As part of EW’s cover story on the new season of The Handmaid’s Tale (which begins April 25 on Hulu), here are some exclusive images of our favorite heroines in our most unfavorite place of Gilead.

Moss’s portrayal of the handmaid Offred/June on the series has won her accolades from critics and her costars. “She’s such a superb heroine for today,” says Cherry Jones, who plays June’s mother this season. “Her soul feels different in everything she does. Even with the same face and same body with these subtle changes she morphs her soul into whomever she’s playing. It’s thrilling.”
