Even several of the shipmen were real; eagle- eyed viewers may have seen them as extras tacking and jibing their way through four seasons of Black Sails. When Outlander airs, you’ll be able to spot them by their beards. “They wouldn’t shave,” sighs executive pro- ducer Matthew B. Roberts. “Believe it or not, a lot of people on the ships back then were clean-shaven. But to get their exper- tise, sometimes you make a deal.” And just for giggles, Steele incorporated an Easter egg into the Artemis, the brigantine used by the lovers where Jamie becomes sick as a dog. “If you look, you will find something off the Parisian sets from season 2.” In all, it’s been a time-intensive shoot in this blistering locale. “I understand the fan disappointment, but we just physically couldn’t do it quicker,” admits executive producer Maril Davis, who first brought the Outlander books to showrunner Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica) back in 2009. “There’s no break for us. The show takes a good four or five months just to get up off the ground, so it was essential time. But I feel so bad for them. I hope they won’t go away.” It’s highly unlikely the series will lose any followers, especially given some of their very early reviews via social media. At San Diego Comic-Con in July, 4,000 lucky fans were surprised with an exclusive screening of the premiere episode. After Moore and Gabaldon sat on the dais with the cast for a Q&A prior to the screening, the two of them went into the audience and watched the epi- sode. “I wanted to be in the room just to see the surprise on everybody’s faces and the emotion of getting a treat like that,” he says later. “They cried at the tragedies and gasped at the things they should gasp at.” An epic battle will do that.

Though it’s risky to keep the lov- ers apart for so many episodes, much of the book’s appeal comes from how the couple go on to lead separate lives in two different centuries.

STANDING IN FRONT OF A ROOM FILLED with the Teen Wolf cast and crew, Tyler Posey knows one thing: The bite is a gift…particularly when it’s a bite of cake. It’s March in Los Ange- les, and with only a few days left of filming the sixth and final season, everyone gathers in the Beacon Hills High School library, where they’re greeted by a meticulously decorated cake to celebrate the show’s 100th episode—which will also serve as its series finale. Posey’s expected to give a speech, but much like Scott all those years ago when he walked into the woods with nothing but an inhaler, Posey is not prepared for what comes next. “Awww, s---,” he says, already getting emotional. Looking around the room at the peo- ple he calls “family,” he simply says, “This has been the greatest thing ever.” And for many Teen Wolf fans, the feeling’s mutual. Loosely based on the 1985 film of the same name, Teen Wolf, which premiered on MTV in 2011, tells the story of Scott McCall, a young man whose entire world is turned upside down when a werewolf bites him. (Though unlike in the film, Scott pre- fers lacrosse to basketball.) Over six seasons, the show attracted the type of devoted fan base that not only made it MTV’s highest-rated scripted series among teens but also made each of its San Diego Comic-Con panels feel like a rock concert.

England Is Mine

STARRING Jack Lowden, Jessica Brown Findlay, Jodie Comer

DIRECTED BY Mark Gill | RATING NR | LENGTH 1 hr., 34 mins.

