Charlie Hunnam and ‘Monster’ Cast Address ‘Ed Gein’ Criticism and the Dark Appeal of True Crime
The Netflix anthology's co-creator Ian Brennan refutes that the series glamorizes the murders: "I don't think this season is sensational at all. I think it's sensationally good," he told THR.
Stepping into the role of Ed Gein isn’t an easy task, but Charlie Hunnam was up for the challenge. In the Netflix series Monster: The Ed Gein Story, the actor had to shed his trademark charisma and physicality to embody the reclusive, deeply disturbed killer whose real-life crimes inspired some of horror’s most infamous characters.
Charlie Hunnam is sharing what went through his head when he agreed to play serial killer Ed Gein — and how he "fell into a full panic" after realizing the decision he made.
Charlie Hunnam was initially worried that his new role in 'Monster: The Ed Gein Story' was 'a horrible mistake.'
Focusing on the figure who inspired 'Psycho,' 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' and more, the latest installment in the anthology series also features Laurie Metcalf and Tom Hollander.
FX's gritty biker drama was a massive hit among viewers and critics, yet the Emmys never truly appreciated it.
Serial killer Ed Gein's crimes inspired horror classics like "Pyscho" and "Texas Chain Saw Massacre." He's now the subject of Netflix's "Monster" series.
