This week marked the beginning of outdoor filming for the show's second season, but on Friday production is scheduled to take a much darker turn. Hawes teased that they will beginning underground filming, which is not easy work, and joked about his coping skills.
Tomorrow I start the first of three days filming underground. Which is always a b****. I shall be drinking. That is all. — James Hawes (@JamesEHawes) September 25, 2014
Penny Dreadful returns to Showtime for its second, longer season in 2015.
