OHMYGOSSIP — Amber Heard thinks ‘The Stand’s release is “timely”.
The 34-year-old actress stars alongside James Marsden and Whoopi Goldberg in the new TV mini-series based on Stephen King’s novel of the same name, and Amber admits it’s “ironic” that the show is being screened amid the coronavirus pandemic.
She explained: “We stopped filming at the end of March, luckily it was at the end of filming, but still I had to go do reshoots later when things started to open back up again, so it is ironic that we had to stop filming on our show about a global pandemic and a power struggle of good and evil, and a government and society that will shut down after a pandemic … right before one. It’s really interesting timing.”
‘The Stand’ tells the story of a weaponized strain of influenza that almost kills the entire population.
Amber plays the part of Nadine Cross in the TV series, and she’s explained why she was attracted to the role.
Speaking to Sky News, the Hollywood star shared: “Her complexity and the inability to put her into a category or easily define her is exactly what I think makes her compelling and made her the most interesting character for me to read.
“I don’t want to play a character that’s easy to understand or whose motivations are transparent – it’s more interesting to play a character who is functioning like many of us are behind several layers of masks that change, depending on what our situation is and who we are dealing with.
“And Nadine is like that on steroids, the stakes are really high for her and everything’s on the line, so that was a challenge but exactly why I was drawn to her.”
