In an interview with TVGuide showrunner Pete Nowalk dished about the big reveal lined up for the finale of season 2 of How to Get Away With Murder: who killed Annalise (Viola Davis)?

Interestingly enough, Nowalk revealed that he didn't have a shooter in mind when they conceptualised the storyline. But eventually when they did narrow down on a culprit, the character they chose was not a surprise to him.

"We kind of decided at the last minute. We kept adding to it. Some of that is because it's very right now and it's so much more interesting than what we could've come up with then. We had the target in sight, but we added a lot more to it," he said. "I think I was more surprised about the why, not the who. I think most people will be too. You'll definitely see the why."

The reveal is not going to straightforward, Nowalk revealed, there are going to be plenty twists and turns along the way, so fans should buckle up.

The shooter, of course, is not necessarily the same one who kills Sinclair. "I can't say one way or the other, but I will say that there are a lot of twists and turns in the way the episode unfolds," Nowalk says. "It's a very specifically designed roller coaster. We try to pace out things so that the shocks and the events are distributed over time and not all at once. I really think all six acts are equally exciting and equally high stakes. It feels different from how we did it last year. It feels like a completely original structure for us."

The latest episode, titled 'What Did We Do?,' aired on ABC on Nov. 19.
