With still about a week to go until the two-episode, Season 5 premiere of Hulu's Elisabeth Moss & Yvonne Strahovski-starring The Handmaid's Tale comes word that the streaming series has been renewed for a sixth and final season. "It has been a true honor to tell the story of Margaret Atwood's groundbreaking novel and chillingly relevant world, and we are thrilled to bring viewers a sixth and final season of 'The Handmaid's Tale,'" series creator, showrunner & executive producer Bruce Miller said in a statement when the news first hit out of TIFF. "We are grateful to Hulu and MGM for allowing us to tell this story, which unfortunately has remained as relevant as ever throughout its run, and are in awe of our incredible fans for their unwavering support, and without whom we never would have gotten to this point."
