Blessed be the 6 God. Drake is already one of Canada's national treasures, but he may cross over to legend status if a certain dystopian author gets her way. During an interview, The Handmaid's Tale author Margaret Atwood revealed that she'd like to see hip-hop's favorite soft boy appear in the second season of Hulu's killer adaptation of her book.

"Wouldn't it be fun for him to have a cameo in season two of The Handmaid's Tale?" Atwood suggested. "I'll drop that notion into the ear of Bruce Miller, the showrunner, and see what he can do with that, because of course the show is filmed in Toronto. Maybe Drake could help smuggle someone?"
If this dream becomes a reality and Drake goes from Degrassi to The Handmaid's Tale, he'll literally have fulfilled the "Started from the Bottom" mantra and achieved the ultimate glo-up. It would also be an opportunity for the rapper to meet Atwood, who also mentioned that she's never met her fellow Canadian star, stating: "I haven't met Drake, but I have of course met people who have met Drake, but you have to realize how o-l-d I am. I'm not likely to go to the same parties. Or many parties at all, to be frank."
Will Drake appear under his eye and make it to Gilead? We'll have to wait and see.
