The Handmaid’s Tale season 2: What will happen to Offred?

Cinema 26 July, 2017

Season 1 of The Handmaid’s Tale has just ended on OCS, but what will happen next?

That’s it, after several weeks of broadcast, the first season of The Handmaid’s Tale has just ended on OCS and we suggest you to look a little bit on the continuation. Indeed the series has already been renewed and season 2 should be broadcast in 2018 on Hulu. Obviously watch out for spoilers if you have not seen the last two episodes of the season. In the final minutes of the final season, Offred was taken by Gilead’s men following his rebellion against Aunt Lydia, who asked all of them to lynch Ofdaniel. Serena Joy protests since she has just learned that Offff is pregnant and Nick tells Offred to trust the men and go with them without protest.

Difficult to speculate thanks to the original source since it is exactly in the same way that ends the novel of Margaret Atwood on which is based the series. Yet in light of the events of the last few minutes, we can still imagine what might happen next. The fact that Nick tells Offred to trust Gilead’s men suggests that he might actually be part of the resistance and that the Mayday organization is far more extensive than one might think. By pretending to be an Eye, Nick would have the perfect cover for a double agent. Now that Moira has arrived in Canada and she has found Luke, she will be able to tell him what happened to June.

One imagines that Luke will not leave his wife in the hands of Commander Waterford and that he will try to release her since he does not know she was taken away. Finally, since Offred finally got pregnant, it is very possible that Serena Joy and even Fred try to intervene to recover her to be able to save “their” child. In addition to these elements, the showrunner Bruce Miller has already explained that season 2 would explore more the functioning of Gilead and the consequences of the rebellion of Handmaids against the government as well as the colonies, while remaining focused mainly on the history of Offred. Finally Elisabeth Moss said that the sequel would be much darker, as you say we are already afraid. While awaiting new information, our verdict of The Handmaid’s Tale is still available.
