The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 to set up multiple cliffhangers for the upcoming spin-off.

As The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 approaches, netizens are making predictions about how the last season will wrap up the story. While people who have read the book already know the ending, many who have only watched the show are eagerly waiting for the last Season. The Handmaid's Tale showrunner, Yahlin Chang, recently said in an interview that the sixth Season will have cliffhangers for the spin-off series The Testaments.

Chang, in an interview with TV Insider, said,

For sure, there will be cliffhangers for The Testaments, so it doesn’t conclude everything. So any fans that are left wanting more are going to get more in The Testaments, which will be great for them. But it does conclude in some very satisfying ways many of the storylines, but not every single one.

The Handmaid's Tale returns to Hulu on April 8. After its fifth Season finale in November 2022, fans have been eagerly waiting to see how June and the other handmaids finally defeat the regime and regain their power.

What to Expect from The Handmaid's Tale Season 6?

The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 will show the ultimate rebellion against Gilead's authoritarian regime. For five seasons, fans have had to see the dystopian society that reduced women to baby-making machines. Chang, in her interview with TV Insider, said that creators have taken full advantage of this being the last season to tie up loose ends in a satisfying way. It looks like the show will deliver exactly what the trailer promised in its first few seconds.

For years we've been afraid of them. Now its time for them to be afraid of us.

Season 5 of The Handmaid's Tale showed us Luke distracting authorities by getting arrested so that June can escape Canada with baby Nichole. It also showed us Serena Joy with baby Noah. The last scene of the season is a cliffhanger that puts two sides of the story right in front of each other.

The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 will have spoilers for the spin-off series, The Testaments, based on the Handmaid's Tale sequel of the same name. The sequel was published in 2019 and is set fifteen years after the events of the book, The Handmaid's Tale. It revolves around the grown-up version of baby Nichole and how she fights the regime that oppressed her mother and many other women.

So The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 will conclude most storylines of the show but not all. It will show us the big rebellion of the handmaids and common people against the commanders and the regime, but that's not the end of the story. The Testaments will pick up the story fifteen years after the rebellion to show us what happens to the beloved characters. Fans who were sad to see The Handmaid's Tale come to an end can continue to explore the story in its spin-off.
