How Madeline’s Fall Of The House Of Usher Ending Changes From Edgar Allan Poe Story

The Fall of the House of Usher star Mary McDonnell reveals how Madeline’s ending changed from Edgar Allan Poe’s original story. Created by Mike Flanagan, the Netflix show explores how siblings Roderick (Bruce Greenwood) and Madeline Usher came into power and depicts the gruesome events surrounding their fate and their family. Along with McDonnell and Greenwood, the cast of The Fall of the House of Usher includes Carla Gugino, Henry Thomas, Samantha Sloyan, T’Nia Miller, Rahul Kohli, Kate Siegel, and Mark Hamill. Madeline, the strong-willed COO of Fortunato Pharmaceuticals, is based on a character from Poe’s short story, though her death is handled differently in the show.
