Hulu Announces a Release Date and Drops the Trailer for Season 4 of ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’
Hulu just dropped the trailer for the highly anticipated fourth season of The Handmaid’s Tale and announced a return date of April 28.
During the latest Television Critics Association press tour, Hulu shared news of new and returning originals. One of the most exciting announcements was the return of The Handmaid’s Tale, one of Hulu’s most popular and well-received shows.
Based on the 1985 novel by Margaret Atwood, the show stars Elisabeth Moss, who also helped to executive produce the upcoming season. Moss has been highly praised for her role, which has earned her a Golden Globe and Emmy for her outstanding performance.
The trailer for season 4 is intense as it follows Moss’ character June fighting back against the restrictions in Gilead. She leads the rebellion in an attempt to gain freedom from a totalitarian society, but she faces dangerous obstacles along the way.
Finallyyyyyyyyy 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

In previous episodes, June gave up her chances to escape to Canada, refusing to leave without Hannah, her daughter who was taken from her before reaching Gilead. Many are wondering if the two will finally be reunited along with June’s husband Nick.

The upcoming season is sure to be a success, with many already waiting on standby for its release. Check out the season 4 trailer for The Handmaid’s Tale and tune in to the upcoming season on April 28 on Hulu.
