Elisabeth Moss reflects on bidding farewell to 'The Handmaid's Tale'

Elisabeth Moss has opened up about the emotions of saying goodbye to The Handmaid’s Tale, which spanned seven years from 2017 to 2025.

In an interview with Hello!, the two-time Emmy winner candidly discussed her experience of filming the feminist science fiction series.

"It's surreal and emotional, knowing that this is the end; I've loved playing this character,” she said.

The Hollywood actress portrayed the character of June Osborne, who was forced into a servitude as the Handmaidi in dystopian society, in the series and also served as director and producer of the series.

"It's been a privilege not only to be on this journey as an actor, but also to have been given the chance to direct. It's been a dream job and I'm going to miss everybody so much,” she added.

Before concluding, Elisabeth Moss shared, "There were tears, but not so much from me; I was directing, and I'm also an executive producer, so it didn't feel as though it was the end to me. I still had a lot of work to do. Now it's starting to sink in. It's emotional."

The Handmaid’s Tale's last episode is scheduled to be released on May 27, 2025.
