The Handmaid's Tale Season 2 Will Further Depart From the Book

From the Television Critics Association, we learned that The Handmaid's Tale season 2 will make further deviations from the source material.

Elisabeth Moss was on a Television Critics Association panel over the weekend for Sundance Channel’s Top of the Lake: China Girl. After the panel, she spoke with reporters a bit about season two of her hit Hulu show The Handmaid’s Tale. Moss returns to work in September and earlier at TCA, Hulu SVP of Content Craig Erwich said he had read scripts for the new season.

“In the same way we did in season one, it really explores things in a way that, as a reader, you wanted the book to but it’s only one novel so what are you going to do?” Moss said. “It kind of goes places that as a fan of the book, I want it to go.”

Season 1 already took some welcome departures from the Margaret Atwood book. The character Luke (O-T Fagbenle) gets more screen time in scenes without Offred (Moss), and the show had time to explore other areas of Atwood’s dystopian world. Moss said season 2 will continue to both bring the book to life and explore it further.

“I think we had a pretty good mix of both in the first one and I think it will be similar in two,” she said.

The Handmaid’s Tale is set in a world where a dictatorship turns the U.S. into Gilead, in which commanders keep women as handmaids in red robes. During the ceremony, they force themselves on handmaid’s in order to conceive children. The cautionary tale of The Handmaid’s Tale has proven so timely that women have donned the iconic red robes with white hoods to protest and demonstrate against policies and new laws that would rob women of reproductive rights and other freedoms. Moss supports them wholeheartedly.

“It’s honestly so moving and gratifying,” Moss said. “Just moving honestly,. I’m so proud of them. I think they’re brave and I think they’re badass and I support it 1000% honestly.”

The Handmaid’s Tale also became Hulu’s most popular original series, surpassing The Path and 11.22.63 as the defining show for the streaming network. Season 2 is moving ahead, and Hulu is developing its slate of originals further to include J.J. Abrams’ Stephen King series Castle Rock, a new Beau Willamon series The First, and the 9/11 drama The Looming Tower.

It’s a new dawn It’s a new day It’s a new life For me And I’m feeling good

I went back to Nick. Time after time, on my own, without Serena knowing. It wasn’t called for, there was no excuse. I did not do it for him but for myself entirely. I didn’t even think of it as giving myself to him, because what did I have to give? I did not feel munificent, but thankful, each time he would let me in. He didn’t have to.

What’s she doing?

Driving.

[nickandjune]

So I’ve made a full gifset of the epsiode 5 scene but now I’m debating posting it because one of my my posts got flagged as ‘SENSITIVE CONTENT’ which is hysterical considering it was the gifset of June telling Nick she was pregnant. Which isn’t even slightly 'sensitive content’ wtf tumblr

[nickandjune]

Once. Actually twice for him. Two times for me….almost three. So close. Doesn’t matter, it can never happen again. Sorry, Nick.

[nickandjune]

There was an Offred before me. She helped me find my way out. 

She is dead. 

She is alive.

She is me. 

We are Handmaids. 

Nolite Te Bastardes Carborundorum bitches.
