Jaden Thompson Andrew Scott transforms into the ultimate con man, Tom Ripley, in Netflix‘s limited series adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s novel “The Talented Mr.
Ripley” — but he still found human qualities to latch onto when embodying the chilling, metamorphic character. “He’s an outsider and he’s somebody who’s quite downtrodden and somebody who’s brilliantly talented who’s on the outskirts of society,” Scott told Variety at the “Ripley” premiere Wednesday night in Los Angeles. “He’s a lonely — or at least an isolated — figure.
And he’s put into this world full of people who are very entitled and confident, and so there was plenty of him that I found easy to attach to.” Adapted by writer, director and creator Steven Zaillian, the series follows Ripley, who is sent to Italy to convince the affluent loafer Dickie Greenleaf (Johnny Flynn) to return stateside.
