Apple TV+ Renews FOR ALL MANKIND, Orders Spinoff STAR CITY

Apple TV+ has renewed FOR ALL MANKIND for a fifth season. Additionally, the FAM universe is expanding with a new spinoff, STAR CITY, from Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi. (Nedivi and Wolpert will serve as showrunners.)

“Our fascination with the Soviet space program has grown with every season of FOR ALL MANKIND,” said executive producers Matt Wolpert and Ben Nedivi in a statement. “The more we learned about this secret city in the forests outside Moscow where the Soviet cosmonauts and engineers worked and lived, the more we wanted to tell this story of the other side of the space race. We could not be more excited to continue building out the alternate history universe of ‘For All Mankind’ with our partners at Apple and Sony.”

“With each new season, FOR ALL MANKIND continues to build out a fascinating world and capture global audiences through high quality storytelling that has been so skillfully developed by Ron, Matt and Ben,” said Matt Cherniss head of programming for Apple TV+. “There is so much to explore and, we along with our partners at Sony, can’t wait to dive into this next chapter of the engrossing FOR ALL MANKIND universe.”

According to the streamer, STAR CITY “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. 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 humanity forward. “Star City” is created by Matt Wolpert, Ben Nedivi, and Ronald D. Moore. Nedivi and Wolpert serve as showrunners and executive produce alongside Moore and Davis of Tall Ship Productions.”
