Adolescence Star Describes 'Genuinely Scary' Scene with Co-Star
Erin Doherty, who stars as clinical psychologist Briony Ariston in Netflix's acclaimed drama 'Adolescence', shared her experiences filming a particularly intense scene with her young co-star Owen Cooper, who plays Jamie Miller, a boy accused of murder. During a critical therapy session, Jamie's demeanor shifts from childlike innocence to aggression, which Doherty described as 'genuinely scary'. She praised Cooper for his ability to evoke empathy and push his performance boundaries, especially during the 11th take that was ultimately used in the series. To prepare for her role, Doherty consulted her former therapist to gain insights into the psyche of professionals in her character's field and to authentically portray the therapist's experience. The show's unique one-take filming style has been widely praised, contributing to its tension and emotional depth. 'Adolescence' has garnered critical acclaim as one of the best dramas in recent years, with Cooper being tipped for potential awards recognition for his performance.
