The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Matt Smith (Doctor Who, The Crown) will be playing infamous criminal and cult leader Charles Manson in director Mary Harron’s (American Psycho) upcoming feature, Charlie Says.
Through Faith, Charlie Says will follow the three women’s transformations as they face the reality of their horrific crimes.
The drama will focus on the three women (Murray, Young, and Rendon) who were sentenced to death in Manson’s (Smith) murder case.
Charlie Says is set to shoot in Los Angeles in the spring and will be introduced to buyers in Berlin later this month, where it will initially be launched.
