'Dexter' Alum Yvonne Strahovski to Star in Hulu's 'The Handmaid's Tale'
Hulu is putting together an impressive cast for The Handmaid's Tale, an adaptation going straight-to-series of Margaret Atwood's dystopian novel.
Yvonne Strahovski of Chuck and Dexter fame will star opposite Joseph Fiennes and Elisabeth Moss as the wife of Commander Waterford (Fiennes), named Serena Joy. She's the head of the household staff and an influential public figure.
The series is the story of the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society formerly a part of the United States. It is a place ruled by a twisted fundamentalism that treats women as property of the state, and follows one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred (moss).
Strahovski will next be seen in All I See Is You, starring opposite Jason Clarke and Blake Lively.
