Jason Clarke on the Monster in Alex Murdaugh & The Man Behind The Glass
Murdaugh: Death in the Family Official PodcastShow Notes
Jason Clarke joins journalists Mandy Matney to reveal how he embodied Alex Murdaugh — from physical transformation to capturing the charming darkness that defined him. Dive into the haunting portrayal of one of America’s most notorious killers.
Clarke walks listeners through the intense physical and psychological transformation required to inhabit one of the most confounding criminal figures in recent memory — from studying Alex’s voice and mannerisms to enduring the physical strain of weight changes and emotional extremes.
Jason's Alex character wielded unsettling charm and keenly captured the unraveling of his addictions, plus the contradictions that defined him long before the murders. Through candid reflection and chilling scene breakdowns, this episode reveals how drama can illuminate the emotional truth inside a real-life tragedy — without glorifying the villain or exploiting the victims.
This episode also shares additional insight from actors Spencer Garrett and Rob Morrow who portray Jim Griffin and Creighton Waters respectively... the attorneys that defended and prosecuted Alex Murdaugh.
