What is yvonne strahovski really like

It was all the moments in which they had either been screaming at someone or doing something abusive. Especially in season 4 for June with the way that her trauma is playing out for her as she settles into Canada.

In my mind, I just wonder what would have happened if June had been the wife of a Commander and Serena had been the Handmaid. How differently or similarly would they have played out their positions? But I do think going down that route would be the only way for someone like Serena Joy to really, truly be sorry and remorseful for everything she has done. I imagine it being really heavy and intense, but at the same time, a fresh start for her. Better yet, her kid is next.

He needed to go. It is flip-flopping a lot between what seems like two extremes. Do you think Serena has a breaking point? Is there anything that would make her leave Gilead? Then what would she be personally invested in Gilead for? But even if she does redeem herself in some way, shape or form, I am curious how people will respond to that because of Episode 10 and what happened.

But you mentioned sympathy. I walk this really fine line of absolutely despising her and everything she stands for, but at the same time I also have to work with her and understand her.

These are two completely juxtaposing positions to be in. So, on one hand, I totally understand her and her moods, but when I step away from that, as me the person, I find what she does completely horrid. You are playing one of the most hated women on one of the most grueling shows on TV. I love the complexity of playing her and portraying that. This season has drawn a lot of parallels to our current political situation.

Maybe not. Strahovski plays mum and laughs. There are so many possibilities here. Follow her on Twitter at heydudemeg. July 13, One day in Sydney in , Yvonne Strahovski, then 25 years old, called her best friend Olivia Stambouliah, also She wanted Stambouliah to feed her lines to her.

Audition tapes must be hell to make. Despite all this, Strahovski got the role. Looking back at that audition tape now, you can see why. A decade and a half later, these qualities remain. But those 14 years have made one additional detail clear. Yvonne Strahovski can act. Logging onto Zoom from her home in Malibu — one day someone will write a story about the true hell of interviewing people on Zoom, and journalists of the world will rise up and call that person blessed — Yvonne Strahovski has her camera turned off.

Then her friendly American-Australian voice comes out of the ether. A moment later she pops onscreen. Her chin-length bobbed hair is damp and wildly messy. Therefore, I am going to report to you that IRL well, as R as Zoom can be , Strahovski looks less coolly alluring than she does on screen.

But she is still, unequivocally, gorgeous, with that blue-eyed, blonde-haired, regular-featured beauty so beloved by Hollywood. Credit: Alamy. She is the child of immigrants; an ethnic woman. Yvonne Strahovski was born in Sydney in to Polish immigrant parents. Bozena and Piotr Strzechowski, a lab technician and electrical engineer, fled communism in their native Poland in their 20s.

Strahovski as a child growing up in western Sydney with her mother, Bozena. Nonetheless, the Strzechowskis embraced life in this country. My childhood was full of hiking and going to the Blue Mountains and Bungonia Caves, and caving, abseiling, camping.

I have really clear, and very fond, memories of all the natural elements of Australia. Acting started in primary school. It was just something I was always doing. She did it at school, too, and Stambouliah still remembers one of her final projects in year 12 at Santa Sabina College.
