by

In a forthcoming sequel series for Hulu titled “The Testaments,” actor Chase Infiniti has been cast as a co-lead, teaming up with returning actress Ann Dowd. The narrative continues within the universe of Gilead, re-imagining Margaret Atwood’s chilling dystopia once more.

In a recent development, actress Infiniti (famous for her role in Presumed Innocent) has been cast as a co-lead in the sequel to Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel that spawned The Handmaid’s Tale. Infiniti shared her enthusiasm about joining the series on Instagram. This news comes after the continued partnership between Hulu, MGM, and the creator of The Handmaid’s Tale, Bruce Miller, who has played a role in creating the new series. The sequel is based on Atwood’s 2019 novel that unfolds 15 years beyond the original story of The Handmaid’s Tale, providing insights into the outcomes of significant characters from the initial book.

Miller collaborates extensively with Atwood, who is the advisory producer for The Testaments. This series will offer a new angle compared to The Handmaid’s Tale, concentrating on three women linked to Gilead: a young lady brought up in the oppressive regime, a Canadian adolescent discovering her true heritage, and Aunt Lydia, the series’ antagonist played by Dowd. While the last season of The Handmaid’s Tale concludes June’s narrative, The Testaments will offer additional insights, delving deeper into the world of Gilead.

Readers are excited as they anticipate that “The Testaments” will delve deeper into the universe of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” providing fresh viewpoints and a captivating storyline. As the publication date for “The Testaments” approaches, the tale of Gilead is set to unfold further, shedding light on the original series and enriching it with more complexity.
