Handmaids were the remaining fertile women, forcibly impregnated by Commanders.
June is basically blowing on the spark of decency in all of these characters, Whitford said.
Shes always believed in the good of people, to her detriment sometimes, the two-time Emmy winner said.
Sometimes people arent good and dont do the right thing.
This season is so much about choice choice whether to go towards the light or go towards the dark.
The choices they make are sometimes surprising and you wont see them coming for sure.
Serena gave birth to baby Noah in Season 5, with Junes help.
Junes faith in Serenas change has worn off [on Serena].
In Season 6 we will see a little bit more of that, but lets not hold our breath.
Chang added that Serena desperately wants Junes forgiveness for making her a handmaid and assisting in Freds rape.
Thats probably too much to ask, but June does consider Noah innocent.
In Season 6, June has so much power over Serena, Chang said.
Theyre enemies and friends, and theres so much love and hate between them.
Its such a privilege as a writer to delve into that.
Whitford lamented that the show became more relevant with every season.
We dont just get a democracy.
We dont just get a decent society.
We have to make it every day.
He hopes the show inspires real-world action.
Season 6 ofThe Handmaids Talebegins April 8 with three episodes.
