Fox at Comic Con: What You Missed!



San Diego Comic Con celebrated the second season of Fox over the weekend. Although it wasn't so much of an announcement, it was the first time anyone from the show acknowledged rumors and theories regarding the future of everyone's favorite bad girl. Monroe Hayden, show-runner, producer and actress, talked during a panel about what to expect and how it was to create the series form scratch.

Here's what the talk included:

Season One
- It takes 4 hours to edit 2 minutes (sometimes even more).
- The show was inspired by fairytales, Disney movies, (and yes) American Horror StoryMarvel's Daredevil and Game Of Thrones
- The "one shot" fight scene was actually 5 shots put together and took over 50 man hours. It was inspired by Marvel's Daredevil.
Michael Lozano was not replaced by Hunter Tabiendo. His schedule changed unexpectedly and was not available to shoot but was committed to do what he could to fulfill his contract, so he provided Xander's voice. Hunter, who is also Monroe Hayden's cousin, saved the show by standing in. Due to scheduling, Xander will not be returning as a regular but he may return as a guest.
- Brandon Teague, executive producer, passed away in December but years before, he was the one who gave Fox her real name: Tristan Turner. She was named after the hero from Tristan & Isolde and artist, Michael Turner.

Season Two
- Entire season will be released at once so viewers can binge watch which is why it will be released in the summer rather than winter.
- Daisy will join the cast along with Priscilla, Bethany and even Rebecca.
- With Xander no longer being in the show, a new villain will step in and he has a past with Fox's parents.
Allyson Moyer will return as Mina Abrams and that her character will be a bad ass.
- Daisy and Fox's relationship will not be as it was written in the books but it will be in the spirit of it and still very romantic.
- The season will include horror elements as it did last season and follow in the same footsteps with the psychological theme.
