\n\tThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/em> may be coming to an end, but Hulu is not saying goodbye to Gilead. Earlier this week, the streamer officially picked up sequel The Testaments<\/em> to series<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Gilead follow-up series will adapt Margaret Atwood\u2019s 2019 novel of the same name and see Ann Dowd returning as Aunt Lydia, with Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/em> star Elisabeth Moss executive producing. It will follow June\u2019s (Moss) daughter Hannah, known in Gilead as Agnes, and the team behind the series revealed some more key details at the The Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/em>\u2018s final season premiere on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\n\tCreator Bruce Miller, who was also behind the original series, told The Hollywood Reporter <\/em>that The Testaments<\/em> takes place four years after the end of Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/em> and is the story of \u201cAgnes MacKenzie living in Gilead and gradually finding out who she is. In the end of the book The Testaments<\/em> they bring down Gilead, so that\u2019s the goal of the show and the goal of Agnes growing up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe continues, \u201dWe tried not to make the same show \u2014 it\u2019s got younger voices, it\u2019s got a completely different feel and a completely different vibe but it\u2019s still Gilead, so I hope that the continuing threads continue to interest people while the new stuff is exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tExecutive producer Warren Littlefield added, \u201cThese young women have never known any other world other than Gilead, so it\u2019s a very, very different frame of reference and point of view.\u201d He also teased that the look of the show will be quite different, as \u201cit\u2019s pastoral, it\u2019s beautiful, it\u2019s a different architecture, different color palette and a young wonderful cast. But make no mistake, there\u2019s still a Gilead there, so that will reveal itself as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPresumed Innocent<\/em>\u2018s Chase Infiniti will play Agnes along with Lucy Halliday as fellow protagonist Daisy, and the show begins production on April 7. Dowd said her last day on Handmaid\u2019s Tale <\/em>\u201cwas wonderful, and then at the end I just cried; saying goodbye is another matter. I\u2019m so full of gratitude, so full of love for everyone, it\u2019s really hard to let go,\u201d and counts herself as \u201cvery fortunate\u201d to continue in the Gilead universe.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s exciting and slightly nerve-wracking, but I\u2019ve had the pleasure of meeting the actresses and I\u2019m very much looking forward to working with them,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe sixth and final season of The Handmaid\u2019s Tale <\/em>launches with three episodes April 8, followed by a weekly release through the May 27 finale.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
