Paradise’s Crescendo: A High-Stakes Finale Approaches

Sterling K. Brown is Ready for the Big Reveal

With the drama of "Paradise" reaching fever pitch, episode seven of season one leaves fans on the edge. Sterling K. Brown, portraying Xavier Collins, is juggling crises bigger than Paradise itself. The stakes are high—his family, the community’s citizens, and outsiders are all in danger. Samantha "Sinatra" Redmond (played by Julianne Nicholson) isn’t making life easy. She demands Xavier unmask the assassin who took the life of President Cal Bradford (James Marsden) and bring sanity back to their underground refuge. Failure spells permanent separation from his daughter and wife.

In a revealing chat with Entertainment Weekly, Brown peels back the curtain on the looming season finale. Expect a showdown with Bradford’s killer unveiled before those final credits roll. And yes, Xavier’s journey is far from over. Season two promises to transport him beyond Paradise’s confines to find out what’s left of civilization. Brown hints at the new frontier awaiting, urging fans to buckle up for the wild ride ahead.

Endgame and New Beginnings for "Paradise"

Brown assures fans that Xavier dodges doom in the finale. Moreover, he vows that lingering mysteries, especially what happened to his wife Teri on the surface, will remain a focal point next season. Creator Dan Fogelman has laid out a three-season roadmap. All primary queries from the start will eventually be addressed—President Bradford’s death among them.

As the killer’s identity inches closer to daylight, Sinatra’s word that the murderer originates outside their 25,000-strong community spins its own tale. This fresh twist suggests flashback appearances were more than mere backdrop. Xavier, safe for now, marches toward season two with plenty of plot to mine.
