'It's a relief to not be fighting zombies or eating anyone,' Lynskey told Newsweek, but said that filming the Auschwitz-centered drama had its own issues.
Melanie Lynskey has revealed her biggest 'challenge' while filming Peacock's new historical drama The Tattooist of Auschwitz.The Critics' Choice Award winner is known for playing complex female characters, such as Shauna in psychological horror Yellowjackets, or revolutionary leader Kathleen in zombie drama The Last of Us.However, Lynskey has taken on a tamer, but no less stimulating role in The Tattooist of Auschwitz.
She landed her first movie role aged 17, starring alongside Kate Winslet in Peter Jackson's 1994 drama Heavenly Creatures.Her performance was praised by critics, but while Winslet headed to Hollywood, Lynskey preferred low-budget indie projects. This ensured she produced work she was proud of, but meant that few people outside of the industry knew her name.