REVIEW BY Leah Greenblatt @Leahbats

LESS BIOPIC THAN PROLOGUE, ENGLAND IS Mine aims to tell its own minor-key origin myth for the boy who would become Morrissey— not yet the alt-culture icon forever cemented by the Smiths and his own solo stardom, but a gawky Manchester kid whose given name, Steven, held about as much promise as the grim industrial city he came from. England doesn’t stint in its portrait of the artist as an insufferable young man: As played by Jack Lowden (the towheaded fighter pilot from Dunkirk, almost unrecognizable in a chestnut ’70s shag) he’s a surly, reflexively snobbish outcast in a New York Dolls T-shirt, blasting Bowie and Roxy Music from his bed- room turntable and writing unsolicited takedowns of local bands for British music bible NME. But there is of course a keenly sensitive dreamer lurking beneath all that disdain and corduroy—one that fellow non- conformist Linder (Downton Abbey’s Jessica Brown Findlay, also transformed by reams of oxblood lipstick and a spiky bob) sees and does her best to draw out. First-time director Mark Gill isn’t as sure-handed in his style as other chroniclers of the era like Michael Winterbottom (2002’s kinetic Factory Records docu- SUMMER CRUSH dramedy 24 Hour Party People) or Anton Corbijn (the stark Joy Division mood piece Control). His earnestly arty take—there are a lot of static-object shots and a recurring motif of churning rapids overlaid with Steven’s Deep Thoughts—can’t really begin to capture Harris Dickinson the sublime talent and charisma that make Morrissey’s story so worth knowing in the first place. That may be Makes Waves IS MINE ENGLAND in part because the movie doesn’t have life rights; they were refused by its famously mercurial muse. Without Beach Rats them, England is just the tender, half-told tale of one in : CLEOPATRA ENTERTAINMENT; more rebel still in search of a cause.

TWIN PEAKS AN UNRIVALED REVIVAL As the wildly and wondrously baffling Showtime series draws to a close, Jeff Jensen reflects on how it reinvented the reboot

CREATED IN 1990 FOR BROADCAST TV by oddball auteur David Lynch (Blue Velvet) and producer Mark Frost (Hill Street Blues), Twin Peaks punched up the prime- time-soap format with cinematic panache and spiked it with sophisticated irony and occult weirdness. It was a pop culture phenomenon—a status it couldn’t sustain. Yet the series made an indelible impression, enough TWIN PEAKS to justify a 2017 reboot. As they

THE ALBUM THAT REMINDS ME OF GROWING UP

I would spend summer in a small town in Idaho. Those were the days when you would let cassette tapes just flip over and play. On these long drives [from Palm Desert, Calif.], my folks would always listen to Running on Empty by [1]Jackson Browne—which strangely was recorded on and [was] completely about the road.

THE FIRST ARTIST I WAS OBSESSED WITH AS A KID

This was the type of festival [where] you could bring your own fried chicken and wine and dance in a small-town baseball diamond. It put me in this understanding of Elvis Presley and Sun Records all in one swoop. It was an eye- opener for me. THE FIRST ALBUM I BOUGHT WITH MY OWN MONEY

FALL’S 20 MUST-READ BOOKS

There’s something for everyone: a domestic drama that unfolds in a picture-perfect suburb, a psychological thriller set in 19th-century Ireland, a history of improv comedy, even a heist novel that takes place on the moon. BY ISABELLA BIEDENHARN

LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE Celeste Ng NOVEL

Ng, author of 2014’s Everything I Never Told You, didn’t have to look far for inspiration for her second novel. “The book is set in my hometown, Shaker Heights, Ohio,” she explains. “It’s a 1 place I loved growing up, but as I’ve gotten older and farther away from it, I realized it was not the typical suburb I always thought it was.” Shaker Heights is something of a residential utopia: a racially diverse suburb known for its placid, tree- lined streets and excellent schools. But as Ng’s characters— the Richardson family and their tenants, an artist and her daughter—learn, complicated emotions often roil below the sur- face of even the most progressive, laid-back communities. When a white couple in town tries to adopt a Chinese-American baby, the child’s mother sues for custody, and the ensuing debate pits Shaker Heights’ residents against one another. “I don’t think these are questions that have easy answers,” Ng says. “I wanted to write a book in which there was not a hero and there wasn’t really a villain.” SEPT. 12

Their mom, Leonie, is in and out of their lives as she grieves her dead brother and battles drug addiction.

year in Denver, the production hopes to deliver on its biggest promises (like reinventing the showstopping “Let It Go”) while adding new characters and songs to expand on the story of two sisters chillingly driven apart. “I’m not excited by slavishly replicating a movie on stage, because it won’t challenge any- body,” says Tony-winning director Michael Grandage (Red, Frost/ Nixon). “We’ve got more songs than the movie.
