How to watch season 4 of The Handmaid’s Tale online from anywhere - Android

It's been almost two years but the wait is finally over for fans of Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale and we have all the details on how you can watch new episodes from season 4 of the show on TV or online.

The Handmaid's Tale is adapted from the 1980s novel of the same name by Margaret Atwood and the show first premiered on Hulu's streaming service back in 2017. The series takes place following the Second American Civil War and is set in a totalitarian society called Gilead in what was formerly the United States.

As fertility rates have collapsed due to STDs and environmental pollution, women that can still bear children are highly sought after by the ruling elite. These handmaids as they're called are used as the sexual slaves of the ruling elite and are forced to wear long red dresses, heavy brown boots, and a large white coif to conceal them from public view.

June (Elizabeth Moss) is the main character of the show and one of Gilead's handmaids. She struggles to survive as a handmaid for the powerful Commander Fred Waterford and his resentful wife. Eventually, though, June decides to make her escape but life on the run proves to be just as difficult as life in Gilead. Season 3 of the show ended on a cliff-hanger with June being shot while trying to help over 100 children escape to Canada and the new season of the show picks up right where it left off.

Whether you're a huge fan of the book or just want to see if June and the resistance can finally defeat Gilead, we'll show you how to watch season 4 of The Handmaid's Tale from anywhere in the world.
