Stephen Lang: ‘No-one understands Terra Nova time paradox’

Stephen Lang

Terra Nova star Stephen Lang has claimed that “no-one” understands the show’s time paradox.

The Fox sci-fi drama follows an expedition of humans as they travel from a future Earth to the late Cretaceous period.

“No-one understands the time paradox on this show,” Lang told Assignment X. “Stephen Hawking doesn’t understand the time paradox on this show and neither did Albert Einstein, [so] of course I don’t.”

The actor, who plays Commander Taylor, claimed that it is not “absolutely crucial” to understand the paradox.

“I believe that the time paradox will be addressed over a period of time in this [show],” he ventured. “I think it has to be and one would want it to be.”

However, he added: “I’m not sure that it will ever be resolved or even successfully addressed.”

Terra Nova continues on Monday at 8/7c on Fox. The show airs on Mondays at 8pm on Sky1 in the UK.
