Playing a Psychopath, Refal Hady Struggles to Let Go of Character After Filming Refal Hady © KapanLagi.com®/Bayu Herdianto

Kapanlagi.com - Refal Hady is trusted to portray a doctor character who enjoys killing his patients in the movie TARIAN LENGGER MAUT. To delve into his role, the 27-year-old actor tried various methods, from watching the series HANNIBAL, cutting many chickens, to dissecting a frog's body.

"The director gave me several references to deepen the character, but the focus was on the series HANNIBAL. Then, to eliminate empathy as Refal Hady became Doctor Jati, I cut many chickens, dissected a frog's body, and took its heart. I was disgusted by the frog, so I became stressed," said Refal when met at Plaza Senayan, Central Jakarta, on Friday (30/4).

 

1. Difficult to Let Go of Character

Some things done to deepen the psychopathic character apparently have an impact on Refal Hady's psyche. He even traveled to let go of the role that had penetrated him.

"When I return to being Refal again, life feels flat, numb. And the happiness I gained after portraying this character becomes somewhat less. So, how can I return to my true self? I do things that make me happy again, whether it's traveling, meeting family, or playing with friends. It slowly returns," he explained.

 

2. One Habit Carried from the Movie

However, it turns out that there is still one thing that is still carried from the habit of the character Dr. Jati that he brought until now. What is it?

"In the movie, there is a part where I drop all the hearts. It feels really nice to drop things. So I really like it, after the process of portraying Dr. Jati, it's nice to throw things when I'm angry. That's just a small thing that I carry from the set, for the rest, it's safe," he concluded.

3. Being Productive During a Pandemic

Despite the pandemic, many people are trying to stay productive and do positive things. Of course, this is done by implementing health protocols consistently. Starting from wearing masks, maintaining distance, and regularly washing hands. Always remember Mother's message, KLovers, to avoid exposure to Covid-19. Stay safe!
