In an unexpected turn of events, it has been revealed that the original ending for the Netflix thriller Black Doves was completely scrapped after it was already filmed. Warning: This article contains spoilers for those who have not yet watched the show.
The fast-paced eight-part series follows Helen, played by Keira Knightley, a spy on a mission to avenge the brutal murder of her MI5 agent lover, Jason. She is joined by her best friend and hitman, Sam, as she defies the orders of her boss, Reed, in her quest for vengeance.
As Helen delves deeper into the mystery surrounding Jason's death, she discovers that it is connected to the murder of the Chinese ambassador, Chen. However, what was originally planned as the revelation of the killer turned out to be too confusing for viewers.
According to Black Doves creator, Joe Barton, the original culprit was supposed to be MI5 agent Perryman, who was under the orders of Reed to carry out the murder of Chen after being manipulated by Trent Clark. However, Joe ultimately decided to change the identity of the murderer and re-shoot the scenes because it was becoming too complex.
"We just took that one extra layer out because it was a lot," Joe explained.
The show features a star-studded cast, including Ben, and covers themes of government corruption, betrayal, and espionage.
As the clock ticks down and Sam and another assassin, Williams, are held hostage by the notorious London crime family, The Clarks, Helen must act quickly. She manages to capture the family's youngest son, Trent, and uses him to make contact with his elusive mother, Alex.
The two parties meet at a warehouse to exchange Trent and a USB stick containing incriminating footage of Ambassador Chen's murder for the release of Sam and Williams. The shocking footage reveals that Trent accidentally killed Chen during an argument over his girlfriend, Kai-Ming, who had been supplied with drugs by The Clarks.
But even after getting what she wants, Helen is still driven by her desire for revenge against Jason's killer. In a dramatic twist, it is revealed that Trent was behind the murder of Jason and two other individuals who were trying to expose the existence of the footage.
As a shootout ensues, Helen and Sam take down Alex and the rest of The Clarks' henchmen before Sam ultimately kills Trent to protect Helen from future repercussions.
In the end, Helen hands over the USB to a CIA agent who had been framed by the Chinese government as the murderer of Ambassador Chen. The evidence clears his name and prevents the world from descending into a potential war.
