Hulu has announced that The Testaments, its long-awaited follow-up to The Handmaid’s Tale, will debut April 8. The series will launch with its first three episodes, followed by weekly releases.

The streamer shared the news on social media, teasing fans with the message: “ Ready to enter your plum era? The Testaments premieres April 8 on @Hulu and with #HuluOnDisneyPlus.”

Based on Margaret Atwood’s novel of the same name, The Testaments is described as a coming-of-age drama set within the rigid world of Gilead. The story centers on two teenage girls—Agnes (Chase Infiniti), who is devout and obedient, and Daisy (Lucy Halliday), a newcomer from outside Gilead’s borders. As they are thrust into Aunt Lydia’s elite training school for future wives, their growing connection begins to challenge everything they’ve been taught.

The official synopsis explains: “As they navigate the gilded halls of Aunt Lydia’s elite preparatory school for future wives, a place where obedience is instilled brutally and always with divine justification, their bond becomes the catalyst that will upend their past, their present, and their future.”

The Handmaid’s Tale concluded its six-season run in 2025. In The Testament, Ann Dowd reprises her role as Aunt Lydia, joined by a cast that includes Mabel Li, Amy Seimetz, Brad Alexander, Rowan Blanchard, Mattea Conforti, Zarrin Darnell-Martin, Eva Foote, Isolde Ardies, Shechinah Mpumlwana, Birva Pandya, and Kira Guloien.

Bruce Miller, who developed The Handmaid’s Tale for television, returns as creator, showrunner, and executive producer. Mike Barker also executive produces and directed the first three episodes, alongside a larger producing team. The series is produced by MGM Television.

The classic sitcom Malcolm in the Middle is making a comeback with a limited revival on Hulu, titled Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair. The four-episode event is scheduled to premiere April 10, 2026, and Hulu has unveiled the official trailer for the series.

Set nearly two decades after the original series ended, the story reunites the chaotic Wilkerson family when Malcolm is pulled back into their orbit after years of keeping his distance. In the trailer, Frankie Muniz’s Malcolm insists, “My life is fantastic now. All I had to do was stay away from my family!” — but his attempt at a peaceful life quickly unravels when his parents demand he attend their 40th wedding anniversary celebration.

Many familiar faces are returning for the revival, including Bryan Cranston as Hal and Jane Kaczmarek as Lois, along with Christopher Kennedy Masterson (Francis), Justin Berfield (Reese), and Emy Coligado (Piama). The role of Dewey has been recast, with Caleb Ellsworth-Clark stepping in for former actor Erik Per Sullivan.

The new storyline also introduces several fresh characters, including Malcolm’s daughter Leah, played by Keeley Karsten, his girlfriend Tristan portrayed by Kiana Madeira, and his youngest sibling Kelly, played by Vaughan Murrae.

The original sitcom aired on Fox Broadcasting Company from 2000 to 2006 and was created by Linwood Boomer, who returns as a writer and executive producer for the revival. Cranston also serves as an executive producer alongside several longtime collaborators.

All 151 episodes of the original “Malcolm in the Middle” are available to stream on Disney+ and Hulu.

Hailee Steinfeld and her husband, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, have announced the arrival of their first child—a daughter.

“Our baby girl has arrived!!” they shared in a joint message posted to Steinfeld’s Substack on April 2. “We’re feeling incredibly grateful and blessed and savouring these early moments. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes.”

The news comes months after the pair revealed they were expecting back in December. Steinfeld introduced the pregnancy with a touching video showing Allen kissing her baby bump as they stood together in the snow. She also reflected on the moment in her Beau Society newsletter, including it among her “favorite moments from this year, both big and small” as she celebrated her 29th birthday.

Steinfeld and Allen, who began dating in 2023, tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Santa Barbara, California, on May 31. Looking back on the year, Steinfeld described it as transformative, writing, “28 was wild, beautiful, humbling, and full of the kind of moments that sneak up and change you quietly,” while noting how deeply it reminded her “of how precious life is.”

Steinfeld has also shared glimpses of her emotional journey into motherhood through her newsletter. In one post, she described a profound shift in perspective as she prepared for her baby’s arrival, writing, “While tuning in, I’ve experienced this surreal, full-body awareness that our world is about to expand in beautiful ways. We’re getting ready to meet someone we already love so much.” She has also embraced personal touches along the way, including passing down a meaningful nickname. In January, she revealed a sweater stitched with “Baby Beau,” inspired by her own childhood nickname—something her parents once used when deciding between naming her Hailee or Bailee.

Lily Collins is stepping into the role of screen legend Audrey Hepburn in an upcoming feature centered on the making of the 1961 classic ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s.’

Best known for playing Emily Cooper on Emily in Paris, Collins has long drawn comparisons to Hepburn for her classic features and style. Collins, 36, confirmed the casting in an Instagram post, sharing her excitement after nearly a decade of development. “It’s with almost 10 years of development and a lifetime of admiration and adoration for Audrey that I’m finally able share this,” she wrote. “Honored and ecstatic don’t begin to express how I feel.”

The project draws inspiration from the New York Times bestseller “Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M.: Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany’s and the Dawn of the Modern Woman” by Sam Wasson, which chronicles how the beloved romantic comedy came together — from early development and casting to production challenges and its lasting cultural impact. The book highlights key figures involved in the film, including writer Truman Capote, costume designer Edith Head and director Blake Edwards, while examining how the movie reshaped Hollywood, fashion and modern femininity.

The screenplay will be written by Alena Smith, with the film currently in development through Collins’ production banner, Case Study Films. Over the years, Collins has frequently spoken about her admiration for Hepburn. In a 2014 interview with Marie Claire, she praised the icon’s “timeless features, elegance, and charm will always represent the epitome of grace.”

Disney and Pixar have unveiled the official trailer for Toy Story 5, marking the return of Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the beloved gang seven years after the fourth film reshaped their world. The latest chapter in Pixar’s longest-running series arrives in theaters June 19.

In Toy Story 5, the toys are facing a challenge that feels especially timely: screens. Bonnie’s attention is captured by a new Lilypad tablet (voiced by Greta Lee) forcing her toys to confront what their role is in a childhood increasingly centered on technology. Jessie (Joan Cusack) rallies the toys as they attempt to win back Bonnie (Scarlett Spears). Woody (Tom Hanks), who chose a life of independence with Bo Peep (Annie Potts) at the end of the last film, reconnects with the group via walkie-talkie and eventually rejoins the action —with his return sparking some playful teasing from Buzz (Tim Allen) and the others. Familiar faces including Forky (Tony Hale), Slinky Dog, Hamm, Trixie and an entire squad of Buzz Lightyears join the effort to keep Bonnie engaged in imaginative play.

Much of the voice cast also returns, including John Ratzenberger, Blake Clark, Wallace Shawn, Kristen Schaal and Keanu Reeves. Following the deaths of Don Rickles and Estelle Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head are now voiced by Jeff Bergman and Anna Vocino. Ernie Hudson steps in as Combat Carl, a role previously voiced by Carl Weathers, and John Hopkins takes over Mr. Pricklepants from Timothy Dalton.

Andrew Stanton directs Toy Story 5 alongside Kenna Harris, guiding the franchise into its next phase. The film follows a period of renewed success for Pixar, after Inside Out 2 dominated the global box office in 2024 with more than $1.5 billion in ticket sales.
