Eva Green's insight on her role in The Three Musketeers – Part II: Milady

Eva Green recently discussed her role with Collider's Carly Lane, highlighting the expanded backstory of Milady as a pivotal factor in her decision to take on the character. Green emphasised the opportunity to add depth to Milady, a character she found somewhat lacking in depth in previous adaptations.

She said, "In the first part, she's very Milady, very driven by vengeance, a harsh exterior, a seductress, a chameleon, but then in the second part, you discover another side of her. I love the fact that the writers invented this backstory, and we understand why she became such a ruthless protagonist. There's some real depth to her, and you see the fragile woman, the wounds, and I thought that was something that we'd never seen in the other adaptations."
