When a hit British crime series about a notorious plastic surgeon and secret serial killer takes a dark turn into real-life murder, a celebrity’s wife begins to question whether her method actor husband can portray a killer on screen without becoming one off-screen.
A method actor. A deadly affair. Who is playing whom?
Zane Osborne, Britian’s beloved actor, is starring as London’s notorious plastic surgeon and secret serial killer, Ethan Holloway, in the hit show Play Him, Play Her. But behind closed doors, his life is unravelling.
His wife, Lilja—a 39-year-old chef and mother—dreams of opening her own restaurant, but Zane’s neglect and his reckless drinking overshadow any hope for a happy future. When Lilja uncovers his affair with his assistant, Nic, the glossy image of their perfect life shatters.
Zane’s method acting has always blurred the lines between himself and his character, but now those lines are dissolving completely. As the world around him questions his true identity, he struggles to distinguish reality from the twisted role he plays. When Nic goes missing after Zane’s birthday party, a viral podcast puts him at the centre of a chilling mystery, making Zane a prime suspect.
