The Handmaid's Tale will go back to basics with a "classic" series finale that's been years in the making

The Handmaid's Tale season 6 first look: Elisabeth Moss as June Osborne.

The Handmaid's Tale season 6 brings the dystopian drama to an end on Hulu. Based on Margaret Atwood's beloved novel, the show originally pulled from details included in her award-winning book.

However, in more recent seasons, it has spanned out beyond this with the showrunners inventing more story as new episodes get developed. "We were always guided by Margaret as a beacon and a spirit guide," co-showrunner Yahlin Chang says in the new issue of SFX magazine, which features Black Mirror season 7 on the cover and hits newsstands on Wednesday, March 26. "But everything, big story wise, had to be invented."
