So, I was checking some Ann Dowd interviews as she is promoting her movie Mass (absolutely recommended btw) and found this little treasure.
She was asked about her involvement in The Testaments and she said she has talked about it with Warren Littlefield (one of the top executive producers) and while she doesn't have any info about the spin off itself, she says she will hopefully be involved AND...
That there will be 2 seasons of Handmaid's Tale and then The Testaments will follow!!
Check what she said in my Instagram post here
She also said that she already read Season 5's first script and she describes it as 'thrilling' she says those who watch Handmaid's will be very happy with it.
What do you think about ending it with Season 6? I think it's a smart decision... There's a 15 year gap between the first book (first season) and The Testaments, the show has covered around 5 years with seasons 2, 3 and 4.. There's still story to tell to give June and the other characters a fitting farewell and make a smooth transition to the sequel.
