The Handmaid’s Tale was one of the most successful shows on tV last year, winning several Emmys and Golden Globes along the way.

We’ve also heard that Moss’s character offred is going to become even more rebellious, which should move her even further away from being the loyal, well-behaved handmaid she was trained to be. Joining the cast for Season 2 will be Veep star Clea DuVall, oscar winner Marisa tomei and Get Out star Bradley Whitford. The series returns to Hulu on April 25.

it’s hard to believe it has been five years since Janelle Monáe released a new album, but then again since that time she’s done a pretty remarkable job turning herself into a successful actress in such movies as the oscar-winning Moonlight and Hidden Figures. Dirty Computer is her third studio album, following up the critically acclaimed The ArchAndroid and The Electric Lady. Monáe collaborated on the album, including the first single from the album “Make Me Feel,” with prince before he passed away.
