Vicky Krieps had a wild moment on the set of Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story that involved her spitting on co-star Charlie Hunnam.
Vicky, 42, plays the Borden family housemaid Bridget Sullivan in the series. She quickly forms a close bond with Lizzie Borden (Ella Beatty) and eventually the pair work together to murder Lizzie’s parents, including her father, Andrew Borden (Hunnam) and her stepmother (Rebecca Hall).
There’s a scene in the show where Vicky and Charlie‘s characters get into a heated fight and spits on him. According to the Phantom Threads star, she really did it and it was because Charlie encouraged her to “really go for it.”
“I’m saying, ‘But I’m really strong.’ He says, ‘That’s fine,’ and he’s really strong, so he doesn’t mind,” she continued, according to People. “The strength was not a problem, but I was so in it that I’m supposed to kill him in the fantasy. He falls to the floor, and I bent over and I spat on him.”

He said when she did it, Charlie got up and was surprised by it.
“He gets up, he’s like, ‘What? What did you just do? You just spat on me. You can’t do that,’” she said with a laugh. “So, you know, it was very playful in the sense it was. And concentrated on the work and having fun.”
The duo also worked together on the previous season Monster focused on Ed Gein.
