This weekend, no doubt you’ve been getting hooked on new creepy drama Ratched on Netflix. The series is all about the story of Nurse Mildred Ratched, and quite a few of the cast are annoyingly recognisable faces.

Some of the actors you remember straight away, and some have those kind of faces that will leave you racking your brains all day over where you’ve seen them before. So before you get too stressed out, here’s where you recognise all of the cast of new Netflix series Ratched from. You’re welcome.

Nurse Ratched – Sarah Paulson

Ok, let’s start with the pretty obvious one. In Ratched, Sarah Paulson is cast as the iconic Nurse Mildred Ratched. You probably recognise her from multiple roles across the American Horror Story series, as well as from American Crime Story, Birdbox and Ocean’s Eight.

Edmund Tolleson – Finn Wittrock

Gwendolyn Briggs – Cynthia Nixon

Cynthia Nixon plays the campaign manager for the governor, Gwendolyn Briggs. And let’s keep this short, you know her face because she’s Miranda in Sex and the City, obviously.

Nurse Bucket – Judy Davis
