Nell Tiger Free stunned audiences with her performance as the troubled and terrifying Leanne Grayson in the Apple+ series Servant. Now, she’s showing a different side of herself in the legacy prequel The First Omen, where she stars as Margaret, a young novitiate who travels to Rome to take her vows. While still placed in a religious context, Free is able to access a different side of herself as a performer as she embodies a character who goes through A Lot (to put it lightly) to uncover the horrific conspiracy unfolding within the Catholic Church.
In honor of the film’s release, we spoke with Nell Tiger Free about her love of horror, getting to go feral, and the terrors of religious belief.
The First Omen is out now in theaters.
