Praise be! Women take up switchblades for a revolution in first look at “Handmaid's Tale” final season

Take one down, pass it around: The handmaids are arming themselves for a revolution in the first look at the final season of The Handmaid's Tale.

In the new footage, Elisabeth Moss' June says via voiceover, "They believed that these garments that they put on our bodies told the world who we are. To mark us, they put us in red, the color of blood. They forgot that it’s also the color of rage. The dress became our uniform. And we became an army."

To that end, the teaser shows handmaids walking and standing in formation, and in one shocking scene, passing switchblades to each other, one by one, in perfect synchronicity (and in a church, no less).

Elsewhere in the clip, Yvonne Strahovski's Serena can be heard saying, “Something big is about to happen" as she cradles her baby. Shots of a wedding, a body being burned, handmaids running at night, and a very angry Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd) are shown as a subtitle card tells us "the revolution is here."

“Though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we will fear no evil,” concludes June.

In a logline released with the teaser on Wednesday, fans can expect the final season of the Hulu hit to once again follow June, whose "unyielding spirit and determination pull her back into the fight to take down Gilead. Luke and Moira join the resistance. Serena tries to reform Gilead while Commander Lawrence and Aunt Lydia reckon with what they have wrought, and Nick faces challenging tests of character. This final chapter of June's journey highlights the importance of hope, courage, solidarity, and resilience in the pursuit of justice and freedom." Praise be!
