For as long as the streaming wars have been going on, each provider has had some wildly popular original programming. The book to screen adaptation The Handmaid's Tale is at the top of that list for those with a Hulu subscription, with the sixth and final season officially kicked off. And the cast of the long-running series spoke to CinemaBlend about just how emotional fans have been about June's story and the turmoil of Gilead.
What we know about The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 has been limited, but the stakes feel high since it's going to be the set of episodes. While some folks figure out how to watch The Handmaid's Tale final season, I had the privilege of speaking with the cast ahead of its airing. As you can see in the video above, I asked about how strongly fans have felt about the Emmy-winning series.

00:00You know, when Roe was overturned and to see women dressed in the handmaids uniforms from our show holding signs and marching like that to me was that it left me speechless.
00:15As an actor, it makes me proud to be a part of something that is the image of resistance.
00:21As a woman, it makes me want to continue to use my voice and do everything that I can to support women's autonomy over their bodies.
00:30But, yeah, that moment to me was incredible, incredible.
00:38Yeah, it's, you know, as an artist, you really hope that you can, like, what is the point of art, really?
00:46It's so, I think, to some extent that people can see their own lives represented, reflected back to them in a way that makes them feel less alone.
00:54And it doesn't have to be a literal way, you know, but it could be emotional and there could be a relationship that people feel their fear of what might happen to their children or their fear of the politics that there are.
01:03And to know that people connect, that people maybe feel less alone, that they feel that there is hope in the darkness.
01:10That is the best, really, of what art can do.
01:12And I'm really proud to be part of a show that does some of that.
01:16So often you do a job and you're just like, I don't think anybody's going to see this.
01:20I think this, I don't think this matters, guys.
01:23And we're talking about whether to put the camera, but this, nobody's going to see this thing.
01:28People see this show and they feel seen watching that.
01:33And to be some small cog in that is one of the great honors of my life.
