The Handmaid's Tale review

The Handmaid's Tale was supposed to premiere on Hulu on Wednesday, April 28, 2021, at 12 a.m. ET, but the platform chose to surprise fans by releasing three episodes ahead of time. The fourth season picks up right where the third season ended, with June and a group of Marthas smuggled at least 100 children to Canada for their safety, resulting in June being shot and injured. June has now become the most wanted fugitive in Gilead, and she will have to face Aunt Lydia once again. According to Hulu's synopsis, "her quest for justice and vengeance threatens to consume her and destroy her most cherished relationships."

The first three episodes of the show are now available for streaming, but the platform is only available to users in the United States. Season 4 of the show is now available on Amazon Prime Video in India, but season 5 has yet to be released. The remaining seven episodes of the series will be released on Wednesdays beginning May 5, 2021. Watch the trailer below.
