British actor Jessica Gunning explained how she tackled playing the stalker Martha in 'Baby Reindeer' and why she didn't ask creator Richard Gadd about her real-life counterpart.
British actor Jessica Gunning said she usually has a 'what will be, will be' attitude toward auditions. That, however, was not the case when she was trying out to play Martha in Netflix's surprise hit series 'Baby Reindeer.' 'I really kind of fought for it,' she said in a video interview this week.
Even when I think about it, I just feel really, really emotional because it's the crux of the whole story really in a way. Both of us were crying. It was a really nice way to say goodbye to it and goodbye to the show. What was the experience of filming the moment where Martha attacks Donny's girlfriend Teri, played by Nava Mau? They were really intense days and I was really concerned, obviously, that Nava always felt safe and protected.
