Hulu’s acclaimed dystopian drama series The Handmaid’s Tale is finally getting ready for its sixth and final season. The production, which made a big impact with its first five seasons, had to take a break due to the ongoing strikes in the US. Here are The Handmaid’s Tale season 6 details.

Date given for The Handmaid’s Tale final season

According to the latest reports, the production team will start production on season 6 in the summer of 2024 and will premiere in 2025. It should be noted that the dystopian drama series has actually been quiet for a while. The previous season faced delays due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, and the final season has also become uncertain.

Series producer Bruce Miller expressed his excitement to start working on the final season. “We’ve been blown away by our audience’s passion and commitment to The Handmaid’s Tale. We are excited to bring Margaret Atwood’s story to the audience.”

While fans of the series are eagerly awaiting the finale, it should be noted that the story will not end. The series, based on the book series by author Margaret Atwood, will continue with a production based on the novel The Testaments. This new series will take place 15 years after the events of season 6 of The Handmaid’s Tale.

For those who haven’t seen it before, The Handmaid’s Tale tells the story of a society called Gilead and the measures it takes against population decline. Women, who are considered public property, are asked to take part in the repopulation of society. The cast includes Elisabeth Moss, Yvonne Strahovski and Serena Joy.

Lead actress Elisabeth Moss said that June will continue to fight against Gilead in season 6. Let us remind you that the last season of the acclaimed series will air in 2025 and will officially end.
