Summary Elisabeth Moss reveals the importance of June and Serena's relationship in The Handmaid's Tale season 6.

Moss aims to create a final season that fans will appreciate, focusing on June and Serena as their intertwining stories come to a close.

The Handmaid's Tale star Elisabeth Moss has opened up about the key to season 6's story, revealing how intertwined June's story is with another character. Season 6 will be the final batch of episodes for the Hulu original series, bringing her story within this dystopian society to an end. The final episodes will begin filming later this year, and will wrap up the important stories of its many characters throughout the series.

Speaking with Josh Horowitz on Happy Sad Confused, Moss opened up about the most key element of The Handmaid's Tale season 6, that being the relationship between June and Serena.

Starting at 28:13, Moss discussed how fans viewed the relationship between both characters, describing how much she agreed with the importance of their stories being so intertwined. The actor also described the importance of making a final season fans will appreciate, hinting at what's next for the core pair of the series. Check out what Moss had to say below:

I think the reason I'm aware of [how much fans like June and Serena together] is I agree. I love it.... The reason why I get it is because I agree and I love it too. The reason why I think the fans have picked up on it and gravitated toward it is because we put it there. We love the two of them together, I love it. I've always loved Serena as a character and what Yvonne [Strahovski] does with her, and we've always seen the parallels between them, so it's only just so gratifying when the audience gets it and picks up on it and likes it. But to answer your question - and I've experienced this on TV before, especially with Mad Men, there is a back-and-forth I think that happens with the fans and the makers of the show. It's not like you write to it, but you do have an understanding and awareness of what's working and what's not. I'm not making the show for anyone else but the fans. I'm not making the show for the network or this person. You're making it for the people who love it. And, so, because of that, you are aware of, of course, what they respond to and what they don't respond to. And I agree with them responding to June and Serena so wholeheartedly, and truly believe that it is their show. Like, I know it's June's story and it's The Handmaid's Tale but I really believe that it's June and Serena's story. And we're very much going down that road in the final season. I'm the first person, even as a director, to be like, "Forget June, let's focus on Serena for this episode." I just think that. Yvonne said it so well when she said, "There's no Serena without June, and there's no June without Serena." And that's so true. And so to me, the parallel stories, I love that part of the show so much. So I totally agree with the fans on this one.

More to come...
