Away

Before she became a Golden Globe-winning actress, Hilary Swank once dreamed of being an astronaut. She finally gets her wish, at least in fiction, by playing an astronaut in the upcoming Netflix drama series, Away.

For the young six-year-old growing up in the Pacific Northwest, it was a nightly ritual to look up into the sky, stare at the stars, and dream that one day she would become an astronaut. While the career path for Hilary Swank would take a different path, some forty years later, the two-time Golden Globe and Oscar winner finally got her wish fulfillment.
