T10 WHATS UP! July 24 - 30, 2022 mass-murder confession mo- ments before his death. Still un- able to pin anything on her di- rectly, Jackson and Lola keep a close eye on the exonerated Freddy, who is now running a charity and working with a ghostwriter on her tell-all crime memoir. A disturbing call to Freddy's phone from an unknown num- ber in the middle of the night, however, marks the beginning of yet another series of murders. As Jackson and Lola take up this new addition to the case, Freddy is excited by her twisted new se- cret admirer and courts him to get what she wants: the death of several people. The brutal killer responsible for doing Freddy's dirty work in "We Hunt Together" commits his crimes while wearing a pi- geon mask, earning him the moniker "The Birdman" in the media. As Freddy's cult follow- ing gains steam, one of her for- mer employers even throws a Birdman-themed opening-night party, requiring a pigeon mask for entry. With several likely pi- geon-mask owners now in the city, the real Birdman's identity is murkier than ever. Haunted by everything that happened with Baba, Freddy sees him everywhere in Season 2. An obvious deep longing for her former "partner in crime" hangs over Freddy even though she's romantically strung along her dead best friend's brother, Henry, portrayed by Angus Im- rie ("Star Trek: Prodigy"). Difficult, sharp, murderous women like Corfield's Freddy have become a powerful force in several prestige crime dramas of recent years, including unforget- table performances from Jodie Comer as Villanelle in "Killing Eve" and Ruth Wilson as Alice Morgan in "Luther." As with "We Hunt Together," both these hit series also featured the kill- ers' cheeky, close relationships with the detectives who know them best. In an interview with Collider, Corfield spoke about the chal- lenges and delights of bringing such a terrible person to life on screen. "I found her really liberating to play, in that she's completely unafraid," Corfield said. "I think her fearlessness, and her direct and unapologetic way of getting what she wants, are things that I learned to like about her." The actress does admit, how- ever, "There were definitely moments, with her manipula- tive tendencies, that I found it hard to be empathetic towards her." Don't miss the final attempt to unmask The Birdman in Season 2 of "We Hunt Together." The fi- nale airs Sunday, July 24, on Showtime. Both of the series' seasons are also currently avail- able to stream on the Fubo and Showtime apps. continued from page T2 To kill for: All leads point to Freddy in 'We Hunt Together' TV FEATURE 5 x 5 Eve Myles and Babou Ceesay in "We Hunt Together"
