'The Little Drummer Girl' star Michael Shannon never thought he would play a character like Marty Kurtz

As a mastermind behind an elaborate plan, Kurtz is nothing like the quirky characters Shannon has been playing all along
PUBLISHED NOV 15, 2018

Michael Shannon never thought he would take up the role of a spy and yet here he is acting as the mastermind behind a plot to bring down a notorious Palestinian terrorist in BBC One's 'The Little Drummer Girl'.

The Park Chan-wook adaptation of John Le Carre's 1983 novel follows the plight of young, aspiring actress Charlie Ross (played by Florence Pugh) lured by an alluring stranger, Becker (played by Alexander Skarsgard), to assist in Mossad's plot to track down the terrorist. Charlie soon finds herself to be a pawn in Mossad agent Marty Kurtz's (played by Shannon) plan to make Charlie play the role of a terrorist's widow.
