Modern Family's co-creator Christopher Lloyd has revealed there will be a "significant" death in the upcoming tenth series.

　　《摩登家庭》的联合制片人克里斯托弗·洛伊德透露，在即将上映的第十季中，将会有一个“重大”的死亡事件发生。

　　Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Christopher said the upcoming series will deal with "bigger life events" than in previous, which have focused on the goofy fun of family life.

　　克里斯托弗·洛伊德在接受《娱乐周刊》采访时表示，即将上映的剧集相比于之前将会讲述更多的“生活大事件”，而之前主要讲述的是家庭生活中的一些傻傻的趣事。

　　He said: "We do deal with a death, which is certainly a topic that families have to deal with, and it's not easy to do because that's a heavy subject.

　　他说:“我们确实要处理死亡问题，这当然是一个家庭必须面对的话题，这并不容易，因为这是一个沉重的话题。”

　　"But at the same time, it would seem unusual for a family not to go through it."

　　“但同时，一个家庭不经历这样的事情似乎也不太正常。”

　　He has not given away any clues on who it will be who dies, or whether it will be a main family member, but he did reveal the character would be "significant" and that the death will have "repercussions across several episodes."

　　他没有透露是谁会死，也没有透露这个角色是否是主要的家庭成员的任何线索，但他表示这个角色将是“重要的”，而且这个死亡会“影响到许多集。

　　But the most likely character would probably be the Pritchett patriarch, Jay, as he is ailing compared to his sprightly children and their significant others.

　　但是最有可能的角色应该是普里奇特的族长杰伊，因为与他活泼的孩子和一些重要的人的身体状况相比，他身体欠佳。

　　"I think there's a decent chance we'll see it happen. I hope there is. From our standpoint creatively we've gotten excited writing this season and changing the lives of the characters — some in a significant way — and it's made us think, 'Wow, there's a lot to explore in the lives of these characters'."

　　“我认为我们很有可能看到它的发生。我希望有。从创造性的角度来看，这一季我们写得很激动，改变了角色们的生活——以一些重要的方式——这让我们想，‘哇，关于这些角色的生活还有很多值得探索的地方’。
