It Starts On The Page: Read ‘The Testaments’ Premiere Script “Precious Flowers” With Foreword By Bruce Miller

Editor’s note: Deadline’s It Starts on the Page features standout drama series scripts in 2026 Emmy contention. Stepping away from Hulu’s Emmy-winning The Handmaid’s Tale and into the world of The Testaments, viewers were met with something lighter, more vibrant and youthful, a tale based on Margaret Atwood’s novel of the same name.

The Testaments is based on Margaret Atwood’s novel, which won the 2019 Booker Prize jointly with Bernardine Evaristo’s Girl, Woman, Other.
