Quick elevator pitch: Elisabeth Moss has strong opinions about who should play June Osbourne’s daughter, and her pick is not subtle. Meet Chase Infiniti, the actor Moss says checks every off-the-wall box required to become Hannah/Agnes in the upcoming spinoff The Testaments, which arrives in April.

Only one person would do

Moss explained that the role of June’s missing daughter needed someone with a certain vibe. In her words, the actor had to “have a gravity to her, an intelligence, a sense of having come from something else, having come from somewhere else and have that sense of complexity.” Also important: be hopeful about the future and extremely talented. No pressure, right?

Her conclusion was blunt and delightful: “You do not find that. There’s basically one of them and that’s Chase.” Translation: casting roulette? Not this time.

Will June and Hannah finally hug it out?

Quick refresher for the emotionally exhausted: in the original series, June spends seasons hunting for her daughter, who was raised by foster parents and renamed Agnes MacKenzie. Fans have been holding their breath for a reunion. Moss, who is also a producer on The Testaments (based on the Margaret Atwood novel), would not confirm whether that meet-cute happens.

Her stance was equal parts mysterious and teasing: she refused to say yes or no, noting that if she revealed one thing she could no longer deny the other. In other words: no spoilers, only vibes.

Meanwhile, on the lighter set of Imperfect Women

Moss also opened up about Imperfect Women, her Apple TV series that premieres March 18 and co-stars Kerry Washington and Kate Mara. The crew’s off-camera life sounds like an indie podcast you didn’t know you needed. According to Moss, the cast never stopped talking. Their on-set chemistry apparently spilled into the real world, and long after filming wrapped they’re still mid-conversation.

She said those talks range from silly little life hacks to deep, private stuff they wouldn’t tell everyone. Basically the group chat you wish you had, but with better hair and better scripts.

What else to put on your watchlist (because you were going to anyway)

  • The Testaments - spinoff arrives in April. Expect questions, moral panic, and graceful acting.
  • Imperfect Women - hits the streamer March 18. Gossip plus secrets plus grown-up friendship energy.
  • TV reshuffle highlights: a bunch of shows scored renewals, a few are bowing out. Notable mentions: Drew Barrymore renewed for seasons seven and eight; The Audacity picked up for season two; The Boys heads into its fifth and final season; Jersey Shore Family Vacation will GTL one last time in season eight; and Abbott Elementary is coming back for season six.
  • Also on the tidy shelf: some series are wrapping, some are getting fresh seasons, and Kelly Clarkson announced she will end her daytime show after season seven to spend more time with her kids.

Bottom line: Moss is smitten with Chase Infiniti as Hannah, is delightfully mysterious about whether June and her daughter reunite, and is basking in the afterglow of a new, chatty cast friendship on Imperfect Women. If you needed a reason to add both series to your queue, consider this your official, slightly sassy thumbs-up.
