'The 100' Season 7 Teaser Trailer: Here's a breakdown of some hidden details you may have missed
Well, it's finally here. The first teaser trailer for the final season of 'The 100' was quietly released by The CW and boy, oh, boy, it may very well be worth the wait. The teaser may just be 20 seconds long, but for those with really eager eyes, it packed in a lot of details.
However, there is also a longer 30-second promo that was aired, which brings in a few more details — of which one particular dialogue may be crucial to keep in mind. Without further ado, let's discuss.
The 20-second promo which can be viewed here begins with a shot of the anomaly and what looks like one or maybe more people huddled in front of it. In a voiceover, Clarke Griffin (Eliza Taylor) is heard saying, "I used to think fighting's what we do, now I worry that fighting's what we are." We also see glimpses of the people of Sanctum and perhaps the Children of Gabriel in what looks like it could be a violent altercation, and a shot of black suit-clad men with very futuristic-looking helmets, even by the standards of 'The 100'.
More importantly, the shot that follows shows Octavia Blake (Marie Avgeropoulos) lying on what looks like an observation bed in a very Mount Weather-esque room as two people look on. We also see a shot of Clarke hitting Russell Lightbourne (J.R. Bourne) — this might most likely be Clarke finally processing the loss of her mother, Abigail Griffin (Paige Turco), who was killed by Russell in the previous season.
At about six seconds into the trailer, in a blink-and-you-miss-it shot, we also see a non-human figure with a deformed head, skin that almost looks like it was made of wood and skeleton-like hands. Moreover, we see more than one person screaming in pain as their skin burns, which instantly reminds us of the radiation fog from the first season.
There is also a shot of Bellamy Blake (Bob Morley) crying. This is most likely the scene following where Octavia was stabbed by Hope Diyoza (Shelby Flannery) and was taken by the anomaly. After all, Bellamy's most popular line (besides "the head and the heart") is "my sister, my responsibility".
In the longer teaser trailer, we see additional shots of Raven Reyes (Lindsey Morgan) talking to John Murphy (Richard Harmon) and Emori (Luisa D'Oliveira). We also see a shot of a body being dragged away and another shot of a very much alive Charmaine Diyoza (Ivana Miličević).
More importantly, we see a man telling someone — presumably Clarke, although it could even be Octavia — that they are the "key to winning the last war mankind will rage". And was it just us or did the woman taking off the futuristic-looking helmet in the longer teaser trailer look a lot like Echo (Tasya Teles)?
Thankfully, we will be getting a longer trailer sometime later in the week from which we will undoubtedly get more details. For now, we cannot wait for Season 7 of 'The 100' to premiere.
