Eddie Redmayne opens up about playing a real-life killer in Netflix's The Good Nurse
casts fellow Oscar winner Jessica Chastain as a nurse, Amy Loughren, who discovers one of her colleagues may be behind a series of suspicious patient deaths on their ward., Redmayne spoke about the benefits of playing a real person like Charles Cullen – who has confessed to killing as many as 40 patients and is suspected in the deaths of many more.
"What I love about playing real people is you have a place to start. You have the title for your essay. You know where you are and the certain technical things that you have, and you know where to go to start doing your research or prep. When you're playing non-real people, you have to kind of create that yourself," he told us.
"Our great resource on this was the real Amy Loughren, the character Jessica [Chastain] plays. The most insight [into Charlie] was from her about his kindness, about his gentleness and particularly his humour, his self-deprecating humour. The way that he would endear people to him was through vulnerability. It'd be like 'my life is a mess', and always talking about how his home life is complete chaos.
"And of course, in some ways, probably that was whether it was a conscious device or a subconscious, it was a way of getting close to people."
