We chat with Samantha Morton (samthesparrow) about finding her inner Catherine Medici in the new STARZ original series TheSerpentQueen, a historical epic with bite:
Catherine de Medici earned the title The Serpent Queen for several reasons: her use of poison, her monarchical scheming, and her ability to hold together the French court all made her a notorious historical figure. Catherine, played by Samantha Morton in the upcoming Starz period drama, enters the French court as an orphan in hopes of bringing in a fortune and producing viable heirs. Naturally, complications arise as the French monarchy is found to be a less than hospitable place to Catherine.
Samantha Morton: I think, first of all, that the first thing that I would have been given was the script. And it was the storyline and just going through her life. I had lots of conversations with Justin [Haythe, creator] and Stacey, the director of the first episode. And then for me, I wanted to go away once I decided, that we all agreed on my interpretation, I was going to play the role.
You also have Liv Hill playing the younger version of Catherine, who is also just phenomenal. So what was that working relationship like with her? How did you guys collaborate together to sort of find that throughline?
