A Killing Eve spin-off?

Thriller spin-off may centre around the early life of Carolyn, played by Fiona Shaw.

A spin-off of Killing Eve to potentially centre around the early life of Carolyn, presently played by Fiona Shaw.

The original series wraps after 3 seasons, but Deadline reports a possible spin-off is under consideration, but yet to be greenlit.

Carolyn, played by Shaw, begins the original show as the ruthless and enigmatic head of MI6’s Russia desk and plays a major role in all four seasons of the cat-and-mouse drama. The spin-off will focus on her earlier life, likely looking into her time as young spook in the former Soviet Union.

Shaw recently told TV Tonight, not even Carolyn can be trusted in this complex tale.

“You can’t trust her. But she also can’t trust Eve or Konstantin (Kim Bodnia). She couldn’t trust Kenny (Sean Delaney). Everybody betrays everybody all the time,” she warned.

“People are friendly when they share information, but they also will use that information to sabotage the other person if it’s for the greater good.

“Carolyn is in charge so people have to trust what she says but she may have further information, that’s what makes her very powerful.

“The audience doesn’t know if she has the ultimate information….”

A two-episode finale of Killing Eve, which screens internationally next week, will play out in Australia over two weeks on ABC.

  1. Hmmm…doubt this will work.
    Fiona Shaw is brilliant here as Carolyn but the characters of Villanelle and Eve are the real drawcards.
    Jodi Comer especially is fascinating as Villanelle and absolutely “steals the show”, every single scene she’s in.

  2. Am really loving the backstory of The Twelve. And of Carolyn’s part she plays in the formation of them, especially knowing about her father. It would be great to see more.
    Fiona Shaw is a brilliant actress.

    1. Really. A story about Carolyn’s father who died after 2 minutes on screens and 4 stoned 20 somethings who called themselves The Twelve, then started killing everyone including themselves for no reason? Who exist purely to introduce an actress as Young Carolyn for a spin off that nobody wants to see?
