We chat with CrispinGlover about 'Pickman's Model,' part of Guillermo del Toro's CabinetofCuriosities anthology on netflix, and the ambiguity behind his character. The star also shares his thoughts the future of AmericanGods and much more:
Crispin Glover is back with another off-kilter character in Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities. Starring in the episode "Pickman's Model," the actor stars as the titular artist with a dark past whose art contains a terrifying secret within, of which Ben Barnes' Will Thurber finds himself attracted to.
Screen Rant: I'm very excited to talk about “Pickman’s Model” and Cabinet of Curiosities, it's such a wonderful anthology collection of stories. I know a lot of it is Guillermo del Toro-driven, but it's also driven by these wonderful directors that he's gotten. How did it come about for you to be a part of this project?
It really felt like there was a sense of ambiguity with your character, more than in the past when you've played these sinister type characters. I feel that works very well for Pickman, and his relationship with Ben's character. It certainly made me want to go back and check out the source material just to compare. Were you a fan of Lovecraft prior to coming on to this special?
Crispin Glover: I asked about it, and I looked at, I don't think I saw all of the paintings that were to be by Pickman. But I think there were at least three different artists that painted the painting, and there was one selection, and I don't think it's in the final cut. Because when I did ADR for it, I got to see [some of] the film, this episode. I wanted very much to see if there was some way to go see a screening, but it didn't happen before, I still want to see it.
Crispin Glover: It was good, because we had a pretty easy communication. It was evident that there were different kinds of choices that could be made, it wasn't overly apparent as to what it should be. So, we would talk about things here and there, maybe not so much before, but during rehearsal, and as we were shooting, and then, of course, Keith was there as well.
