Publish date: 2024-06-08

Elisabeth Moss is one of the few Hollywood celebrities who are followers of Scientology. 

The 40-year-old American actress is well-known for her lead role as June Osborne in The Handmaid’s Tale. She is also a co-producer of the Emmy-winning TV drama.

The series is back with the first episode of Season 5, “Morning,” airing on September 14.

Elisabeth Moss Religion: God Faith And Belief

Elisabeth Moss follows Scientology. She has been Scientologist all her life as her parents were both devout followers of the religion.

Her father once played in a jazz band with Ron Miscavige, whose son, David Miscavige, is the current chairman of the Church of Scientology.

Moss says that Scientology helps her feel “centered.” She believes that it is not a closed-off religion like many people think and that it always welcomes anybody who wants to learn more about it.

Further, Moss thinks Scientology has improved her communication ability and helped her become a better person.

Nevertheless, not all her fans are happy with her religious affiliation. But Moss says she cannot control what people think and is unaffected by their views.

Furthermore, she values religious freedom, tolerance, and equal rights for every race, religion, and creed.

Tom Cruise, John Travolta, Kelly Preston, and Katie Holmes are some other famous followers of Scientology.

Learn About Elisabeth Moss’s Family And Ethnicity

Actress Elisabeth Moss was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, US. Her birth name is Elisabeth Singleton Moss.

She is the daughter of Ronald Charles Moss and Linda Ekstrom Moss. Both of her parents were musicians. Her father was a jazz musician and manager, while her mother was a blues harmonica player.

Her mother, Linda, lives in New York. She always supports Elisabeth and accompanies her to movie premiers and public events.

Elisabeth’s parents, unfortunately, split up when she was a child. We do not know what kind of relationship she has with her dad now.

Moss has one younger brother named Derek Moss. Derek was born in 1984 and is a filmmaker by profession. Moss also has a paternal half-brother named Freddie and a half-sister named Lisa.

Elisabeth’s father is British, while her mother is American of part Swedish descent. Elisabeth holds dual citizenship in US and UK. She is of white ethnicity.

Besides, she was married to actor Fred Armisen from 2009 to 2011. The two met in October 2008, dated for a while, and married on October 25, 2009, in Long Island City, New York.

However, the marriage did not last long, and the duo divorced on May 13, 2011. She dated Australian cinematographer Adam Arkapaw for three years following her divorce, but now she is officially single.

Elisabeth Moss Net Worth: How Much Has She Earned?

Elisabeth Moss has an impressive net worth of $30 million (£24.8 million) as of 2022, as reported by Celebrity Net Worth.

The actress was reportedly paid a modest $75,000 for Mad Men. Moreover, Hulu pays Moss an astounding $1 million per episode for The Handmaid’s Tale.

And since the actress is also one of the executive producers since season two, Moss has likely been collecting more than just her acting wage.

Notably, Moss is also the owner of the production company Love & Squalor Pictures. She also has many more projects in process, such as the sports comedy-drama film Next Goal Wins, which is scheduled to release next year.

Moss first played as a child artist in Bar Girls and the mini-series Lucky Chances in 1990. The Handmaid’s Tale cast made her film debut in 1991, appearing in the Hulk Hogan movie Suburban Commando.

The rest is history. Now, Elisabeth is the winner of two Golden Globes, two Emmy Awards, and one AACTA Awards.
