This gives the character an actual personality. The subtle grin and being cloaked in shadow suggests it's someone who is mysterious and cunning. You know, wicked. The original has the pained ape just staring at the camera, not expressing any discernable emotion or intent.
If I recall correctly, though, the actual plot of that musical is that secretly she's not wicked, and it's the Wizard and Glinda who are terrible people.
Of fucking course. I was going to say if there's ever a remake of Misery, they'd contrive an excuse to make Annie an anti-hero. But then I thought if they made it about a disgruntled Game of Thrones fan who abducted George R.R. Martin, it might actually work.
I dunno, they'd probably follow the plot of Misery just fine. They'd just change Annie into a toxic white MAGA hat-wearing manbaby who's mad the heroic progressive they/them author put wonderful translesbians of COLOUR into its book.
Lol, that sounds like it actually could be popular, too.
The original is also hard to look at because she's ugly. You want to avert your eyes and NOT look at it.
