Chuck Comic-Con 2008: Zac Levi

While I wasn’t able to sit in on the actual CHUCK panel today because of my Pushing Daisies duties, I was able to work the press room instead. First we sat down with creators and Exec. Producers Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak then Yvonne Strahovski and Adam Baldwin before finally getting the man Zac Levi.

Here’s what we learned through our interviews…

  • When season 2 kicks off, an indistinguishable amount of time will have passed.
  • Season 2 will deal more with the mythology of the show, ie. why Chuck was chosen. That does not mean that there will be less mystery of the week-ness to the show.
  • They will be delving into character backstories more.
  • According to Schwartz, “There will be swooningly romantic” moments this season, especially in Ep. 2.03 where there’s a moment that makes him misty every time he watches it.
  • There will be a King of Kong type moment where Chuck tries to find the guy that holds the worlds record on Missile Command and it turns out to be fellow Nerd Herder Jeff.
  • According to Strahovski, the introduction of Jill (Chuck’s mythical ex played by Jordana Brewster) causing a new range of emotions for Sarah. She’ll be jealous and somewhat insecure.
  • Sarah will no longer work at Weinerlicious, this season she will work at a Pinkberry type shop called Orange Orange (that is actually completely blue on the inside which makes Levi chuckle).
  • Here’s a list of the confirmed guest stars for Season 2 so far: Tony Hale, Jordana Brewster, Nicole Richie, Michael Clarke Duncan, John Larroquette, Melinda Clark, Ben Savage, NY Giants Michael Strahan. Schwartz reiterates that this is will not be a Love Boat like scenario but admits that some of it is to help remind people of the show by these castings.

    I’m bummed that I didn’t get to see the actual panel or the 6 minute Chuck Season 2 reel but I’ll survive. I cannot wait for Season 2 to begin this fall on NBC.
