Jude Law’s beachside emergence
The Young Pope was a wildly successful show, and now it is back in the hands of the same director, Paolo Sorrentino. The series stars John Malkovich as the new pontiff, and Jude Law plays his predecessor. However, the title of the second season has some fans confused. The show takes place during the award season, and will be shown on HBO on January 13 and 14 at 9 p.m.
A new teaser for The New Pope reveals that Jude Law is co-starring in season two. While the role is still unspecified, it is speculated that his character will be a series regular, rather than a quick turnover cameo. If anything, it’s likely that Jude Law’s role will play a pivotal role in Malkovich’s character’s rise to the papacy.
Lenny’s doubts about God
In “The New Pope,” we see a boy named Lenny’s relationship with God. Lenny was once a conduit of God for Billy’s mom, but he has doubts about God’s existence. After seeing the world through the eyes of his parents, he is unsure of God’s plan for him. Lenny’s doubts about God are also the source of his anger at his parents, which are preventing him from seeing God.
While Lenny’s doubts about faith aren’t the only reason to avoid the papacy, the show’s themes are timeless and universal. “The New Pope” is a comedy that explores religion and spirituality through surreal characters. It’s a surreal treatise on faith, loneliness, and the power of love. It was delivered with the typical Sorrentino mix of high-brow philosophical ideas and low-brow humor. In its most bizarre episode, Lenny is caught falling on a rock in St. Peter’s Square. The episode ends with a musical montage.
Lenny’s meeting with Sir John Brannox
Lenny meets with Sir John Brannox, who offers him a job as the assistant to the young Pope. However, this meeting proves to be a disaster as Lenny has a seizure in front of him. In the aftermath, he decides to hold a press conference, but makes counselor Sister Mary read his statement for him.
The New Pope follows up where The Young Pope left off. Pope Lenny has a heart attack and is left comatose. Rome must choose a new Pope to lead the Catholic Church. However, some people are trying to influence the new Pope, and the first candidate is notorious for selling off Holy See items for charity and allowing refugees to live there.
Despite Brannox’s recent success in promoting his own teachings, he is still a deeply conservative man and is not popular with the Catholic Church. During his meeting with the cardinals, he preaches the importance of love, family, and truth. In the meantime, Ester makes a connection with a widower named Fabiano and offers him a unique financial solution. However, when he is ignored, the Abbess of St. Therese begins to question whether or not she should believe the newest pope.
Lenny’s speech to Bishop Kurtwell
The speech from Lenny to Bishop Kurtwell in the new pople episode 9 is heartbreaking. The young pope is struggling to keep his faith in God and the Church, as he has lost his parents to an untimely death. But Lenny’s speech to Bishop Kurtwell in the season finale is the most touching moment in the entire series. This is a powerful scene that showcases Jude Law’s acting.
In this eponymous episode, the pope demands that Catholics worldwide dedicate themselves to God, but Lenny admits that his conservative views are the result of his parents’ decision to place him in a Catholic orphanage. However, Lenny’s parents pursue a hedonistic lifestyle. He warns them of this, but they don’t listen and the pope’s speech becomes a hit.
