American Horror Story subjected us to Murder House and a haunted summer camp, dragged us to a Florida freak show, and booked viewers into a hotel with a high mortality rate, with a fresh narrative and setting each season.
Warning: Potential The Handmaid s Tale spoilers ahead
The new series takes us back to the setting of a nightmarish future America where the totalitarian government, Gilead, has forced the country s few remaining fertile women to become slaves to the ruling elite. Elisabeth Moss stars as one such handmaid , June, who must be subservient to the high-ranking Commander Fred Waterford, played by Joseph Fiennes.
Season 4 picks up from the cliff-hanger ending of the previous series. That finale saw June get shot but carried to safety by her fellow handmaids after helping scores of children escape to Canada.
Viewers can expect to see the show s heroine continue to strike back against Gilead as a fierce rebel leader, but season four s trailer suggests the risks June will take for the cause are set to bring unexpected and dangerous new challenges.
