Gilead’s Next Generation Comes of Age in The Testaments
The Testaments, a coming‑of‑age extension of The Handmaid’s Tale, shifts the focus to the next generation at Aunt Lydia’s academy, following Agnes MacKenzie and Daisy as they navigate power, loyalty, and resistance in a brighter yet still dangerous Gilead. With Ann Dowd returning as Lydia and a fresh young cast led by Chase Infiniti, Rowan Blanchard, and Lucy Halliday, the 10-episode series debuts April 8 on Hulu (three episodes at launch, then one per week).
