‘Altered Carbon’ casts ‘Avengers’ actor Anthony Mackie as season 2 star
Netflix is bringing back sci-fi series Altered Carbon, with some big changes.
First, Avengers: Infinity War actor Anthony Mackie is taking over as the show’s lead character Takeshi Kovacs. Mackie is stepping in for Joel Kinnaman who played the character during the show’s debut season earlier this year.
In addition, Alison Schapker (Lost, Fringe) is joining the series as co-showrunner and will also serve as an executive producer. Season 1 boss Laeta Kalogridis will also return as co-showrunner and executive producer.
The show’s debut season was considered a dazzling-looking drama with some stunning set pieces that sometimes struggled under the weight of its own ambitions. The show also received some criticism for having a white actor play an Asian lead character. In the futuristic world of Altered Carbon, based on Richard K. Morgan’s novel, human consciousness can be put into different body “sleeves,” with Kovacs waking after hundreds of years into a different body. This innovation also makes it rather easy to have different actors play the same character.
As Netflix puts it: “The journey of Takeshi Kovacs spans hundreds of years, many different bodies, and planets. This allows the story to explore themes of identity, mortality, and the human soul. In this new season, Anthony Mackie will be the new embodiment of Kovacs, as the series continues to expand on these deeper themes and ideas across longer periods of times and different worlds throughout the universe.”

Just finished Altered Carbon and I loved:
1. Poe. He’s number one. Always. I love him.
2. Kovacs and his fucking pink unicorn backpack.
3. Kovacs settling important life decisions using the tried and true method of rock-paper-scissor.
4. Siblings settling their dispute with a sword fight.
5. Lizzie. She’s a badass.
6. Poe and Lizzie. I ship it, don’t judge me. He calls her Ms. Elizabeth and she calls him Eddie. Nuff said.
7. The fact that Poe is modeled after Edgar Allen Poe.
8. Ortega and her bionic arm.
9. Literally all the women on the show. And yes, that includes Ava.
10. Elliot. Just everything about him, especially the fact he still loves his wife even when she’s been put into the body of a man.
11. The Raven. I want to live there.
His smile!!!!

“Look, you know how this goes. It’s her word versus my client’s, and there’s a whole backlog of these cases pending throughout the city. No one is going to help her but us. If I were you, I’d go to Mrs. Whatever today and strongly urge her to accept our offer.”
Love this character and I totally ship her and Foggy. Moggy?
