The Handmaid's Tale S1-6

In the sixth and final season of The Handmaid’s Tale, June's unyielding spirit and determination pull  her back into the fight to take down Gilead.

Elisabeth Moss returns to her Emmy-winning role as June, alongside fellow Emmy winners Ann Dowd, Bradley Whitford, and Samira Wiley, and Emmy nominees Yvonne Strahovski, Max Minghella, O-T Fagbenle, and Madeline Brewer. Emmy nominee Josh Charles (The Good Wife’s Will Gardner) joins the cast this season. 

Based on Margaret Atwood’s dystopian classic, The Handmaid’s Tale has been hailed as “more relevant than ever’ by MSNBC and is one of the most anticipated TV shows of 2025, according to everyone from Deadline to The Hollywood Reporter,  Variety to Vanity Fair.

The first five seasons won 15 Emmys, with an 83% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an 8.4/10 score on IMDb.

Seasons 1-5 of The Handmaid's Tale are ready to binge on Showmax, with new episodes of Season 6 arriving every Wednesday.
