Super Bowl viewers are about to get a very timely glimpse at life in a dystopia.
Hulu on Friday released its Super Bowl spot for its upcoming series The Handmaid's Tale, based on Margaret Atwood's novel of the same name.
The 10-episode series, which debuts on Hulu on April 26, follows people in a dystopia called Gilead — a totalitarian society, once part of the U.S., rooted in twisted religious fundamentalism. A place where a class of women are subjugated and used only for reproduction.

Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men)stars as one of the world's few remaining fertile women, Offred.
"I had another name but it's forbidden now," Offred says in the new trailer. "My name is Offred and I intend to survive."
Orange is the New Blackstar Samira Wiley plays Moira, Offred's best friend from college and fellow handmaid-in-training, and Alexis Bledel plays Ofglen, an ally to Offred.
Joseph Fiennes, Yvonne Strahovski, Max Minghella, Madeline Brewer, Ann Dowd and O-T Fagbenle also co-star.
MGM Television produced the series.
