"Better never means better for everyone."
It's a chilling line, one of many that are featured in the latest trailer for The Handmaid's Tale, based on Margaret Atwood's dystopian novel of the same name.
The 10-episode series, which debuts on Hulu on April 26, takes place in a dystopia called Gilead — a totalitarian society, once the U.S., rooted in twisted religious fundamentalism. A place where women are subjugated and used only for reproduction.
Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men) stars as one of the world's few remaining fertile women, Offred. Orange is the New Black star Samira Wiley plays Moira, Offred's best friend from college and fellow handmaid-in-training, and Alexis Bledel plays Ofglen, an ally to Offred. Joseph Fiennes, Yvonne Strahovski, Max Minghella, Madeline Brewer, Ann Dowd and O-T Fagbenle also co-star.
