Hulu lands Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale follow-up The Testaments

TIME

Time magazine, which put Atwood on the cover of this week's issue, says "it’s unclear at this stage what form The Testaments will take — whether it will be folded into the existing Hulu series or developed as a separate work." Hulu and MGM Television are developing The Testaments with Handmaid's Tale showrunner Bruce Miller "involved in discussions about how to best approach the new material," according to Time. Atwood's follow-up to her 1985 dystopian novel will be released in bookstores on Tuesday, set 15 years after the events of the first book.
