“We had no idea what we were capable of…” Hulu has revealed the main official trailer for their new The Handmaid’s Tale spin-off series called The Testaments, arriving for streaming starting in April. This is once again based on a book written by Margaret Atwood – it’s actually the sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale and follows another new generation of young women who decide to rise up and rebel. “A gripping return to Gilead, The Testaments exposes the regime’s inner decay through the intersecting stories of 3 women whose choices could ignite its downfall.” It’s time to choose your own destiny. Set 15 years after the events learnt in the original series – which first debuted on Hulu back in 2017 and has continued through six seasons so far including the most recent Season 6 just last year. The Testaments series features Chase Infiniti (from One Battle After Another!) as Agnes MacKenzie (fka Hannah Bankole), Lucy Halliday as Daisy from Canada, Ann Dowd as Aunt Lydia, Rowan Blanchard as Shunammite, with Kira Guloien, Amy Seimetz, Brad Alexander, Birva Pandya, Zarrin Darnell-Martin, Mattea Conforti, Shechinah Mpumlwana, & Mabel Li. This looks especially good with Chase Infiniti leading the way. Bring ’em down! It’s worth a look.
