Charlie Hunnam, widely recognized for his portrayal of Jax in Sons of Anarchy, is set to star as the infamous serial killer Ed Gein. While the rest of the cast has yet to be revealed, Hunnam's role will focus on Gein, also known as the "Butcher of Plainfield." Born in 1906, Gein was arrested in 1957 following the disappearance of Bernice Worden, a local hardware store owner. When authorities searched his property, they uncovered a gruesome array of human remains, including organs and clothing fashioned from body parts. Gein confessed to exhuming numerous corpses to remove body parts, engage in necrophilia, and create masks and suits from human skin, which he wore at home. He also admitted to murdering Worden and another woman, Mary Hogan, and was suspected in several other disappearances. Gein's heinous acts inspired iconic characters like Norman Bates from Psycho, Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs, and Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
