Amy Dunne was written as a manipulative sociopath, someone who could twist any situation to her advantage. On-screen, Rosamund Pike took that foundation and added a sense of eerie detachment that made Amy even harder to read. She didn’t show anger the way most villains do. Instead, Pike made Amy’s emotions feel deliberate, as if everything was rehearsed. Even when she was covered in blood, Pike kept her movements controlled, making her actions feel colder and more calculated. The way she smiled during tense moments made it unclear if Amy was enjoying the chaos or simply testing what she could get away with.
