Handsome men generally drive us crazy. But not like this.

Veteran actors Finn Wittrock and Jon Jon Briones both score another hit with Ratched, the new Netflix horror-thriller series about the famed villainous nurse of One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest. The show arrives on Netflix September 18.

Whitrock, of course, rose to fame with his roles on American Horror Story, American Crime Story: Versace, and most recently, Judy. Viewers will also recognize Briones from American Horror Story and American Crime Story: Versace, as well as from his vast theatrical resume, most notably from his turn in the 2017 revival of Miss Saigon on Broadway.

Now the pair return to horror with Ratched. In the show, Briones plays Dr. Hannover, the put-upon supervisor of an insane asylum. Wittrock plays Edward Tullison, a mass murderer, and Hannover’s latest obsession. Both characters captivated us, and left us wondering: who in the series is sane, and who is not? For that matter, who is good, and who is bad?

We sat down with the two handsome stars to chat about the show, their roles, and the nature of sanity. Ratched debuts September 18.
