Our first full look at the singer in the role of Marion Crane was also Rih’s too: to celebrate, she watched it with friends, got drunk and livestreamed their reactions. Rihanna recorded herself and her mates on Instagram live, playfully dissecting her role and providing some commentary scene-by-scene. After a little while, it turned into a drinking game, where everyone took a shot when ever someone said ‘Norman’ (that’s a lot). The ANTI singer has taken on a role originally played by Janet Leigh in the Hitchcock film. The fifth episode of the final series sets up Marion Crane and her soon-to-be doomed arrival at the Bates motel. Executive producer Kerry Ehrin previously told EW that the show would take a closer look at Crane’s character, fleshing out her romantic relationship and her life before the now iconic shower scene.
