The facial scar under Beth Dutton’s right eye, which she got from an explosion in the epic Season 3 finale, has become an undisguised and unapologetic character trademark.
The tough daughter (Kelly Reilly) added another permanent mark following the brutal finale battle against brother Jamie (Wes Bentley). The siblings have fought many times before. But Beth’s savage effort to avenge her father’s death, in which Attorney General Jamie played a significant role, turns next-level.
“This had to be the fight to end all fights, quite literally,” says Voros. “The biggest, the bloodiest and most brutal.”
Voros gives props to Bentley and Reilly for performing most of the filmed violence, with stunt doubles only for major physical moments. “Wes and Beth were taking and throwing the punches and keeping in that heightened emotional space to show the rage and the violence,” says Voros. “It was an ultra marathon.”
