Exclusive: Staffers from two talent agencies that recently ceased operations — temporarily or permanently — are coming together. Matt Fletcher and Katie McGrath from Kmr Talent, which suspended its SAG-AFTRA franchise last month, have joined Arise Artists Agency, the company recently launched by former A3 Artists Agency President Brian Cho following A3’s shutdown.
Fletcher will be heading the Emerging Talent Division, and McGrath will focus on inclusion and actors with disabilities. Their clients include Cedric Joe, Mason Cotton, Jenna Davis, Carey Cox, and Lauren “Lolo” Spencer. Fletcher and McGrath join former A3 agents Ashley Partington, Abbie Waters and Nic Frascino, who joined Arise at its inception.
“We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Matt, Katie, and their incredible talent to our growing team at Arise Artists Agency,” said agency’s CEO Cho. “Their experience, diverse perspectives, and unwavering passion for their talent align perfectly with our vision as we strive for continuous growth and success.

It’s all-out war between June and Serena, and I’m both thrilled and disappointed.
Thrilled because Elisabeth Moss and Yvonne Strahovski are astonishing to watch when their crazed characters are at each other’s throats.
The reasons for my disappointment are likely obvious to anyone who’s been watching this series since day one. The enemy might be the state of Gilead, who stole June’s daughter and made her a sex slave, but the bad guy has long been Serena. Before that, for June, it was Aunt Lydia. Even against the backdrop of dystopian patriarchy, The Handmaid’s Tale is a relentless catfight.
Now, Serena is being sent back to Canada with more freedom than she could ever access inside Gilead, plus the baby she’s always craved. She’s also been assigned a staff, a war chest, and the diplomatic mission to show the world that even totalitarianism has a soft side.
