New trailer for The Handmaids Tales final season teases the war to come

Though the hype around Hulus adaptation of The Handmaids Tale gradually faded as time went on, the shows final season looks like its going to be a sobering and timely reminder of what made Margaret Atwoods story so powerful in the first place.Though June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss) seemed ready to put Gilead behind her in The Handmaids Tales season 5 finale, a new trailer for the shows sixth season finds her back in the belly of the beast quietly rallying other women to strike back at their Christofascist oppressors. While Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd) and Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski) dont seem to know exactly how June plans to destroy everything theyve built, they can feel that theres a new subversive energy coursing through Gileads population of subjugated handmaids.That doesnt appear to be an immediate concern for Commander Joseph Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) as he achieves a new level of power within Gilead. But the trailers shots of handmaids arming themselves with switchblades makes it seem like theyre way past ready to burn everything down if thats what it takes to be free. When The Handmaids Tale first premiered in 2017, it seemed so dystopian that it was easy for some to dismiss it as pure speculative fiction. But given the ongoing push to further limit womens access to reproductive healthcare in the US, the show is probably going to feel that like even more of a plausible vision of the future when it returns on April 8th.
