The Testaments has been renewed for a second season, just a week before the season 1 finale aired. The series, a sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, follows Agnes and Daisy as they navigate life in Gilead and beyond. The season 1 finale set up a potential alliance between the two young women, with Daisy determined to recruit her fellow Plums for the Mayday resistance.
As for the release date of season 2, no official announcement has been made. However, given that The Handmaid's Tale had a regular yearly release for its first three seasons, some fans speculate that The Testaments season 2 could arrive in 2027, assuming a similar production schedule. The show's creator has previously indicated a plan for three to five seasons.
The season 1 finale hinted that Agnes, Daisy, and Shunammite will be central to season 2. Most of the main cast is expected to return, including Chase Infiniti (Agnes), Lucy Halliday (Daisy), Ann Dowd (Aunt Lydia), and Rowan Blanchard (Shunammite). Elisabeth Moss is also anticipated to reprise her role as June Osbourne, and O-T Fagbenle has teased a possible cameo as Luke.
Characters like Commander Weston and Commander Judd may also return, while the Grove parents are unlikely to appear again, except in flashbacks. Showrunner Bruce Miller confirmed that other characters from The Handmaid's Tale could make surprise appearances, as they remain committed to the cause of freeing others from Gilead.
