Charlie Hunnam underwent a dramatic transformation for Netflix’s Monster: The Ed Gein Story, premiering October 3, 2025, playing the 1950s serial killer whose acts inspired Psycho and Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Hunnam lost nearly 30 pounds for a malnourished look, reflecting Gein’s lithe frame, and focused on subtle physicality to avoid confident energy.
He adopted a high-pitched voice to depict Gein’s toxic bond with his mother, who wanted a daughter.
The eight-episode series, part of Ryan Murphy’s anthology, follows Jeffrey Dahmer and Menendez brothers’ stories, with a fourth on Lizzie Borden confirmed.
Hunnam’s unrecognizable appearance shocked fans, highlighting his commitment to the chilling role.
