The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6: Plot and Everything We Know So Far

Alexis Bledel and Joseph Fiennes will not be a part of the sixth season. About the final season-ending, Bruce Miller, in a statement, said, ‘We have so many women through history who didn’t have names, who were never identified. They were there for a while. They told their story, and this is The Handmaid’s Tale – she told it. ‘And then they disappear, faceless, into the mist of history. And that’s what the problem is: there are too many women out there who are just Offred and are just the Handmaid. ‘But that’s the story we’re telling. In order to make it really this story it starts when that kid is taken from her. And that’s when she turns into a Handmaid. And it ends when she disappears off of our radar. ‘But she doesn’t disappear from the world. She’s a real human woman. Just because she’s not on our radar, doesn’t mean she doesn’t exist.’

What to Expect From The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6

Three crucial questions are anticipated to be resolved in the sixth and last instalment of the series. Did June make it to a safe place? Would she and Nick be able to work everything out? What are the chances that someone will be able to bring Gilead down for good one day?

Talking to Hollywood Reporter about season 5 and season 6, Elisabeth Moss revealed, “Because this season (season 5) was so much about June trying on different hats and trying to figure out: “Am I the villain? Am I the victim? Am I a murderer? Am I a mother? Who am I? Who is the enemy? Fred’s gone; is Serena the enemy? Yes. Wait, maybe she’s not — am I the enemy?” She’s spent this season trying to figure out who she is and who she’s going to be the rest of her life, and it’s kind of the perfect lead-up to a final season where, without spoiling anything, it’s time for June to figure out who she is going to be for the rest of her life and where the real fight is, and what she has to do to win the real fight.”

Is A Handmaid’s Tale Spin-off In The Works?

Deadline revealed late last year that Bruce Miller has been developing a spinoff to the popular series in addition to season six. The spin-off might be called The Testaments and will be based partially on Margaret Attwood’s 2019 same-name sequel novel.
