Meh, I might be biased, but Nicole Kidman embodied Mrs Coulter much better in the original movie, "The Golden Compass". Too bad religious groups killed the series, because I think the casting was much better in the movie. This Ruth lady "overacts"... and Lin Manuel playing Lee Scoresby is a total miscast, like what were they thinking?
Ruth Wilson portrays her with this constant state of barely repressed psychopathic fury it's actually frightening, as if in any moment she will simply unleash upon someone. Like, there's something so broken about her, like her mind is completey fucked up and spends most of it in a state of walking agony. It gives layers of depths to her, rather than than being something purely malevolent, there's like a real profoundly tragic aspect to her. It's a stunning performance.
I didn’t think much of Mrs Coulter in the books, but I love Ruth Wilson’s portrayal of her! She’s one of my favourite characters in the show. She can be so intimidating but then show a vulnerable side where you almost feel sorry for her. After reading the Book of Dust, you can kinda see why she is the way she is.
@@Prince_the_One but she truly believes that removing dust is removing sin I mean it's not her fault she got brainwashed, if society weren't so sexist she wouldn't have to do what she did, she might turn out more like Mary..
Ruth’s acting is soooo on point check this out. . I showed this show to my mother, someone who is not a tv person. She only watches her novelas so she’s not use to watching shows like this, sci-fi. From the very first episode when mrs.coulter met Lyra my mom was already suspecting something but didn’t say anything. Episode two comes around and when mrs.coulter was washing Lyras hair my mom said . . . “That’s her mother isn’t she” I was blown away.
Brilliant series on HBO. Can't wait to see season 2. Ruth Willson is fantastic as Mrs Coulter. Nicole Kidman played her in The Golden Compass and was very good too, but Wilson rocks.
You can't decide whether to hate her or love her or love to hate her or whatever and won't even care because in case of mrs coulter i think it doesn't matter because whether you feel or not for her anything but 100% you can't ignore her and can't stop yourself by being fascinated , admire her and THIS IS SOMETHING . Amazingly written and played character.
Fifty Nicole Kidman to one Ruth Wilson. No offence I love Nicole Kidman and was so delighted when she won her oscar but I just think she wasn't right for Marisa. Ruth Wilson was PERFECT in this role. She gave the Marisa to the part. Nicole Kidman was only Mrs. Coulter.
@@221BSam It's more in the affectionate treatment towards me. (Think back to the first series when Lyra was being treated affectionately by Mrs. Coulter to start off with).
There’s such emotional depth to this character. They picked an excellent actress to play her. I did love Nicole Kidman in the role but the movie was a mess. I’m loving the show
And I wish mrs coulter and Lyra be together and I know deep down mrs coulter is a good person somewhere I really want Lyra to help mrs coulter become a better person course I think Lyra can help her
She does love Lyra and I know what she did was wrong but she was just upset she was just taking it out on Lyra and it’s all the mansturium fault just remember Lyra and the witches won’t let the mansturum win And I don’t think Mrs coulter and Borieal will let them iever well I hope not and it doesn’t mean she doesn’t love Lyra if she didn’t love her she wouldn’t keep saving her and just remember she has been threw a lot I mean I don’t think she had great parents And Asriel seduced her and then abandoned her grieving widow and leaving with a child of wedlock And I really hope Lyra and mrs coulter can be together and Mrs coulter And Boreal And I really hope there’s going to lots of sobs story’s speacialy between Mrs coulter Boreal and Lyra speacialy mrs coulter and Lyra in His dark materials in season 2And season 3 and I know Mrs coulter was hissing screaming I think at season 2 but she wanted to know about who is Lyra Blaqua is she does need to know about her safety
That’s interesting. I never saw Mrs coulter as a control freak I know she wants power but I think that’s more about just wanting everything she wants in life and having a bad temper if she doesn’t. I saw her obsessiveness and need for control coming from the deep rooted trauma of having to give a baby up which can absolutely destroy women. And upon meeting her and having Lyra in her grasp it has made her motherly love and yearning all the more intense and desperate.
It's not just giving up Lyra. It's coming from an abusive home and learning how to control and take pain. It's suppressing her hatred of men who want to steal her ideas and work because the women of their world are viewed as unworthy to learn academia. She had to get special permission to do so.
@@moonchild712 yeah you’re right. I think I said to someone before that a lot of it is a defensive mechanism in a way, it’s like her aggressiveness comes from only being able to handle the men and the power with having that side.
Ruth Wilson does an amazing job with probably one of the most complicate characters I've ever seen... cant wait to see how she does with Coulter in Season 3!
