Madeline Brewer, known for her role as Brontë in You Season 5, has had a diverse career with notable appearances in various Netflix productions, but her most acclaimed role is in the prison drama Orange Is the New Black. Brewer played Tricia Miller, a recovering addict whose death in the first season left a significant emotional impact on viewers.
On the other hand, You is about Joe Goldberg, a charming but dangerously obsessive man who becomes fixated on the women he falls in love with. Brontë is introduced in Season 5 as an artist and playwright. She could be the reason behind Joe’s entry into more artistic circles. According to reports, she might play a crucial role in the upcoming episodes.
Where have we seen You's new actor, Bronte, before?
People who are fans of serious, raw, and gritty dramas may have recognized her from the 2013 hit show Orange Is the New Black. The show explores life inside a prison filled with female inmates and brings out some of the most intricately woven, gripping, and unheard stories from behind bars. Madeline Brewer is shown as one of the inmates at Litchfield Penitentiary.
In the outside world, she was deprived of love and belonging, leading her to fall deep into drug addiction—which continues even inside the prison, with one of the prison guards bullying her for money. She dies in the very first season from an overdose of oxytocin that the guard gave her. This leaves the inmates in shock, as they had already grown emotionally connected to Tricia Miller. In the season, she was someone who desperately wanted to give up drugs but kept falling back into addiction. However, just when it seemed like she was getting better, the show surprised us with her death.
On Reddit, some fans are shocked to realize that Brontë is actually Tricia Miller from Orange Is the New Black, with some citing the actor’s unique look as the reason they didn’t recognize her immediately.
Fans are simply appreciating the actor for her work and acknowledging that they had seen most of her previous roles—except You.
