See article: Rise of The Redemption Episode List
On June 28, 2013 Ivar revealed that he had written through Episode 23 already and that he had decided to make atleast 2 Seasons, each consisting of 10 episodes.
The Series is going through a difficult production and shall remain in there for a while due to school and real life from the director but he will continue the show as planned. Some storylines, like the games, will have borrow influence and basis from other known stories like Man of Steel or The Hunger Games.
Ivar revealed plans of making the Series Finale a movie.
The first episode aired on October 19 2013 as a 'Special Preview' and was met with extremely positive response from the people who watched it. Together they rated a strong 8.3, anticipating the rest of the show.
Episode 9, while almost the finale, was one of the first episode to be completed, ranking an (then) impressive 119 Pictures to tell the story.
All Episode titles of both Seasons were revealed on January 16, 2014
The second Episode entitled "Into Silver Space" aired on Febuary 15, 2014 followed by a short teaser for Episode 3: "The Cyborg" wich is set to air in the same month.
Movie
Rise of The Redemption: The Coldest Day will be released sometime after the Season 2 finale and will serve as a Series Finale.
Development
After the epic finale of the Rise Trilogy Ivar decided to start a "Rise Series" that he announced on June 2, 2013. He created the synopsis the same day and made the titles of the first two episodes.
In the following day he began to write the first 5 episodes and began to come up with more episodes up to 20. At the same time the show still needed a title and Ivar asked the AG players what they thought to be a good name for the show. In the end a top 3 was made:
- Rise of The Redemption
- Rise of The Defenders
- Rise of The Peacekeepers
But in the end Rise of The Redemption was chosen to be the official title for the series. Ivar plans on releasing the first episode this month but is not sure when it will air.
The series will have a "Star Trek/Star Wars/Rise" feel to it to make it stand out and give the audience the sense of great adventure, emotion and sci-fi, with Lego's.
After lots of discussing and planning Ivar-Jedi has made a deal with Maverickjedivalen to be his co-creator of the series.
The main setting, the bridge of the titular ship, was finished on June 30, 2013. Filming began in the following week. Unfortuntaley Ivar's Laptop crashed and production on the series was put on hold unti further notice.
The shows development has been really slow but steady. Ivar tries to give out as much information (but not too much) to the people to keep them hooked but when his laptop crashed he could not resume filming for a while. When he got a new one he could only film scene's he remembered because the new laptop did not include Word yet, in wich Ivar has saved his scripts wich he was able to recover along his other materials. After sometime thought, Ivar found his old scripts and pictures back and development made progress once again.
Episode 1 and 9 have been completely finished so far. Episodes 3-4 and 8 are in production. The others episodes have been written but have not entered filming yet. Episode 1 was completed on October 17, 2013 and aired on October 19, 2013 as a 'Special Preview' for the show and its first season.
Even though the series was met with critical acclaim it can not help but being the most slowly produced Ambush Series to date. Luckily the slowness does not hurt the quality so far.
Production for Episode 2 - Into Deep Space was put on hold for Ivar to focus on preparing and hosting his fourth game: "The Ambush Pirates: The Secrets of The Map"
During hosting of Pirates Ivar gave out some overdue updates of the show, revealing a Picture of Wiz-Man walking through the snow in a different outfit from the Episode 'Wiz Bliz', he also revealed the Premise of Episode 2 'Into Silver Space' and said that Ravi-Idej would get a love interest in the series.
Ivar finished writing Seasons 1 and 2 on January 13, 2014.
The show picked up in Febuary 2014 when it aired Episode 2 - Into Silver Space on Febuary 15, 2014 followed by a Next Time preview for Episode 3 - The Cyborg wich is aired the same month. Episode 4 - Manhunt however was planned for a March release but didn't make the cut since Production and Development was down by Ivar to shoot for Maverick's Game: Maverick Marshalls.
Production slowly picked up again after Marshalls and Ivar revealed his schedule in wich he confirmed the completion of Episodes 8 and 9 and that was filming several episodes at the same time, all the way into Season 2. He also revealed all episodes have surpassed their writing stage except for the last three and the movie.
Season 2 started airing on July 15, 2015. Before the release of Episode 11, the first episode of Season 2 Ivar began a rewatch of Season 1 for audiences to catch up again with the Redemption adventures before diving into Season 2. It was also used as a countdown to the release.
Ivar hopes to release Episode 12 (S2E02) late July and Episode 13 is scheduled for begin August. Episodes 14 and 15 are slated to be released together somewhere in August. Ivar is hoping for a middle August release but is not sure yet.
