Collider: I know as a viewer, the show is extremely emotionally exhausting.

I have so much fun.

I love my coworkers.

I love the people I work with.

Our whole crew is the best crew on the planet.

We just have a great time.

I feel like I should say it is, really, but it’s not.

I love this character so much.

I love this show so much.

I love these people.

BREWER: This season?

I don’t think you could get through Gilead at all without a June.

She has a bond there with Esther.

BREWER: Yeah, first of all, I love McKenna [Grace].

I love that girl.

The Handmaid’s Tale

But I also think that she recognizes that this girl is, “How can I keep her alive?

Esther accuses her of using her to see her child at the Putnams' place.

How does that resonate with Janine?

BREWER: I think that Janine is always conjuring a plan to go and see her daughter.

I think it’s just built into her.

So I don’t think that she sees it as manipulation or as in using Esther.

I think that she’s just…

It’s always at the forefront of her mind.

Can I see my daughter?

Will I be able to see my daughter?

So everything else is secondary.

It’s a good… Because that’s how she survived, finding something good to hold onto.

Then a fun question off of that grim reminder of this world that they’re living in.

When I do character work, I always come up with songs and playlists and stuff like that.

BREWER: Let me look at my Spotify playlist because I do.

I knew you would have one.

BREWER: I really do.

For Janine, it is” All I Have To Do Is Dream" by the Everly Brothers.

“This Bitter Earth” by Dinah Washington.

“I Only Want to Be With You” by Dusty Springfield.

“You’ve Got A Friend” by James Taylor.

Yeah, those are some of them.

The new season ofThe Handmaid’s Taleis streaming now on Hulu.
