Kate Siegel chats with Kyle Meredith about her role in the Netflix series The Fall of the House of Usher, including how she based her look on Mirage from The Incredibles.

Created by Mike Flanagan, the miniseries based on the various works of Edgar Allen Poe tells the story of the downfall of a family, a corrupt pharmaceutical company, and a mysterious woman plaguing the characters as they disappear one-by-one. Siegel chats about the “necessity of pain” that weaves throughout the story, coming up with her own backstory, and (spoiler) filming her death scene. 

Speaking to how she developed her the look and feel of her character, Camille, Siegel admits to looking to unlikely sources like the Incredibles character and Doja Cat’s “Won’t Bite.” The actress also reveals her one demand before taking the role: “I have to be hot as fuck! If I die with my face being ripped off, then I want to be the hottest bitch around.”

Elsewhere, she touches on befriending Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross through their work on the score, and having to reshoot a large chunk of the show following Frank Langella’s firing as a result of a misconduct investigation.
