Well they aired two episodes tonight. Figured the reason they had stills released for both episodes. Though I’m just a little miffed at how these episodes panned out for Keir’s character of Stephen Meyer. It seems both episodes were flashbacks for him and not necessarily linear storytelling. So everything that happened in season one with Cal (Hugh Dancy) were just flashbacks of his, nothing being told in the here-and-now. A little disappointing. I had hoped that Meyer was here to stay and perhaps challenge Cal. At least we’d get Keir every week. Alas no. Anyway I have the screencaps for you. Enjoy.
[446] SCREENCAPS: THE PATH – E2X01 LIMINAL TWILIGHT
I thought I had all there was of Keir from season two of THE PATH, but nope. I was able to find three stills from episode two called Dead Moon, so it looks like Keir will be in two episodes. This one looks like it’s a flashback because he not only has hair but it’s also darker than his usual silver. I’m guessing this is an earlier time at the commune.
In advance of tonight’s season two premiere of THE PATH I have three stills from the show. One is from season one, the other two from tonight’s episode called Liminal Twilight. So far Keir is only in one episode. Won’t know what happens until after the episode, which I’ll try to have the screencaps up tonight. He’s still bald and it doesn’t look good for his character of Dr. Stephen Meyer. Damn!
[001] STILLS: THE PATH – E1X09 A ROOM OF ONE’S OWN
Hulu has announced the premiere date for season two of THE PATH. In this video it says January 25, 2017. Keir of course plays the part of Dr. Stephen Meyer, the founder of the belief system of Meyerism. The following is from Wikipedia on the show’s usage of the “religion”.
Meyerism (/ˈmaɪ.ərɪzəm/ MY-ər-izm), or the Meyerist Movement, is the fictional religion at the basis of the Hulu original TV series The Path.
Meyerism is elaborated in the (fictional) book The Ladder by the cult’s leader, Dr. Steven Meyer.[1][2]
A Vanity Fair analysis of the show’s first episode described Meyerism as “inspired by a grab bag of religious practices and cult beliefs”.[3] The show’s creator, Jessica Goldberg, specifically refutes comparisons to Scientology[1][4][5] although many scenes, doctrines, and elements of the show draw on Scientology, even down to scenes depicting a device resembling an e-meter being used. The show’s name was changed early on in development from The Way due to its closeness to real-life ministry and alleged cult, The Way International. to avoid legal fallout.
Hugh Dancy, who plays the group’s acting leader, gives further detail: “Meyerism was founded by Dr. Steven Meyer in Cusco, Peru, after he saw a vision of a burning ladder at the top of a mountain. When he ascended the ladder, he saw two visions: a catastrophic world after a global disaster, and a beautiful garden.”[6]
Keir attended the Comic Con in November in Birmingham, England where he signed photos and chatted with fans. Only one photo from that event for you. Sorry for the lack of updates, but with THE PATH coming back in January looks like Keir has been busy filming. He is in the first episode of season two to air on 27 January 2017. Keep an eye on this space for further information.
