Production is underway on the sixth and final season of The Handmaid's Tale, starring Elisabeth Moss in the lead role. Moss made the announcement alongside distributor Hulu through a photo on Instagram that features her with a clapboard. According to the information in the clapboard, Moss also dons the hat of a director for The Handmaid's Tale finale, with Nicola Daley as cinematographer.

The show is based on Margaret Atwood's novel The Handmaid's Tale and depicts life in the dystopian Gilead. The story follows June Osbourne/Offred (Moss), a fertile woman forced to bear children for powerful commanders. Season five ends with the murder of Commander Waterford (Joseph Fiennes), leaving June to face consequences and redefine her life.

In the meantime, Commander Lawrence works with Nick and Aunt Lydia to reform Gilead and gain power. June, Luke, and Moira continue their fight against Gilead from Canada.

The series also stars Joseph Fiennes, Yvonne Strahovski, Bradley Whitford, Max Minghella, Ann Dowd, Madeline Brewer, Amanda Brugel, Sam Jaeger, and Ever Carradine. Josh Charles is the latest addition to the cast of the show.

The makers plan to release The Handmaid's Tale finale in 2025 first half.
