Enthusiasts of ‘The Handmaid’s Tale‘ have an exciting prospect ahead! Although the final season of the popular Hulu show will debut on April 8th, a follow-up series titled ‘The Testaments’ is currently being developed. Now, there’s some fresh news regarding the casting for the show.
It was revealed on Thursday that Chase Infiniti, the actress, will take on the role of Agnes, one of the main characters in ‘The Testaments.’ She’ll be joining Anne Dowd, who is anticipated to reprise her character Aunt Lydia, which she portrayed in ‘The Handmaid’s Tale.’ Filming for this series, which has been underway since 2022, is slated to begin at the end of March. At this time, Hulu has not made an official announcement about the series order.
‘The Testaments’ is a novel that continues the story from where Margaret Atwood’s original book, ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’, left off. It unfolds over fifteen years later and revolves around three primary characters: Aunt Lydia, Agnes (a character who matures in Gilead), and Daisy (who resides in Canada). The narrative unveils hidden truths about the regime of Gilead and its resistance efforts.
Actress Infiniti, who has been cast as Agnes, gained prominence for her performance in Apple TV+’s ‘Presumed Innocent,’ working alongside Jake Gyllenhaal and Ruth Negga. In the small screen adaptation of ‘The Testaments,’ it is suggested that Agnes is the offspring of June (Elisabeth Moss) and Luke (O-T Fagbenle). While this connection was subtly implied in the novel, it wasn’t explicitly revealed. At present, there’s no certainty regarding whether Elisabeth Moss will feature in the sequel.
Bruce Miller, the mastermind behind ‘The Handmaid’s Tale,’ will also direct ‘The Testaments.’ He’ll be teaming up with executive producer Warren Littlefield to breathe life into this story. Littlefield points out that although ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ was penned years ago, its themes remain strikingly relevant today, making ‘The Testaments’ a crucial next chapter.
Although the specifics about the last season of ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ are still unknown, the recent cast announcement for ‘The Testaments’ offers a sneak peek into what lies ahead. Filming is due to start shortly, so we can anticipate more news in no time!
