5 Surprising Scientologists

Stars from The Walking Dead, Friends, The Handmaid’s Tale and Star Trek are devoted Scientologists.

The Church of Scientology is thought to be a strange and scary, cult-like organization, yet great talent continues to emerge from it. The Church’s deep ties with Hollywood and well-known, but little hard evidence seems to exist to explain how so many Scientologists become award-winning A-listers.

John Travolta and Tom Cruise are the biggest names that are mentioned time and again, but there are many more screen stars that were born within the Church or are members of it.

This article will talk about five Hollywood stars and how they came to be connected to one of the most secretive religious organizations on the planet.

1. Elizabeth Moss

Miss Moss is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning actress, known for playing June Osborne in the Handmaid’s Tale and Detective Griffin in Top of the Lake.

Elizabeth is a producer and all-around screen-star.

She also happens to be a self-proclaimed feminist-pro-LGBTQ-Scientologist.

This seems entirely contradictory in terms — so ironic that Alanis could put it in a song.
