My Take
Riley Voelkel won over fans as the beguiling witch Freya Mikaelson on The Originals and Legacies, and her modeling background gives her a striking screen presence. The performance that truly impressed me, though, was playing the younger version of Jessica Lange's Fiona in American Horror Story: Coven, no small task when you are shadowing a legend. With The Newsroom also on her resume, this California-born, Canadian-raised actress has been building something solid and deliberate. I have a hunch she has bigger things ahead, and I am quietly rooting for her.
