This article contains discussions about addiction, mental health and suicide.

In the fifth and final season of “You”, Netflix’s drama in soap, which presents Penn Badgley as Killing Machine Joe Goldberg, met with some established characters and know some new ones, one of whom is the character of Madeline Brewer Bronte. A playwright who has been entering the Mooney Bookstore (the bookstore where Joe worked in the program’s debut season and now possesses thanks to his super rich wife Kate Lockwood, played by Charlotte Ritchie) and ends up working there, Bronte, who seems to have baptized after the family of the famous authors who included Kate, Charlotte, Emily, Emily Elizabeth immediately. Although he is apparently happily married to Kate, whose wealth, privilege and influence allowed Joe to claim his name and identity after pretending to be Jonathan Moore in London in Season 4, Joe is attracted to Broken, and if he has done so. ever Seen this show before, I bet you can find out where all this is going. (Probably anywhere else for Bronte).

The native New Jersey brewery has been working quite constantly on the big and small screen for years, and its role as a “you” finally elevates it to support the player to a good -faith advantage. (As the 5th season of “You” continues, Bronte becomes more and more crucial for history, but I will not spoil it at this time). So where have you seen Brewer before? In two quite popular television dramas, actually.

Netflix got into the TV Drama game prestige in 2013 with “Orange is the new black”, the Jenji Kohan series based on a memory by Piper Kerman (an author who really spent time behind bars). Although the story is presented as the Kerman substitute played by Taylor Schilling, his time at Litchfield Penitentiary gives the program the opportunity to highlight the stories and background of other women, including and especially queer women, trans women and women of color. (In particular, “orange is the new black” gave a important Platform to the trans actress and activist Laverne Cox, who obtained an assent from Emmy for her role as transity transity Sophia Burset and became a great star as a result). Madeline Brewer only appears in season 1 of the series, but her arch as an intern Tricia Miller certainly established the tone for the dark that this program would get.

We quickly learn that illicit substances flow freely through Litchfield despite the administrator’s efforts to discover how, and Tricia, who was fighting with addiction before his imprisonment, is one of the people who use these substances in prison. (Through the flashbacks, we also learn why Tricia ended up in Litchfield in the first place; she stole to support her addiction and stay alive while she is discouraged, but also maintained a list of everything she stole, we hope that she eventually returns her victims. Drug trafficking in the prison for her own gain, he supplies her. Supply, and when Méndez realizes this, hangs her from the roof and presents a scene that suggests that she died for suicide deeply The heartbreaking plot performed wonderfully by Brewer, which shows precisely how corrupt it can be the American prison system and how the people who work within it can and will abuse the inmates for their own benefit.

Based on the dystopian novel by Margaret Atwood of the same name, “The Handmaid’s Tale” began his Hulu career in 2017 and the cast of Madeline Brewer as Janine (a character who also appears in the book, although in a much smaller role). When we know Janine for the first time, she belongs to a commander named Warren (Stephen Kunken), giving her the name “Ofwarren”, and is quite friendly with the main character of the June program (Elisabeth Moss), who, at that time, is “offensive” (she is the hand of the hand of Joseph Fiennes, Fred Waterford). Before the United States became the religious totalitarian state known as Gilead, Janine worked as a waitress and had a son named Caleb (which he later revealed, died in a car accident shortly after Gilead’s rise), and she begins her training as a right maid at the same time. Janine is initially stubborn and challenging towards women who support the Gilead regime, including the terrifying Aunt Lydia of Ann Dowd, in the Red Center, and as punishment for trying to defend themselves, her right eye is removed.

After that terrible frankly horrible experience, Janine experiences serious mental health problems, believing that Warren is in love with her and “kidnaps” the baby they have together (in Gilead, babies produced by the servants are immediately delivered to the high -ranking wives of their respective commanders). He sent it to the colonies, which is, for all purposes, a forced labor field, before Gilead is then returned and suffers many, many more traumatic indignities under “his eye”, as the saying in Gilead says. “The Handmaid’s Tale” is a In fact Uncomfortable show to see, especially in 2025, but Brewer is absolutely sublime like Janine.
