In an interview with Gold Derby, Charlie discussed his role in ‘Monster: The Ed Gein Story,’ including the spontaneous way he was cast. He explained that what truly struck him about Ryan Murphy’s approach was the focus on exploring why Ed Gein did what he did, rather than just what he did. Ultimately, Charlie noted, the show poses a complex question: Is the monster truly Ed Gein, or was Hitchcock also the monster, who took inspiration from this boy who was abused and mentally ill and sensationalized his story or are we the audience now the monster for participating in telling the story of Hitchcock and Ed Gein?
Charlie went on to share his perspective on awards, comparing them to birthday gifts—something “nice to receive” but maybe “bad form to covet.” He emphasized his gratitude for working with talented people who help make him better and challenge him. He wrapped up the topic by saying that his real focus is doing better quality work and constantly growing as a craftsperson, viewing any potential award as simply a recognition that he is “on the right path.”
