“Filming is going great. I think you’ll learn in the same way that everybody’s learned in the past. You’ll probably get some teasers, a couple of teasers, and then, the big way you’ll find out what’s going to happen is the show. It’s, obviously, the most secretive thing I’ve ever worked on, but I think the fans — you included — will be very happy with season five,” Gelman shared. He emphasized the careful balance he maintains with fans who are eager for details but also enjoy being surprised. “Most fans are curious, but they also appreciate the element of surprise,” he noted. Gelman acknowledged the difficulty of managing this balance and suggested that it might be some time before more information is revealed.
