regret spending an hour or two with it. As Eve determinedly voyages across borders and around dangerous corners to uncover this secret gang, it’s hard to fully care whether she finds it. Though the wide-eyed kookiness can become a touch grating after a while, Villanelle is always funny: “JUST DUNK ME!” she tells the vicar when she realises Eve isn’t coming. For Eve, it’s a job in private security, which she uses as a front for her real personal mission: figuring out who’s in charge of elusive global assassin agency The Twelve. The now-retired assassin has been living with a vicar and his daughter, who has become infatuated with the mysterious Russian. Villanelle even serves fish and loaves for dinner every night as she wants to have a “roadmap” for good behaviour.
