The highly anticipated sixth and final season of The Handmaid’s Tale is set to premiere on April 8, 2025, exclusively on Hulu. The season will kick off with a three-episode release, followed by weekly episodes leading up to the series finale on May 27.
A recently released teaser trailer offers a glimpse into the intense and gripping conclusion of the series. In the teaser, Elisabeth Moss’s character, June Osborne, reflects on the symbolism of the red garments imposed upon the handmaids, stating:
“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.”
The final season promises to delve into June’s unyielding fight against the oppressive regime of Gilead, highlighting themes of hope, courage, solidarity, and resilience in the pursuit of justice and freedom. Key characters such as Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski), Commander Joseph Lawrence (Bradley Whitford), Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd), and Nick Blaine (Max Minghella) will play pivotal roles as the story reaches its climax.
