Joseph Fiennes: I said no to filming a Handmaid's Tale rape scene
-
“I guess in many ways, as abhorrent and nasty and evil as Fred is, I have to defend parts of him,” the actor revealed in a chat before the SAG-AFTRA Foundation. Fiennes said the Season 2 Episode 9 scene "just didn’t track for me. I had to go out on a limb and refuse to do it because I felt that even though Fred is who he is, he’s human."
