After a hiatus of nearly two and half years, Elisabeth Moss starrer The Handmaid’s Tale is finally back with its sixth and last installment. The dystopian television series created by Bruce Miller revolves around the world of Gilead.

The story follows the journey of June Osborne, who is captured and assigned as the Handmaid to Commander Fred Waterford and his wife, Serena Joy, thanks to her fertility. Upon its release, the series garnered significant critical attention, making it a must-watch for all.

But it’s the final moments that truly leave a mark—after a tearful goodbye with Luke, who gets arrested. June boards a refugee train to safety only to face the last person she expected: Serena, holding her child.
