And in her latest project, Chastain tackles a completely different threat, one that feels increasingly prevalent in today's society: the rise of online hate and extremism.
The show is based on the Cosmopolitan article Is It Possible to Stop a Mass Shooting Before It Happens?, with the character of Jodi inspired by the anonymous subject of the article – a woman named only as 'K'.
Despite working with such a dark subject matter, and even with the knowledge that there really are so many of these people out there, Chastain tries to hold on to hope.
"I mean, there's that Dolly Parton quote, I'm not gonna say the quote because I won't be able to do it perfect, but it's something about, like, 'The rainbow only shows up after the rain'. Something like that, you know?
"I'm always going to navigate from a place of hope because I do think that at our core, humanity and people are good. And the ones who aren't are the ones who make the loudest noise. But there's more power in goodness."
With a powerful performance from Chastain, who also acts as an executive producer on the show, The Savant also stars Nnamdi Asomugha, Pablo Schreiber, James Badge Dale, Cole Doman, Michael Mosley, Dagmara Domińczyk, Jordana Spiro, Trinity Lee Shirley and Toussaint Francois Battiste.
