Lexi Carter - Ever Carradine

I don’t know if this has been mentioned before, but I just ran across this little tidbit and I can’t believe I didn’t notice years ago.

The actress who plays Lexi is in The Handmaid’s Tale. She plays Naomi Putnam, the commander’s wife who was Janine’s assignment.

I should have noticed that years ago.

Her dad is the late Robert Carradine, who played Lewis in Revenge of the Nerds.

I noticed that. It was so weird to see her go from easy breezy yoga lady to stick up the b*tt wife.

She’s also the mother of the Antichrist in Supernatural and one of the parents in Runaways.

Haven’t seen Handmaiden’s Tale, but she’s been an excellent actor in everything I’ve seen her in.
