If the show were to return for more, do you see Mike’s story continuing on in some way? After the Season 1 finale, his story feels complete. That said… yeah, Brittney’s pregnancy is going to be a huge obstacle next season and create a lot of drama for everyone.ĭEADLINE: The Big Leap ’s final tribute to Paula through that final dance was beautiful. I’m super invested in the Gabby-Reggie relationship but I’m also interested in her journey as a choreographer. We felt the same way about Julia’s arc this season for what it’s worth. HELDENS: I don’t think Gabby’s story ends with finding a man. Why not allow her to live happily ever after-with Reggie or otherwise? Or is that maybe the long term plan? HELDENS: We are very hopeful about a season two! The show does well on Hulu, the cast is spectacular, it’s been well received and people who find the show really love it.ĭEADLINE: Gabby almost gets the perfect ending, and I hate thinking what learning Brittany’s secret will do to her. Can you share an update? Are you planning for more just yet? As a showrunner, I can relate.ĭEADLINE: The Season 1 finale sets up where you could go if the show gets another season. He reverts to what he knows best… being a sleazy reality show producer and using Brittney’s pregnancy to set up Gabby for heartbreak in season 2. That all comes crashing down when he hears what Monica really thinks of him (and misses the B side of that conversation where she realizes she loves him). He started to see himself as an artist instead of a sleazy reality show producer. HELDENS: Nick had his heart broken in the finale! He got all caught up in the mission statement of the show within the show (which is also the mission statement of our show) which is that people need art and connectivity in their lives in order to thrive. Who hurt him? Would things have been different had he learned Monica is in love with him? In an interview with Deadline, The Big Leap creator, executive producer and showrunner Liz Heldens breaks down the finale, teases what’s ahead and addresses the series’ renewal chances.ĭEADLINE: Just when viewers think Nick isn’t beyond redemption, he proves he is soulless. The Big Leap has been a modest linear ratings performer for Fox, and the finale aired amid uncertainty for the show’s future as Fox is yet to make a decision on a potential second season. Other highlights include: Mike (Jon Rudnitsky) performing the number he practiced with Paula, leaving nary a dry eye in the house Julia (Teri Polo) has decided to go through with her divorce and spend more time with her children Justin (Raymond Cham Jr.) and Simon (Adam Kaplan) are back together after a quick split that nobody believed would stick and Monica (Mallory Jansen) has her chance to dance after a hidden door accident leaves Brittney out of commission. This is also true for Mike (Jon Rudnitsky), who bravely took the stage sans his beloved wife Paula for a performance that left nary a dry eye in the house. Wile it is unknown yet whether Fox will renew The Big Leap for Season 2, the show’s freshman finale certainly leaves the door open for more.
Gabby agrees to return as a choreographer for Season 2, while Brittney has also accepted the task of breaking Gabby’s heart yet again. THE BIG LEAP: L-R: Simone Recasner and Ser’Darius Blain. Leaving circumstances ripe for Nick to plan an epic Season 2 storyline between Gabby and Brittney (again) that will certainly lead to disaster for all involved. It is revealed that Brittney (Anna Grace Barlow) is pregnant and she’s certain Reggie is the father.
