Lee Pace Teases Brother Day’s The Big Lebowski Performance
Fans of Apple TV+ series Foundation are in for a surprise with the upcoming season 3, according to actor Lee Pace, who plays Brother Day. This season’s version of Brother Day will be drastically different from what viewers have seen before. In a recent interview, Pace hinted that fans will be taken aback by the changes to the character.
Brother Day, a clone of Cleon I, the Empire’s original leader, is known for ruling the galaxy with an iron fist. However, in season 3, viewers will see a new side of Day. Unlike his predecessors, this version of Brother Day has no interest in maintaining the Empire’s dominance. Instead, he is focused on enjoying life’s simple pleasures and has an emotional detachment from his position.
In a playful reference, Pace compared Brother Day’s relaxed attitude and flamboyant wardrobe this season to The Dude from the cult classic movie The Big Lebowski. This season, Day is portrayed as carefree and indifferent, in stark contrast to his previous autocratic persona.
Pace explained that this new version of Brother Day is unburdened by the responsibilities of ruling the galaxy. Despite the looming downfall of the Empire, Day remains unconcerned and is content with leading a relaxed, hedonistic lifestyle. Pace found the opportunity to explore this facet of the character both fun and intriguing.
Foundation’s highly-anticipated third season is set to premiere on July 11 on Apple TV+. Before the premiere, fans can check out reviews of the season’s first five episodes and explore in-depth guides to the cast, plot, and future of the sci-fi series. This new season promises to deliver unexpected twists and turns that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
