HANDMAID'S creator and showrunner, Bruce Miller, tell THR about the cameo, saying "We'd heard Oprah was a fan of the show, and had a story idea, and thought, wouldn't it be wonderful if... . So we asked and she said yes, and it was a lovely, easy process. The radio segment she recorded was inspired by the free radio of the Allies from WW2. It was an absolute honor to have Oprah featured on the show, and especially thrilling as she was THE ONE who presented us with the Emmy last year."

The 13-episode second season will be shaped by Offred's pregnancy and her ongoing fight to free her future child from the dystopian horrors of Gilead. "Gilead is within you" is a favorite saying of Aunt Lydia. In Season Two, Offred and all characters will fight against - or succumb to - this dark truth.
