Rather than depicting the gruesome horrors of his crimes, the film tells the story from Liz's perspective, and is based on Ms Kloepfer's book, The Phantom Prince: My Life With Ted Bundy.
Collins, who met Ms Kloepfer as part of her research, told Sky News this was the reason she decided to take on the role. "It felt necessary to tell in that way, otherwise it was like telling the same story over and over again."Director Joe Berlinger, who also produced the recent Netflix documentary series Conversations With A Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes, said Efron took some"cajoling" to take on the part."The reason I wanted Zac to play the role is that the lessons of Bundy can't be overstated.
Berlinger said he wanted to take Efron's"real-life persona of a beloved heartthrob" and use it so that the audience"almost forgets" they're watching a film about Bundy.The director said there had been"a million" serial killer movies where you see"an escalating body count and gruesome violence" but he had not seen one about"how serial killers function when they're not killing".
