Gwendoline Christie was well-versed in the mysteries of the goats on Severance, but after being hypnotized, she’s lost all recollection.
In the latest episode titled “Who Is Alive?”, we find Christie portraying Lorne, a leader at the Department of Mammalian Nurturability within Lumon. Although the purpose of rearing goats in this division remains unclear to viewers, Christie’s character Lorne is well-versed in it. To develop her character authentically, Christie sought insights about Lumon’s goats from series creator Dan Erickson. Christie, a dedicated fan of the show, wanted to watch the episodes as they were released without spoilers so she could enjoy them like any other viewer. So…
She confided that she visited a hypnotist who put her under hypnosis, making her forget the experience to keep it a surprise for others. To her surprise, this was her first time experiencing hypnotherapy, and she had only heard about its effectiveness in helping people quit smoking and other things. However, intrigued by the concept as portrayed in a show, she decided to give it a try, and surprisingly, it has worked for her.
As I dive into Season 2, just like everyone else, Christie is blissfully unaware of the intricacies of goat life. Some might say she’s managed to disconnect from her work memories, offering a fresh perspective. When I shared the story of her hypnosis with Executive Producer and Director Ben Stiller during our conversation about the episode, his curiosity was piqued. “I think everyone on Severance should experience that,” he mused. “Once we wrap up the season, the entire cast and crew should undergo a similar process to ensure no accidental spoilers slip out.
He was kidding, of course. At least, I’m pretty sure.
