Reed Morano will direct and exec produce the first three episodes. Atwood is on board as a consulting producer on the property, which was adapted as a feature film in 1990 starring Natasha Richardson, Faye Dunaway and Robert Duvall.

3. Calendar marked!

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]The timing is very appropriate, too, now that the real-life theocrats, sociopaths, and misogynists will be pretty well entrenched by the time it premieres. I wonder how the series will affect people unfamiliar with the original story....
