Everything coming to Netflix in October, Culture Whisper
From The Good Nurse with Jessica Chastain and Eddie Redmayne to The Watcher with Naomi Watts and Mia Farrow, Netflix in October wields many dark and delightful pleasures.
The Good Nurse
UK Netflix release date: 26 October
Director Tobias Lindholm is no stranger to serial-killer dramas, having directed two episodes of Mindhunter. Therefore, the notorious story of psychopathic nurse Charles Cullen is a good fit. Like the case of Harold Shipman, Cullen confessed to murdering 40 patients using lethal overdoses and is implicated in the murders of hundreds more.
Adapted by Last Night in Soho screenwriter Krysty Wilson-Cairns, The Good Nurse examines how Cullen successfully killed for so long. Eddie Redmayne portrays the murderer, severing his family-friendly impression as Newt Scamander in the Fantastic Beasts franchise. He stars alongside Jessica Chastain as Cullen’s medical colleague Amy Loughren, who risked everything to bring Cullen to justice.
