So, here’s everything fans should know about the potential new series: The Testaments News Hulu has optioned the rights to this new book, and although a new series based on the book has not formally been announced, its influence was already evident in Season 4 and will likely continue to guide the upcoming Season 5. But, instead of June, it follows different characters, including one very well-known one: Aunt Lydia. Atwood’s follow-up, The Testaments, sought to clarify her fate (although it still did not give details). But the most important one, how it will all end for June, remains. Since the show has continued past the end of the book, some of those questions were answered. Did the Eyes arrest her? Was Mayday rescuing her? It was left to the reader to decide. Her original 1985 book had ended ambiguously, with Offred tossed in a van, her destination unknown. At this point, it looks like when June’s story ends, The Handmaid’s Tale will too, but the world of Gilead will continue in The Testaments, which is expected to release on Hulu at some point in the future.Īfter The Handmaid’s Tale was such a huge hit on Hulu, Atwood was inspired to return to the world of Gilead. It’s also the story of those who attempted to survive and thrive in Gilead: the Waterfords, Aunt Lydia, Nick, and Commander Lawrence. It’s no longer just “the Handmaid’s tale” of Offred, but of Emily, of Moira, of Janine. But along the way, the story has broadened.
The Handmaid’s Tale has lasted four seasons so far, an improbable run for a series initially viewed as a limited adaptation of author Margaret Atwood’s novel of the same name.
