Actress
Elisabeth Moss said she is a loyal supporter of women rights and empowerment. The 34-year-old actress said she cares for the cause, that needs to be achieved not only Hollywood but also beyond in real life.
"I'm such a staunch believer in women's rights, I don't really give a ... about anybody who isn't." "It's like, I don't need them to watch the show. At a certain point, things are more important than your job," said Moss.
The actress, who recently featured in 'The Handmaid's Tale', received flak for calling the dystopian drama not a 'feminist story'. Moss, best known for her role as Peggy Olson in 'Mad Men', had raked up a storm when she said she "never intended to play Offred as a feminist", at its Tribeca Film Festival premiere this year.
Author Margaret Atwood, on whose book the series is based, defended Moss' comments, saying the actress was "Not writer(s). Not wordfolk".
