*Hulu has unveiled the official trailer for the highly anticipated sixth and final season of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” promising an epic conclusion to the dystopian saga.
The Emmy-winning series, led by Elisabeth Moss, returns on April 8, launching with three episodes, followed by a weekly rollout leading to its May 27 finale.
Season five left viewers with a tense and unexpected ending, as June Osborne (Moss) and her longtime adversary, Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski), found themselves alone together on a train filled with Gilead refugees. Reflecting on the cliffhanger, Moss, who also serves as an executive producer and director, told The Hollywood Reporter, “It’s actually a pretty positive ending for the show and the season, which we don’t usually do. It’s a cliffhanger … but there’s something positive about it. Of course, of all the people that would be on the train is this person who is her other half, the other half of this experience.”
As the show resumes after a two-year break, the trailer teases shifting alliances and looming conflicts with June taking up arms against the oppressive regime of Gilead. Watch the new trailer above and get ready for the thrilling conclusion of her fight for justice.
