When EW asked the cast about it, Aiden (number 5) said, “I think it depends on the siblings. Who’s going to end up wrestling with this reality versus accept it and try to cut out a semblance of a normal life?” It is hard to live without the thing that you’ve lived your whole life with. These siblings have lived with their powers their whole lives.

So, naturally, it would be hard for some characters, such as Klaus and Lila. Arya, who plays Lila in the show, shares her views about the situation. She says that her character’s confidence depends upon her powers to mimic everyone’s powers. She shares her curiosity about seeing her character without those powers.

However, Netflix hasn’t officially announced season 4 of the show. However, if there is another season, the dynamics of the powerless siblings would be exciting to explore. David shares his imagination and says he hopes his character Diego and Luther end up working at a theme park. While Adian adds to the fun and says, “Some of us should open a bakery. A couple of us running a shop? Could be fun!”
