Anyone else completely obsessed with Dept. Q and patiently waiting for official news about Season 2 to drop? Same. There's a lot to anticipate in another chapter of Netflix's new detective series, but Carl Morck's relationship with his therapist Rachel definitely tops the list thanks to their undeniable chemistry. Sooo...are they gonna happen?
Creator Scott Frank was asked by Collider if there'd be a romantic relationship between Carl and Rachel in the future, and said "I could see Carl having a couple women in his life. Also, his ex-wife because there is enormous chemistry between the two of them as well, even though there’s conflict. Watching the two of them in the room together, I thought, 'Oh, there’s actually a hot chemistry here. It’s really interesting.'"
Not a no!
Meanwhile, Matthew Goode said "I’m going to leave that up to the creator. It was actually, in some ways, a little bit tricky because, for Kelly [Macdonald] and I, we would have these big gaps in between. She’d be in one of two scenes per episode, so we both had a natural wariness. But I ended up loving it. When the therapist that’s meant to be with him turns up, he’s very angry about it. And then, he goes to her house. It was such a lovely opportunity to see this guy who was originally very uncomfortable being there, actually now needs it. Maybe there’s a romantic entanglement. I have no idea. But sometimes I think people shouldn’t be afraid to see a man and a woman navigate a friendship, rather than it necessarily needing to end up in bed. But I don’t know. She’s a brilliant actress. That’s what I can say."
Once again: not a no!
