Eustice Huang, better known as Miss Huang, is a fictional character on the Apple TV + series Severance , portrayed by Sarah Bock. [1] [2] [3] [4]
Huang is a student and works at Lumon as part of the Wintertide Fellowship. Though young she asserts herself as a manager to the severed employees.
Huang has a subtly contentious relationship with her supervisor, Seth Milchick. She questions his decision making and is implied to have sabotaged his performance review by anonymously complaining that he too often uses big words and uses paperclips incorrectly. [3]
After completing her time as a Wintertide Fellow she is given a bust of Jame Eagan commemorating the occasion and is sent to live at the Gunnel Eagan Empathy Center in a remote location, leaving her parents' home. [5]
Series creator Dan Erickson stated that the idea of a child supervisor appealed to them as "strange and funny." He added "Lumon is always trying to present itself as the good guy, and it’s awfully hard to hate a child." On casting Bock in the role, Erickson said "she was just so good at the smiling corporate thing, and she felt authentically like a piece of that world." [6]
The ring toss water toy she plays was designed as a childlike distraction to correspond with her actual age, despite her managerial role on the severed floor. According to Severance prop master Catherine Miller, the ring toss water game was designed as a "Severed floor’s version of what kids do, being distracted by a cell phone." [5]
Alan Sepinwall of Rolling Stone compared her work style to that of Milchick, writing "Despite her size and youth, her omnipresent smile and serene demeanor evoke Milchick, which inherently makes her a threat." Sepinwall also notes the contention between the two, stating, "Tramell Tillman plays every scene with Bock as if Milchick has never hated anyone more than he hates this little girl." [7]
James Poniewozik of The New York Times commented on the tone of the character by describing her as "a new manager who happens to be a young child and seems to have wandered off the set of a Wes Anderson movie." [8]
