VIDEO : Taylor Kitsch Says Playing Cult Leader Was About Authenticity, Not Sympathy

A version of this story about Taylor Kitsch first appeared in the Miniseries/Movies issue of TheWrap?s Emmy magazine. The biggest compliment you can give Taylor Kitsch on his ?Waco? performance is to learn more about the 51-day standoff in 1993 between the FBI and the Branch Davidians, led by sect leader David Koresh. ?The best reaction, and the most flattering, is just that [viewers] take it upon themselves to formulate their own opinion and do their own research,? Kitsch said.
