Showrunner Eliza Clark and star Ben Schnetzer tell Newsweek why defining gender was important in Hulu’s new show 'Y: The Last Man.' Read more:

Reflecting on what it was like being one of the only cisgendered male cast members on a female led show, Schnetzer said:"As far as just the team of individuals that we were working with, it was just one of the most freakin' inspiring, creative, dedicated group of individuals I've ever worked with -- irrespective of gender."breakout stars is Ashley Romans who plays the mysterious but unstoppable Agent 355.

Not letting her get off with being so humble, showrunner Clark added,"This woman is like one of the most capable human beings I've ever met in my life and besides from being an incredible, genius actor, she is like a force.
