Here's the first official teaser for Season 2 of Apple TV+'s series Foundation, direct from YouTube: I cannot wait for this! I'm a big fan of the first season, very excited to see how epic these next episodes get.

Newcomers in this next season include Isabella Laughland as Brother Constant, a cleric whose job is evangelizing for the Church of the Galactic Spirit on Outer Reach plus Kulvinder Ghir, Sandra Yi Sencindiver, Ella-Rae Smith, Dimitri Leonidas, Holt McCallany, Mikael Persbrandt, Rachel House, and Nimrat Kaur. Hari Seldon Lee Pace as Brother Day Lou Llobell as Gaal Dornick Leah Harvey as Salvor Hardin Laura Birn as Demerzel Terrence Mann Cassian Bilton & Alfred Enoch. In Season 2, the Foundation will face the Crisis of Religion, as leaders start to use words of the divine to control the hopeless people who struggle after the fall of the Empire.

Based on the novels by Isaac Asimov, Apple TV+'s Foundation series chronicles a band of exiles on their monumental journey to save humanity and rebuild civilization amid the fall of the 'Galactic Empire'. We’ll take it! The original books take place over a period of centuries and millennia, so there’s plenty of material for them to work with here.'It's time Empire had a reckoning.' Apple has debuted an official teaser trailer for Season 2 of their epic sci-fi series Foundation - now set to launch in July this summer. However, the very idea that the Empire could collapse is slightly upsetting to the powers that be (Lee Pace, et al.) and they attempt to prevent Seldon’s plan from being actioned.įor all intents and purposes, the galaxy-spanning sci-fi drama appears to be Apple’s answer to Game of Thrones. The fall of this bloated, decadent Galactic Empire is all but assured, but it is the hope of Seldon and his followers to prevent this new dark age from lasting 30,000 years and shorten it to a few thousand if they can. With the premiere date of September 24 just around the corner, Apple TV+ is finally lifting the curtain on its epic adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s towering science fiction series Foundation.įor those unfamiliar with Asimov’s highly influential tale, the Foundation novels track the collapse of a massive Empire (think the Fall of Rome on a galactic scale) into a dark age, and the efforts of a group of people to “shorten the darkness” by following blueprint laid out the brilliant scientist Hari Seldon (Jared Harris).
