'Spider-Man: No Way Home' alum Alfred Molina may have found his best role yet.
alum gets caught in a web of secrets when Gamache, described as “a man who sees things that others do not,” investigates a string of murders in the fictional, idyllic village of Three Pines, located in Quebec, Canada.premiere on December 2, we called up Molina to crack the case of why he thinks so highly of Gamache, what’s left for him to accomplish, and how he’d be more than happy forWhat was it that initially drew you toI wasn't aware of the books.
But I fell in love with the books. I think what mainly drew me was the complexity of the character, how multi-layered he was, and how very different he was from a lot of detectives that we see on TV. He certainly has a past—and a rather tragic one—but he's not the kind of detective that's walking around with a cloud over his head and fighting some terrible demon. He's charming, he's an intellectual, he reads poetry, he's a Cambridge graduate—all the things that I'm not.
Do you find there to be any extra challenge when bringing a popular literary character to life, as opposed to an entirely new creation? Or is it all beneficial in the fact that you have this existing information? Adapting a book to a screen story, by definition, is reductive; you have to reduce the book down to certain key elements. The wonderful thing about reading one of Louise Penny's novels is that you can take as much time as you want with it. And you don't quite have that luxury of time with a TV show, so there is a process that has to be gone through.
