From 'Orange is the New Black' to 'The Handmaid's Tale', Samira Wiley manages to make her mark even in non-lead roles

The actress played Poussey Washington in the Netflix hit before winning hearts and accolades for her role in Hulu's dystopian series
PUBLISHED APR 5, 2019

Samira Wiley, popular for portraying Moira, who becomes a Jezebel called Ruby in 'The Handmaid's Tale's Gilead, is the same actor who portrayed one of the most popular characters on Netflix hit 'Orange is the New Black' - Poussey Washington.

From then to now, one thing that hasn't changed for the actor is her knack for picking impressive characters who might not lead the show, but remain forever etched in the audience's minds. 

Especially when it came to Poussey, the character was built over a period of time. She started out as one of the young girls who unfortunately gets caught after a robbery.
