Widow’s Bay season 1 episode 10: Matthew Rhys’ finale tease

Heading into the Widow’s Bay season 1 finale on Apple TV next week, there is absolutely a lot to anticipate and wonder about. Take, for starters, the enormous moral dilemma that Tom needs to be facing.

Let’s summarize this quickly: He, Wyck, and Patricia have discovered that Ruth, the elderly woman who works at Town Hall, is actually the last living descendant of Richard Warren. Her death, at least in theory, could work in order to ensure that the curse on the island is lifted … provided that their line of thinking is true. What if it doesn’t work? What if Rosemary was wrong about some of the family history on the island? Could Ruth be set up as a diversion for something else? These are all the various things that, at least for now, we are left to think about.

Speaking about the finale to The Hollywood Reporter, Matthew Rhys himself noted that this was extremely challenging material to take on:

“I said to [director Hiro Murai], ‘This is the most dense drama I’ve done in a very long time’ … I’m coming off the back of Beast and Me, and I was like, ‘This feels heavier than that!’ But the drama becomes magnified and far richer as a result of it.”

This is a part of the magic of Widow’s Bay in a way. This is a show with comedic elements and yet, a lot of it is played in a really dramatic fashion. Rhys himself does not have to lean too much into the comedy just because there is so much material to be mined just from some of the humor that can exist in this world.
