“Do you wish to be saved?” He’s crying, but he’s laughing.
Perhaps the most memorable scene of the series finale is when Cullen, having initially decided to become a colonel in the 4th Cavalry, goes back into the confessional. Yahoo TV spoke separately to Mount and showrunner John Wirth about the series finale’s most pivotal scene - Cullen in the confessional, a callback to the pilot - and, in the case of Wirth, about whether the writers ever thought about killing Bohannon (yes) and the fates of some of our other favorite characters (Eva literally rode off into the sunset!). “All I knew is when I was standing on the bow of that ship, I wanted to close my eyes and feel at peace with the sun in my face.” “Allowing him to leave his battle behind, setting him free, opening up a new chapter that allows the audience’s imagination to work rather than closing it down,” Mount says.
Cullen ultimately decided to board a ship for passage to China to reunite with Mei. Warning: This interview contains spoilers for the series finale of Hell on Wheels, “Done.”Īfter five seasons, AMC’s Hell on Wheels came down to one final question: Would Cullen Bohannon (Anson Mount) continue to be a railroad man, or is he still a soldier without a war, who’d become President Grant’s Under Secretary of the Western Territories for the United States Army in charge of protecting the railroad from all threats? The answer, in the end: he’s neither. Anson Mount as Cullen Bohannon (Michelle Faye/AMC)
