Final Season of 'The Handmaid's Tale' Premieres, Rekindling the Series' Original Brilliance

The sixth season follows June Osborne's escape to Alaska, reigniting rebellion against Gilead and setting the stage for a spin-off.

The sixth and final season of 'The Handmaid's Tale' debuted on April 8, 2025, after a two-and-a-half-year hiatus.
The storyline centers on June Osborne's journey from Canada to Alaska with her daughter Nichole, encountering former adversary Serena Joy, now traveling with her baby Noah.
Family tensions deepen as June's husband, Luke, is arrested in Canada, and her daughter Hannah remains indoctrinated in Gilead's regime.
Critics praise the new episodes for restoring the series' dramatic intensity, focusing on rebellion and infiltration within Gilead's oppressive system.
'The Testaments,' a spin-off set 15 years later, is confirmed to continue the story after the series finale.
