Charlie Hunnam tells PEOPLE how he embodied Ed Gein in the new season of Netflix's 'Monster.' He explains that he tried to understand the murderer better by learning about his trauma and changing his own physical appearance.

Charlie Hunnam graces the cover of Variety and talks resurrecting an infamous serial killer for Ryan Murphy's 'Monster' Season 3.

British actor Charlie Hunnam stars as the titular Ed Gein, a massive shift for a performer best known as the protagonist Jax Teller in the drama series “Sons of Anarchy.” Here, Hunnam shares scenes with Laurie Metcalf as Gein’s mother, an overbearing and religious woman eerily similar to the backstory given to Mrs. Bates in “Psycho.”
