Alexis Bledel

If you thought The Handmaid’s Tale had some eye-popping (sorry Ofwarrren) visuals before, wait until you see Season 2. Our first full trailer for the dystopian drama’s hotly-anticipated return is here, and it looks like Gilead is ready to e-x-p-l-o-d-e.

The first teaser for The Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 is officially under your eye. Return to Gilead with a first look at the Emmy-winning Hulu nightmare’s sophomore season; now set for a spring 2018 premiere.

Like some of TV’s best book adaptations, Hulu’s Handmaid’s Tale covered the lion’s share of source material in Season 1, and now eyes a new Tale in Season 2. As such, Alexis Bledel’s already-expanded role will become series regular when The Handmaid’s Tale returns in 2018.

Blessed be the fruit, Hulu’s best (and most terrifying) original series isn’t going anywhere. The streaming outlet has placed a Season 2 order for the adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s decisively feminist novel The Handmaid’s Tale.

Hulu’s ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ brings Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel to life with terrifying and timely precision, and performances from Elisabeth Moss and Alexis Bledel that will rock your very soul. Our early review, before the first three ‘Tales’ arrive on April 26.

Gilmore Girls fans were lucky enough to get one revival, and it’s likely a second go wouldn’t carry the same urgency. Even stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel aren’t 100% certain of a need to revisit the Gilmore Girls, despite that closing twist.

Something tells us the hashtag “#TOOREAL” will trend across the internet once Hulu debuts its forthcoming adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale. Come, watch the downfall of our political structure in a full trailer for the April premiere, and be warned of some disturbing imagery.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: however arduous each TV revival proves, fans will inevitably clamor for another continuation. Netflix’s Gilmore Girls in particular ended A Year in the Life on the cliffhanger creators always intended, but may now be in “preliminary” conversations for another followup, reports reveal.

There’s no two ways about the fact that Hulu’s take on Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale is going to feel horribly relevant in its April premiere. That’s never more apparent than in a new featurette for the Elisabeth Moss drama, which explores the rise of misogynist dystopia “Gilead.”

One wouldn’t necessarily think of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale for a primetime Super Bowl ad, but Hulu’s Elisabeth Moss drama is already breaking down societal norms. See for yourself, as a fresh trailer teases what was once forbidden, and the misogynist hellscape Offred now lives in.
