To immerse herself in Veronica’s twisted mind, Krista drew from real-life experiences, reflecting on individuals she’d encountered who exhibited obsessive or unstable behavior. This personal connection helped her tap into Veronica’s complex psyche, adding depth to her portrayal.
Influenced by psychological thrillers like “Single White Female” and TV series “Sharp Objects,” Krista drew inspiration from authors Gillian Flynn and Paula Hawkins. Her physical transformation into Veronica was equally deliberate, working closely with costume and makeup departments to create a polished facade hiding her character’s true nature.
