Hailee Steinfeld Thinks Her Fans Will be Inspired By Emily Dickinson in New Apple Series

Hailee Steinfeld poses with Jane Krakowski and Dickinson creator Alena Smith at the preview event for the series at Apple Regent Street on Tuesday (October 22) in London, England.

The three talked about the new Apple+ series with fans at the event. The show will premiere on November 1st on the streaming network.

“I hope that they [my fans] don’t feel like they have to be okay with being unseen, because that’s not okay. You should want to feel understood and good about who you are and what you do and what makes you happy,” Hailee shared with Variety on why Emily Dickinson will be an inspiration to them.

She added, “I’m so excited that I was given the opportunity to embody this character. I mean, I could have used this a couple of years ago, but I can use every bit of it in my life right now. And I can only hope that other young girls see the show and feel fearless and courageous and can embody that sense of Emily Dickinson, as well.”
