On the surface, he&#8217;s our obvious antagonist in this story, the bad guy, but to reduce it to those terms would do him such an injustice because he&#8217;s just wonderfully complicated,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Fee added: &#8220;It&#8217;s so easy to paint him in a particular light, but I found myself really falling in love with him, the more that I stayed with him and sort of created this person in my mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Unchosen, a six-part series, is available to watch on Netflix from 21 April. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fee stars in Unchosen alongside well-known actors including Molly Windsor, Asa Butterfield and Christopher Eccleston.
