Everyone in the RCU knows Zane as either a poet or a filmmaker. No one has ever recognized him as both. Which leads me to think Tom Zane is actually a completely different person between Alan Wake 1 and 2 which could explain his drastic personality change and the recasting. Maybe the Dark Place split his personality somehow and changed reality so that some see him as a poet and some as a filmmaker? Or maybe none of the iterations of Zane we've seen are actually real and we have yet to see his true form. Man, typing this out has made me realize that this guy is just one big mystery box.
I think Tom the filmmaker is just another attempt for him to get the hell out of the Dark Place. Rewriting his life. I’ve seen a theory that even Alan could be another attempt on that. As in ALAN IS TOM. lol It would make sense, since many of the characters recognize Alan as Tom. Odin, Tor, Ahti, etc.
Cynthia describes the very moment she starts getting confuse about Tom being a Poet or a Filmmaker. She knew he was a poet, yet she started seeing film equipament in the basement, as if someone was rewriting reality.
