On the villain front, Marco is spoken of more than he's actually seen. There's also an air of suspense in her story since it's difficult to discern which of her former Belter acquaintances is trustworthy, or about to betray her.
The expanse season 5 episode 9 full#
Tipper is excellent at changing her character's demeanor when she's in full "Belter mode," which consists of a thicker accent and a more formidable posture whenever she's conversing with old comrades. There's still a lot to learn about Naomi's journey that's not revealed in the Season 5 premiere, but the time we do spend with her is enjoyable, especially when she's visiting a local Belter bar asking for information concerning Filip. Off planet, Naomi (Dominique Tipper) continues her search for her estranged son, Filip (Jasai Chase Owens), in the hopes of rescuing him from his unstable father, Marco Inaros (Keon Alexander).
In a particularly poignant scene involving Chatham's Amos and veteran actor Frankie Faison's Charles - as the two reminisce about old times in Baltimore - Amos quotes a friend from his childhood: "float to the top or sink to the bottom, everything else in the middle is the churn." It's a concise statement packed with a lot of meaning that told me more about why Amos is such a capable survivor, even if he struggles in expressing what's going on under the surface. Watch an exclusive clip from The Expanse Season 5 premiere below: Don't worry, there doesn't seem to be any indication that Amos is going to suddenly turn into a big softy, but it is nice to know what his character is thinking from time to time. While Chatham has always played Amos as a shoot first, ask questions later tough-nosed kind of guy, the actor does some impressive work here to imbue his character with a bit of vulnerability. After spending so much time on Illus' desolate surface in Season 4, it's a welcome change of scenery to see a futuristic sprawling city come to life. One of my favorite threads throughout the premiere is Amos' (Wes Chatham) trip to his hometown of Baltimore. This storytelling approach allows for some impactful character building since we get to learn more about Amos, Holden, Naomi, Alex, and Bobbie outside of their usual confines inside the Roci. The first really unique and unexpected aspect about Season 5 (unless you've already read "Nemesis Games"), is that every crew member of the Rocinante is on their own individual journey in different parts of the solar system.
