Hulu knows when it has blessed fruit on its hands.

The signature series on the streaming service is undoubtedly The Handmaid’s Tale, borne of Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel.

The story of June and her fellow handmaids in the dystopian world of Gilead, in what used to be the United States, has just completed its third season.

24 years later, Atwood is publishing a sequel entitled The Testaments, which will be set fifteen years after the events of Elisabeth Moss’s character, and Hulu has decided to bring it to screen as well.

Discussions are currently underway with the showrunner of The Handmaid’s Tale, Bruce Miller, while fans await a premiere date for season four.

The Testaments will be available on shelves on September 10th.
