“The response we’ve seen to ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ in just one week since its premiere has been absolutely incredible.
“As we continue to expand our strong slate of original programming, ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ is exactly the type of gripping and thought-provoking storytelling we want to bring to viewers.
