Apple TV has unveiled first-look photos for “Star City,” the new series expanding the world of “For All Mankind.” From creators Ben Nedivi, Matt Wolpert and Ronald D. Moore, the series will debut with two episodes on Apple TV on May 29, running through July 10.
The eight-episode series “is a propulsive paranoid thriller that takes us back to the key moment in the alt-history retelling of the space race — when the Soviet Union became the first nation to put a man on the moon,” reads the official logline. “But this time, we explore the story from behind the Iron Curtain, showing the lives of the cosmonauts, the engineers, and the intelligence officers embedded among them in the Soviet space program, and the risks they all took to propel humankind forward.”
The series will star Rhys Ifans (“House of the Dragon”), Anna Maxwell Martin (“Motherland”), Agnes O’Casey (“Black Doves”), Alice Englert (“Bad Behaviour”), Solly McLeod (“House of the Dragon”), Adam Nagaitis (“Chernobyl”), Ruby Ashbourne Serkis (“I, Jack Wright”), Josef Davies (“Andor”) and Priya Kansara (“Bridgerton”).
Variety first reported that “For All Mankind” would be getting a spinoff back in 2024 when the show was renewed for its fifth season, which will premiere on March 27. The alternate history series first premiered in 2019, and stars Joel Kinnaman, Toby Kebbell, Edi Gathegi, Cynthy Wu, Coral Peña and Wrenn Schmidt, alongside other series regulars.
Wolpert and Nedivi serve as showrunners and executive produce alongside Moore and Maril Davis of Tall Ship Productions, as well as Andrew Chambliss and Steve Oster. “Star City” is produced for Apple TV by Sony Pictures Television.