@@thisisthewronghat2706 Yh she was abusive to Lyra yeah she was and she shouldn’t of done that At all full stop but she was just upset she didn’t mean to hurt her own child please don’t tell me u lot think she will actually hurt her daughter on purpose course you got it all wrong she will never hurt her daughter on purpose
Marisa Coulter is my favorite character of the entire saga, for her character harnest the highest level of complexity while being the most uncompromising. So she was the scale on which I would rate the quality of this show... And for me it is a complete and utter disaster. The arriviste woman who won over the poshest society looks like a farm girl. The ruthless visionary, the brilliant scholar, the ambitious politician, the stealthy spy, the master of humans emotions, the brutal warrior, the trained survivor, the absolutist mother, the ambivalent lover have been brushed aside for a cliché hysterical femme fatale. This show needed the highest class of actors and writers and I got mid tier, imo. So I can't watch the show, for I fear the world I envisioned would be replaced by what I consider being sloppy imagery, in comparison of the masterpiece that is Pullman's saga.
I really hope that Ruth gets more villainous roles in the future, it suits her well. If that happens, she would really win an Oscar. It's a scandal that she didn't win an Emmy for this role
Ever since I read the third book I always had this vivid image of her going after lyra in a classic safari outfit, with the pocketed-belted jacket, bulb-sided trousers and the tall leather boots. And there she was in season 2 wearing almost exactly those things. I can't really remember HOW I got that image of her. Surely Pullman didn't describe her in OUR world's terms, so pretty sure that wasnt it. So strange.
Whoever reading this comment may you have a blessed life full of happiness with your lovely family and may you succeed in your every good aim.. I am also doing much hard work for my food channel but I am getting sad now because I am not getting much response I don't want to become hopeless,,,,,,""" 😭
I wish mrs coulter be a mother to Lyra and I wish Lyra give mrs coulter a second chance and I wish Lyra get Rodger back and I wish Lyra and mrs coulter make up
season 3, they may make that a thing, depending on if they follow Lyras reaction in the first few chapters. If they don't? Maybe Lyra might have a forgiveness scene
I'll start by saying I'm a fan of the original movie, "The Golden Compass". That said, I enjoy watching the TV series, but there were a few mistakes: Nicole Kidman IS Mrs Coulter - not this Ruth lady! And Lin Manuel should not have played Lee Scoresby, total miscast IMO!
@@lem1738 What makes you think I haven't read the books years ago?? Even Pullman, the author, said Nicole Kidman was perfect for the role, so that should tell you everything you need to know. I'm no where near boomer age (although I wish I could be living the retired life right now lol).
@@00inwiththenew00 Pullman is also a producer of the show himself unlike the movie and Ruth Wilson was their first actress of choice for picking Mrs. Coulter - should also tell you all you need to know. Nicole was an iconic Coulter, so is Ruth. Nicole was only able to give Mrs. Coulter a shallow allure due to time constraints of the movie. Ruth gives her emotional layers and a feral streak - I can’t imagine any other actress being able to give Mrs. Coulter the unapologetically feral, dangerous, and charming performance that Ruth gave, she’s an impeccable Mrs. Coulter mind you
Mrs. Overbite. How many slow motion "bad-ass" walks of this woman can you put in each episode. I tried to watch the show but it is brutally padded and drawn out. 90% filler, 10% action then cut to black, only to do it over the next episode. Such a waste of a fantastical world and great cast (besides the ugly in the wrong lighting girl from Seinfeld)
Wtf d’you mean 90% filler, it’s literally the plot of the book. It’s all necessary. Also, degrading a real woman by her appearance is pretty awful dude
I would have to say that is not true since their daemons are actually part of them it's really their soul given physical form. They are hurting each other spiritually which is exactly what human beings do.... *** if you hate it don't watch, leave it to those of us that enjoy it! Now go play somewhere else!

Mrs Coulter is probably my favourite character, all thanks to Ruth Wilson's amazing acting
She is amazing!
Exactly!!
They made Mrs. Coulter even more fascinating a character than the book and Ruth’s portrayal is phenomenal.

She is one of the most fascinating characters in literature. An intelligent psycho and a loving mother

A loving mother? lol

I read them and she was a terrible mother. she hurt Lora in the third book. do you remember the cave scene?

Mrs. Coulter is way better
No she hurt her own daughter but Cersei won't do that.
Marisa has better execution than Cersei
@@moonchild712 I'd think more early series Cersei, but Mrs. Coulter is quite a bit better than Cersei
Mrs. Coulter is a complex, powerful and evil character. Ruth Wilson is such an amazing actrees!
