Here’s Why Connie Britton Was the Perfect Fit to Play Faye Resnick
Anyone that watches television ever knows that Connie Britton is a brilliant actress. Her role on Nashville is one of the best ones on television and people just love her. Her soft-spoken charm and her relatable personality just make her one of the most successful women on television. She’s recently announced that she will portray the famed Faye Resnick in an upcoming series on FX. American Horror Story is doing a series on OJ Simpson, the former NFL star accused of murdering his ex-wife and her then boyfriend back in 1994. He was acquitted in 1995 and not charged for the murders, much to the outrage of the people in the US. The story will portray Connie Britton as Faye Resnick, who was a longtime friend of Nicole Simpson Brown who actually stayed with the murdered woman just a few days before her death. There is some question as to whether or not Connie Britton is the right person to play Resnick, who has a lot of Hollywood friends, but not really anything of her own. But we think that the casting is brilliant and we will tell you precisely why.
She Has the Hair
Let’s face it; Faye Resnick is known for her big hair and her big personality, and we think that Britton has perfect hair for the role. Perhaps it isn’t a good reason, but when we look at her we see it.
She’s Stellar
She plays roles that are challenging and interesting, and we think that this is a great role for her. We have no doubt she will portray Resnick to a tee, learning all about her and her mannerisms.
She’ll Get to Play an Addict
Resnick was sent off to rehab for a cocaine addiction just days before her friend was murdered, and we think that Britton is going to play a great addict. She’s so good at all she does in her career, and we thik that she’s going to be good at this one.
She’s Good at Being Domineering
If there is one thing we have learned about Faye Resnick watching her appear alongside her famous friends in various reality shows, it’s that she’s a bit domineering. She is not afraid to say what she thinks and to make her opinion known, and we see Britton as being someone who can pull this off famously.
She’s Professional
If there is one thing that people love to say about Britton, it’s that she is so professional and good at what she does. She takes the time to really get to know the character and she does it to the best of her abilities, which means that she is going to make a really good Resnick.
