The first trailer for Foundation Season 2 has been released – and it comes with a launch window for the next part of the hit sci-fi epic.
Posted to the various Apple TV Plus social media channels on January 4, the first teaser of Foundation season 2 teases, er, what to expect leading up to the return of the Apple TV Plus show. Plus, the trailer confirms when one of the best Apple TV Plus shows will return to our screens: mid-2023.
Check out the first footage from Foundation season 2 below:
The teaser opens with a montage of clips from the first season of the sci-fi series, which ended with Salvor Hardin (Leah Harvey) meeting her mother Gaal Dornick (Lou Llobell) for the first time, as well as the revelation that everything doesn’t exist. . does not fit Emperor Cleon’s cloning program.
Just when you start to think the trailer only contains footage you’ve seen before, it cuts to scenes from the next season of Foundation. It’s here, around 1 p.m., that Apple confirms that its mind-blowing fan-favorite TV show will premiere this summer (that’s winter for those of you in the Southern Hemisphere).
There’s not much we can tell from the footage from Season 2, other than the fact that the second Seldon Crisis – events that will test the mettle of the Foundation and its citizens – will form the backbone of the next batch of episodes of the show. We also see Salvor being greeted overwhelmingly as a messianic figure by some cloaked individuals, plenty of action-packed moments (usually with Gaal), and tons of spectacularly grand sci-fi shots. Oh, and a closing shot of what appears to be a new, alien life form appearing aboard a starship. Oh oh.
The season 2 first-look teaser and launch window announcement are the first official news we’ve received about it since February 2022. At the time, Apple released the first image from the show’s second year, which featured Lee Pace’s Brother Day with a fraught conversation with Jared Harris’s AI version of Hari Seldon. In addition to the image, Apple confirmed a host of new cast members for the series’ next appearance, including the actors who will play major characters in Bel Riose and Hober Mallow.
Foundation Season 2 is produced for Apple TV Plus by Skydance Television, with David S. Goyer returning as showrunner-executive producer. Robyn Asimov, Alex Graves, David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Bill Bost are also back in executive production capacities.
Here’s that key launch date again: Foundation’s second season will debut exclusively on Apple TV Plus in Q2 2023.
