The Handmaid’s Tale Season 4 Update: Fans can’t wait for the fourth season of The Handmaid’s Tale to actually hit their screens. It’s been a year and a half since the last episode broadcast, and it seems like the wait is going to carry on for a couple of months. In the meantime, Bruce Miller, the producer of the season, has announced what to expect in the biggest iteration of the show ever.
Season three ended with a rather intense cliffhanger, as June (played by Elizabeth Moss) was shot by a guard during her attempt to free 86 children from Gilead’s authoritarian rule by making them cross the border into Canada.
In the last few scenes, the audience saw her being led away by her fellow handmaids. She could be seen her eyes shut, giggling, longing for her family and the lives she assisted with saving.
In spite of the fact that watchers know from the season four trailer that June is alive, they don’t have the foggiest idea what sort of impact she’ll have when she stays in Gilead.
The Handmaid’s Tale Season 4: Update
As per Showrunner Miller, it seems like she might be engaged in a fight among Gilead and Canada over lost youngsters.
“The pot is bubbling,” Miller said. “You can envision that this would most likely begin a war.”
“It’s 86 children, but at a time where the birth rate is so much smaller, it might as well be 86,000 children being taken from a country.”
The public authority of Gilead will not be satisfied with these most recent turns of events, both in June and across Canada.
“I think it was extremely succulent, the global components of the show,” Miller said to The Hollywood Reporter.
“In certain regards, you fail to remember, or it slips my mind, on the grounds that the show is so cozy thus much about June, it’s a displaced person show, and it’s a show about international concerns.
“Everybody in Canada on our show is an evacuee. That is exactly the thing they’re living, evacuee life.”
Speaking on how topical the show is at the moment, he added: “Refugees have been in the headlines for the last five, ten years, and that’s the path you’ve seen: what happens when you cross the border?
“For Emily (Alexis Bledel), Moira (Samira Wiley), and now for Rita (Amanda Brugel), these people are living with the question of how much Gilead brought them to Canada,” he said.
“That’s what Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd) said: ‘Gilead is within you,’ which means you’re carrying it around.”
Might this be why June has not yet managed to liberate itself from Gilead?
Speaking of what audiences would expect from her character, Miller said, “It couldn’t be more different.
“The biggest thing I would tell you is, don’t try to guess at all, because it really is one of those seasons.
“June is going into a very interesting world, she’s on the run, she’s got women with her who she feels responsible for,” he added.
