About this episode
Zazie Beetz, Gillian Jacobs & Simon Racioppa
In the conclusion of this two‑part Rewind on Invincible, Tony turns the spotlight toward the women who help define the show’s emotional and moral landscape — Zazie Beetz (Amber Bennett) and Gillian Jacobs (Atom Eve) — along with a bonus conversation with Executive Producer Simon Racioppa on shaping Season Two.
Where Part One explored fathers, sons, and the burden of legacy, this episode dives into identity, agency, and the cost of choosing your own path in a world where power can both save and destroy.
- Zazie Beetz breaks down her approach to Amber, a character who refuses to be overshadowed by the chaos of superhero life.
- Gillian Jacobs reflects on Atom Eve, one of the show’s most complex heroes.
- Executive Producer Simon Racioppa joins Tony To discuss: The creative philosophy guiding Season Two
