Speaking of holiday gifts, fans also want to know who might be Mel's biological father, and yes, you will get an answer. While Smith surmises that fans have their own suspicions and theories for who it could be, “there will be some surprise when they find out, but there will also be a lot of emotion around it.”

Check back here next Thursday as we break down all the developments with Smith and look ahead to season six.

Faraway Downs (Hulu): Nicole Kidman reunites with Baz Luhrmann for this sweeping series centering on an English aristocrat, Lady Sarah Ashley (Kidman), who travels halfway across the world to confront her wayward husband and sell an unusual asset: a million-acre cattle ranch in the Australian Outback called Faraway Downs. After the death of her husband, a ruthless Australian cattle baron, King Carney (Bryan Brown), plots to take her land, so Lady Ashley reluctantly joins forces with a rough-hewn cattle drover (Hugh Jackman) to protect her ranch. It's all explored through the eyes of young Nullah (Brandon Walters), a biracial Indigenous Australian child caught up in the government's draconian racial policy now referred to as the Stolen Generations. Together the trio experiences four life-altering years, a love affair between Lady Ashley and the drover, and the unavoidable impact of World War II on Northern Australia.
