Syd BarrettCharacter guide · Rachel Keller

Rachel Keller portrays Sydney “Syd” Barrett in Legion. FX’s official introduction emphasizes her independence and tendency to keep others at a distance before her relationship with David. Her perspective is useful to follow in its own right, alongside the story’s shifting view of him.

Watch who defines the distance

Notice when Syd chooses to approach someone and when she asks for space. Following her decisions, rather than assuming what another character thinks she needs, gives the relationship scenes their own point of view.

Begin with Legion season one, episode one, then follow seasons two and three in order. The series develops its own mystery through the episodes; use its title guide for context rather than jumping into a later season for an individual character.
