‘Based on a True Story’s Liana Liberato Talks Getting “In Bed With A Serial Killer” And Tory’s Deadly Decision In Season 2


Reprising her role as Tory in Season 2 of 'Based on a True Story', Liana Liberato told Deadline about the character's life-and-death arc.

“I definitely thought at first, Tory would probably be in the dark in Season 2 and she’d just be dating Matt and having no idea that she was in bed with a serial killer,” admitted Liberato. DEADLINE: And I love that the show is both funny and exciting, but it’s also a tongue-in-cheek critique of the true-crime genre and how it kind of exploits victims and survivors. But I have noticed, and I spoke earlier on this as well, we’ve become a very callous society, and I think that we’re constantly, in the entertainment world, having to sort of up the ante in terms of gore and horror and shock in order to penetrate us.
