Overview
- Hulu officially renewed The Testaments for a second season on May 20, citing strong week‑to‑week audience gains across Hulu and Disney+.
- The season one finale framed the series toward a youth‑led resistance storyline that showrunners say will drive future seasons without resolving the central conflict.
- Hulu reported the show has surpassed 45 million hours streamed globally to date, with an early surge that included more than 11 million hours in the first eight days.
- Showrunner Bruce Miller confirmed scripts for season two are being written but no production start date or premiere window has been announced and industry outlets are tentatively projecting a 2027 return.
- Producers are weighing casting and scheduling constraints including keeping teenage roles age‑appropriate, and Margaret Atwood and Handmaid’s Tale talent remain involved in consultative or guest capacities.
