'Narcos' season 2 premiere: Pablo Escobar a 'changed' man

Narcos Netflix

"Narcos" season 2 is still a year away but this hasn't stopped fans from speculating what may or may not be featured on the show. Actor Wagner Moura, who plays drug lord Pablo Escobar himself, took to Reddit to answer several fan questions and revealed a few details regarding the show's character and what may occur in season 2.

"I really enjoyed doing the last scenes in La Catedral during the final episodes (9 and 10)," the actor explained. "In those episodes it was a different Pablo, he had changed and that aims to what we are doing in the second season."

The exact meaning of his statement has yet to be deciphered but fans have taken it as a sign that the Pablo Escobar in season 2 will be harsher, colder and a more calculative murderer compared to the simple drug leader seen throughout the majority of season 1.

Season 2 is in fact going to focus on Escobar's famous breakout from prison. The real historical events showcase it was a violent event where Escobar and his men used guns in order to take control of the facility and eventually get himself out of confinement. This level of violence may become a normal day at the office for season 2's Escobar.

Moura also stated that he has not yet lost weight. As stated in Vine Report, the role has required Moura to maintain a heavier weight than normal due to the fact that Escobar in real life was overweight, a fact Moura points out.

""About my weight," the actor stated. "Unfortunately I can't lose it, when Pablo died he was pretty fat so I guess I will just keep on eating delicious Colombian food!"

In the Q&A, Moura also mentioned Escobar's death, which happens not too long after his prison breakout. At this point, it is still unclear if Escobar will be killed off in season 2, officially ending the series, or if it will be delayed a little further for one more season.

"Narcos" season 2 premieres in 2016.
