We were so lucky to get a Snap with Fagbenle, and we are a huge fan of his work! Such a class act! So happy to see his star continue to rise.

Rising star Christina Ko gained much recognition from her work in FXX Series DAVE, and now is just beginning work on Hulu‘s THE HANDMAID’S TALE in Toronto. Ko has been cast in the role of  Lily, a Gilead refugee who has become a leader of the resistance movement in Canada. If you’re a fan of Justin Bieber – and there are many of you – she starred in his “Hold On” Video!

Ko is just so amazingly-sweet! So happy we got to meet her. She is going places very quickly! We learned that she speaks Mandarin-Chinese and also is a huge dog lover!
