Talking about working with the iconic Viola Davis, Tom Blyth said, “I remember Viola and Francis describing Dr Gaul as like a Willy Wonka kind of, a Chocolate Factory-type villain. She's someone who's so interested in pain and torture and all these kinds of horrible things. But she does it with delight.”

 

Further adding on to what Viola brought to the character, the actor said, “What Viola has brought to it is this kind of constant playfulness and experimenting. The way she works, she's always trying something and then if that doesn't work, she tries something else. It just feels like she's got this big tool kit that she's just pulling things out of. As an actor playing with her, you're just kind of like dodging what she throws and throwing things back and vice versa. It just feels so rich at all times. She's just, she's great.”
