The Handmaid’s Tale Season 4: June Is on the Run (Again!) in New Trailer — Find Out When It Premieres
The Handmaid’s Tale‘s June just has to hold on until April.
That’s when Hulu‘s dystopian drama, which ended Season 3 with Elisabeth Moss’ character bleeding copiously, will be back for Season 4. (Wednesday, April 28, to be exact.) The return date was announced in conjunction with the show’s panel at the Television Critics Association winter press tour.
As hinted at by Moss in a TVLine interview earlier this year and made abundantly clear in the new teaser trailer below, June definitely will not succumb to the wounds she sustained while successfully staging an airlift of children out of Gilead. But what will become of the misogynistic state’s most unruly handmaid?
“It’s funny, because sometimes people will say to me, like, ‘How is she still alive? She’s committed the worst atrocities out of any of the handmaids, and yet somehow, she’s survived,’” Moss told TVLine in July, chuckling. “And my answer is usually, ‘Yeah, because… I’m the lead of the show. They’re not going to not have me in the show. So that’s why I keep surviving.'”
A Radio Free America broadcast serves as the backdrop for the trailer below, which seems to depict June’s life amid the rebellion. There’s quite a bit of footage of her not wearing her red robes — dare we hope that she’s actually going to get out this time?! — as well as shots of Commander Lawrence, the Waterfords, Nick and Aunt Lydia… who commands someone to “Find her, and bring her to me.”
In other blessed-be-the-fruit news: Haunting of Hill House alum Mckenna Grace will recur in Season 4 as Mrs. Keyes, the teenage wife of a much older Commander. She is described as “a sharply intelligent” spouse who “rules her farm and household with confidence. She has a rebellious, subversive streak, and is calm and pious on the outside with turmoil, even insanity, on the inside.”
Press PLAY on the video below, then hit the comments with your predictions for Season 4!
It feels like it’s been forever since this show was on. Time for a rewatch! I’m so used to hearing Rachel Maddow’s voice lately, I’m wondering who’s on the radio? Definitely not Oprah anymore. It looks really good and promising, like things might actually happen!
I read the first book in 1985. Read “The Testaments” this summer.
The books are alittle different but you will enjoy them.
Now to decide if I’m going to watch week to week or if I’ll wait and binge the whole thing! Oh, who am I kidding? I’ll do BOTH!
I did find season 3 to be a better binge. It felt slow watching week to week, but was FANTASTIC as a binge! I cannot WAIT for season 4!!
Read the books. It will give you a glimpse of we hat is in the series vs. the written word
Anyone know if this will be the last season?
Already renewed for season 5
I had almost lost hope in The Hand Maids Tale ever coming back for season 4 …I’m really glad can’t wait I want me some more of that BEAUTIFUL Nick
Looking forward to seeing season 4. I do hope that they won’t drag out this storyline for too long.
I’m really looking forward to this, but I’m still bummed about Castle Rock being cancelled by Hulu.
I can’t even remember the end of season 3 it was so long ago. Didn’t Serena get out?
She was being held in a canadian prison for R*pe.
Looking forward to this! Some of the outside scenes were shot in the city where I live
