What would anyone want a Ratched series? I doubt you could deepen her character, for much the same reasons no one tries to redeem Dolores Umbridge. All there really is to her is sick power fantasies under a pretense of kindness.

You don't have to redeem the character but it's not like making a prestige TV series about characters along those lines is unheard of.

Same reason they make series about serial killers and drug dealers, I suppose.

[feotakahari]

Yeah, but TV serial killers tend to be some kind of tortured antihero. It’s basically The Phantom of the Opera. I don’t think Ratched would work for that.

>>“The great thing about that show is the first four seasons follow Sarah’s origin story,” Murphy said. “How did she become a Hannibal Lecter figure? What happened to her to make her do that? It’s also a feminist tale because it starts in 1947. It really looks at the birth of a lot of things that were happening in our health care system. The last season of that show will be Sarah facing off against the Jack Nicholson character from the movie. It’ll let you understand how she became that person. We haven’t started casting the Nicholson part.”

>>It’ll sort of be Sarah Paulson versus the male villain every year until you get to a worthy adversary. That’s the structure of that show but it has leaps of time forward because I’m interested in looking at health care in the ‘40s, ‘50s, ‘60s and ultimately where it ends up in that last season.”

It's not like she's a real person who would benefit from it or anything.

All characters dont need to be good or redeemed some can just be bad

I know nothing about this character, or her new show, but I'm 99% sure it's going to be about her 'tragic' past, and find reason after reason to excuse or rectify her wrongdoings.

She's a character from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest". She's pretty flat in the book as in she experiences no growth. And she's an asshole. But then, so was Walter White.

[(Anonymous)]

I've read the book and seen the film and always thought there was a level of misogyny to the way she was portrayed. I have no issue with female villains (Kathy Bates in Misery was amazing!) in fact would love more! But, to me there was a level of wanting to hate on her specifically as the woman. Remember, the Jack Nicholson character had raped an underaged girl so not a nice guy. Doesn't mean that he deserves to be treated badly but I got the impression we were meant to be completely rooting for him. I dunno, to me should have been more nuance to both the book and film.
The tv series therefore will be interesting. She can be evil/bad etc fine as long as she's a complex character.

And then McMurphy sexually assaults her, strangling her and ripping her shirt open, exposing her breasts to the ward which removes her power.
