MAJOR SPOILER ALERT IF 당신 HAVEN’T WATCHED THE LATEST AMERICAN HORROR STORY EPISODE!
It’s the mystery that AHS 팬 have been wondering about for the past eight episodes of FX’s thriller: Who is Rubber Man? Well we finally got our answer in the latest installment of the Ryan Murphy/Brad Falchuk creepfest. The man in the rubber fetish suit is…
Tate (Evan Peters)! Yes the ghostly son of Jessica Lange’s Constance and the boyfriend of 제비꽃, 바이올렛 (Taissa Farmiga) is the fella who impregnated Violet’s mom, Vivien (Connie Britton), with twins. I’m fairly certain that a ghost/human spawn can’t bring anything but trouble. From the episode, viewers learned that Tate did the deed in order to grant original owner Nora (Lily Rabe) some peace after her own baby was dismembered and then transformed into the “infantata.” It’s 안전한, 안전 to say that only AHS 팬 will appreciate 또는 even understand the last couple sentences I’ve written. While EW normally chats with co-creator Ryan Murphy post-airing, this week we chatted Rubber Man himself, Evan Peters, on the totally twisted development.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: When did 당신 find out 당신 were Rubber Man?
EVAN PETERS: Just that episode.
What did 당신 think? Were 당신 shocked?
I was shocked, but I was also grateful. I was thinking, “Wow that’s pretty cool. I guess I have to slime up and put on the rubber suit.”
What did the other castmembers think about 당신 being Rubber Man? Were they shocked?
Yeah, I think everybody was pretty shocked. “Oh you’re Rubber Man? Oh my God. Wow. Oh you’re sick. Something’s wrong with you.”
Did 당신 have to go to Syren, the L.A. fetish shop, like everyone else to be fitted for the costume?
Yeah I went for “Halloween Part I,” I believe. I though, “That would be interesting if I’m actually Rubber Man. But they can’t do that.” And then they did it and I was like, “Oh my God.”
How is it putting on that suit? I’ve heard it’s oddly cold.
It is. It’s like you’re naked when 당신 walk around set because it’s just a layer of latex. It’s frustrating to put on because 당신 have to lube up basically because if it gets caught on your skin…so 당신 make sure you’re all nice and slick and then 당신 get in there. 당신 have to wear a 옷, 가운 on set 또는 a jacket, so you’re not too cold.
So basically Tate is trying to appease Nora 의해 giving her the baby she lost?
Yeah. I had that 질문 too for Ryan. Basically the answer I got was he’s there to help. He sees that Nora’s soul is disturbed and is very sad. He has this sort of sweet spot for people like that. It resonates with him, so he wants to help them out and make sure they’re okay and peaceful. And since she’s dead and can’t leave the house, might as well give her what she wants so that hopefully she can be a little happier, instead of walking around crying all the time and wondering what was going on.
It’s just so twisted that 당신 impregnated Vivien and 제비꽃, 바이올렛 로스트 her virginity to you. Were 당신 like, Wow this is twisted?
Yeah, I was like, “That’s a bummer.” 당신 do this thing for this person because you’re trying to be nice, and then 당신 find out the 사랑 of your life moved into the house.
I like the Hayden/Tate ghostly duo. Do 당신 guys team up for 더 많이 fun?
I thought that as well. I thought that was pretty cool. I don’t think there’s too much 더 많이 in store for us. But it was pretty fun working with her — she’s great.
So will we see 당신 in the rubber suit again?
Oh yeah. Yeah. [Laughs]
Has this been the wildest role you’ve ever had? What has this been like to play?
It’s been interesting to say the least. It’s been exhausting because 당신 never know. As soon as 당신 have your mind made up about something, 당신 find something else out. So you’re kind of on edge all the time wondering what exactly have 당신 done and what are 당신 going to do so it’s been exhausting. I’m psyched for the season to be over with.
