Elisabeth Moss Reveals ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ Crew Member’s Request for Character’s Underwear

Elisabeth Moss, best known for her role as June Osborne in the award-winning series “The Handmaid’s Tale,” shared a peculiar yet intriguing tale. After completing the final season of the show, Moss expressed her desire to keep her character’s undergarments as a memento. However, she was surprised to find out that an unknown crew member had already made the same request before her.

During an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on March 25, Moss recounted the incident, revealing that she had sent out a production-wide email to secure the unique souvenir, only to realize that someone else had beaten her to it. To Moss’s amazement, the crew member who wanted her character’s underwear remained unidentified.

Host Jimmy Kimmel was understandably baffled by the situation, humorously highlighting the oddity of the formal request for Moss’s undergarments. Although Moss harbored curiosity about the mysterious crew member’s identity, she ultimately preferred not to know. Kimmel suggested holding a live event to reveal the person’s name, drawing parallels to reality TV specials like “The Bachelor Men Tell All.”

Despite missing out on her desired keepsake, Moss shared that she was able to take home some items from the set of “Mad Men” after its final season back in 2015. While she snagged her character Peggy’s chair, she humorously admitted that it wasn’t the most comfortable piece of furniture and is currently sitting in storage.

As Moss reflected on the conclusion of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” she emphasized that it felt like the right time for the series to end. The show, based on Margaret Atwood’s renowned novel, is set to premiere its final season on Hulu on April 8, featuring three episodes to kick things off.

Moss’s captivating storytelling on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” painted a vivid picture of the behind-the-scenes world of television production, leaving fans eager to witness the dramatic finale of “The Handmaid’s Tale” and hopefully uncover the identity of the crew member with a peculiar request.
