How Hailee Steinfeld’s TV Show Roles Compare
The Actress' Biggest TV Roles Are All Vastly Different From One Another
Despite all of Hailee Steinfeld’s major TV shows performing incredibly well, her roles couldn’t be more different. Her first mainstream show,Dickinson, is a dramatic comedy set in the 19th century, and the actress plays a poet in a coming-of-age story. The show explores Emily Dickinson’s relationships, sexuality, and society as a whole, with Steinfeld putting in a hilarious and charming performance. In comparison,Hawkeyeis a much more action-orientated show, and while the actress still plays a humorous and likable character, her role as Kate Bishop feels entirely different as it is set in Marvel’s superhero world.
Hailee Steinfeld was nominated for an Oscar for her first-ever feature film,True Grit.
Watching Kate become an unlikely hero and unintentionally get dragged into fights against trained killers was fun, but it’s a massive contrast toDickinsonandArcane. AlthoughArcanealso features plenty of action, the animated show takes place in a steampunk universe based on the popular video game,League of Legends. The series is more violent than Steinfeld’s other work, and whereas bothDickinsonandHawkeyehave predominantly light-hearted tones,Arcane tells an incredibly brutal and heartbreaking story.While these projects have little in common, Steinfeld does a phenomenal job adapting each unique setting, which showcases her talent and versatility.
