The Handmaid's Tale Boss Teases "Rebellious" Season 3

Welcome to the resistance, June

Details about The Handmaid's Tale Season 3 remain thin, seeing as it hasn't even started production yet, but we're still on the hunt for teases and spoilers about what comes next!

TV Guide caught up with executive producer Bruce Miller on the red carpet of the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards, and what he had to say about June's (Elisabeth Moss) upcoming storyline has us hungry for a closer look at the underground resistance within Gilead. "I think overall Season 3 is a lot more rebellious, outwardly rebellious than Seasons 1 and 2. I think June's taken a lot, and I think it's time for her to give back some," Miller said.

Last we saw June, she was handing her newborn baby off to Emily (Alexis Bledel) so they could escape to Canada, while she stayed behind to try to find her other daughter, Hannah (Jordana Blake). It was a bold move, but does that mean June's officially joining the resistance? Miller didn't confirm how active a part June will take in the fight against Gilead (though we hope she gives them everything she's got and more), but he did hint that her mindset will have changed drastically when we return to her story in Season 3.

"I think I'm most excited by what happens to June now that she's chosen to go back to Gilead, that she isn't forced," Miller said. "That's a huge, powerful choice. What changes in your psychology when you've chosen to be in a place like that and you've chosen to stay on the inside and fight as opposed to go to the outside? I think that's a very different psychology so that's been very interesting."

The Handmaid's Tale Seasons 1 and 2 are currently streaming on Hulu.
