Killing Eve series four trailer teases epic Villanelle and Eve confrontation
Killing Eve’s fourth and final series has teased an epic confrontation between Villanelle and Eve.
The trailer for the highly-anticipated new series sees Eve, played by Sandra Oh, and her former lover Villanelle, played by Jodie Comer, come face to face.
Eve is roped back into the “same old game of chess” by Fiona Shaw’s character, Carolyn, to track down the twelve, after the death of her son.
The tense confrontation between Eve and Villanelle sees the duo trying to convince each other that they’ve changed after the Russian spy has visited a priest and it seems been baptised and washed away her sins.
Villanelle, dressed in all white with a cross around her neck, kneels before Eve, who asks: “What are you doing?”
Villanelle admits: “I’m trying to show you I’ve changed.”
She appears in all white, looking up at Eve. Yet, the former MI6 agent states: “If you’d really changed you wouldn’t have come here.”
Villanelle responds: “If you’d really changed you wouldn’t have led me here.”
The pair keep going round in circles, but the final series hints that their tumultuous relationship might be coming to a fatal end.
The lovers turned enemies sit next to each other on the sofa and Eve asks Villanelle about an old fable, as a metaphor for their own relationship.
She says: “Do you know that fable about the scorpion and the frog?”
In true Villanelle seductive fashion she asks: “They hook up?”
Before, Eve corrects her that “they both die” as “the scorpion can’t change its nature.”
While the stinging comment alludes to Villanelle’s vicious past as an assassin she responds: “Maybe you are the scorpion.”
Either way, the finality of the series means that anything is on the cards for this explosive relationship.
Jodie Comer has already said that while she will be sad to leave the show, it feels like the right time to leave the show it on a “good note.”
Killing Eve’s executive producer, Sally Woodward Gentle, previously teased that Eve and Villanelle are “thrown into season four trying to figure out what they mean to each other and what their lives now stand for.”
She added: “While Carolyn has shot a man in cold blood, she is trying to find out who is responsible for the hit on her son”.
Before she concluded that this series “is going to be a lot more personal and passionate than the seasons before.”
Series 4 of Killing Eve begins on February 27 and will be released on BBC One and BBC iPlayer
