Playing Villains The Spiritual Psychology of Acting Podcast

The Joker, Moriarty, Darth Vader, Norman Bates, Sauron, Voldemort…the list of classic villains we all love to hate is endless.
Whether in the rise in popularity of true crime stories or in the indelible performances of Oscar winning screen actors, people are obsessed with the dark side of human nature.
In this episode, we delve into the psychology of villains, learn the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath, and explore how the actor can avoid cliché and create villains that are three-dimensional.
