But he's sure he'll catch the acting bug again when the scripts for The Handmaid's Tale arrive. Like all true believers, Mrs. Fagbenle loves to play basketball and go backpacking.

Why 'The Handmaid’s Tale' Should Keep Its Focus On Women

With apologies to your YA book group, neither The Hunger Games nor Divergent invented the dystopian future. Many novels, films, and television shows have imagined an end to life as you know it and the beginning of a new and more dangerous one. In 1985, Margaret Atwood's novel The Handmaid's Tale was published; in 2017, the television adaptation is debuting on Hulu, starring Elisabeth Moss as Offred formerly June — a member of the handmaid class trying to escape servitude and be reunited with her family. Much has been made of the idea that the subject matter is eerily timely, with in-power Republican lawmakers vowing to defund Planned Parenthood and reverse Row V. But according to O-T Fagbenle, who plays June's husband, Luke, in the series, the timing was always right. No, 2017 isn't a special year. Everything they wear, say, and do is monitored. Their bodies are not theirs to do with what they want; they are only valued insofar as they can produce heirs for their masters. In her old life, June is a modern woman you might recognize from yoga class or a lecture. She's your opinionated neighbor, who won't abide cat-calls. They seem detached at first, perhaps assuming that they, as well-off and educated people, will be fine. To Fagbenle, it's that obliviousness to privilege that makes this story almost universally applicable. And yet, The Handmaid's Tale is regarded by many as a seminal piece of feminist literature because of the strong focus on the sexual and bodily autonomy of women — or lack thereof. According to The A. Club, Moss said that she considers and not a feminist one. It's possibly the most damning piece of fiction to ever address the oppressiveness of prohibitive reproductive legislation. But can it actually change minds? Will there be a Handmaid's Tale generation of newly minted pro-choice activists? Those who prefer their TV to be light and sunny may be tempted to skip bleak series, but Fagbenle assures me that the characters' survival instincts will bolster the audience. And in fact, the first episode of The Handmaid's Tale ends on a fighting note, with a resolute June vowing to live through this trial and to find her husband and child. To O-T Fagbenle, acknowledging that is an opportunity to make the future better.

They don't make it, which doesn't count as a spoiler since it happens in the show's first two minutes. O'Connor believes that she's not actually guilty, and never realizes how she's helped create an elisabeth moss dating ot fagbenle world for people who don't deserve it. Born Olatunde Olateju Olaolorun in London in 1980, Fagbenle describes his single-parent home as a matriarchy — his mother and sister are, he says, the two most influential people in his life. When I ask if he is technically in a position to be considering these propositions ie, is he single. He played the lead in Six Degrees of Separation and two roles in the Sony Radio Academy Awards for Drama winning BBC radio adaption of The Color Purple. How did you get involved with this project. Q: There are differences between the book and the TV show for example, Luke appears to have been shot in the first episode whereas Offred never knows whether Luke is alive or not in the book. Whether they're the leaders who created the place or just collaborators willing to go along, the show is full of people willing to watch others suffer every day — and even inflict that suffering.
