New role. The handmaid's tale.


Sounds like a great role for Yvonne to really show off her skills.

this is going to be a phenomenal opportunity for her, to show off her skills and nuance opposite some super talent.

this character is suppossed to be pretty awful, and yet you are suppossed to feel for her at the same time. yvonne will be able to bring it. im very excited for this.

Congrats Yvonne!

The cast is incredible: Elisabeth Moss, Joseph Fiennes, Samira Wiley, Max Minghella. Ann Dowd, and Madeline Brewer. And also love that Reed Morano is directing the first three episodes.

Great news, It'll be interesting to see how the show turn out as the Premise has me interested and it's always great to see Yvonne on TV.

Should be a good role but I'm guessing there won't be a flashback scene where Offred remembers Serena Joy as a gospel singer when she was a child. I'm wondering how different the story will be since the ages of the characters are much closer in this adaptation than they were in the book.
