Apple TV+'s For All Mankind is returning for a fourth season and a new in-show promo for the fictional Helios Aerospace has been released by the streaming platform. For All Mankind season 4 will be released on November 10.
The sci-fi drama imagines an alternate Earth where the 1960s space race between the United States and the Soviet Union never ended and it was the Soviet Union who landed on the Moon before the U.S.
Each season is set in a decade that follows the moon landing, with season 1 set in the 1970s, season 2 set in the '80s, and season 3 set in the 1990s. Season 4 will move the show into the 2000s.
The upcoming season will presumably continue the story on Mars and the evolving dynamic between NASA, the Soviet Union, and the private aerospace company, Helios.
The series stars Joel Kinnaman (The Suicide Squad), Edi Gathegi (X-Men: First Class, The Blacklist), Wrenn Schmidt (Boardwalk Empire, Nope), Krys Marshall (Supergirl), Cynthy Wu (Now We're Talking) and Coral Peña (The Post).
Joining the show in season 4 as regulars are Toby Kebbell (RocknRolla, Fantastic Four), Tyner Rushing (Under the Banner of Heaven), Daniel Stern (Dilbert), and Svetlana Efremova (The Americans, Spinning Out).
In a big clue for what season 4 has in store, Kebbell is joining the show as a former oil worker on Earth who takes on a new job, looking for the precious resource on Mars.
Why shoot for the moon when you can shoot for Mars? Start your future at Helios. For All Mankind returns November 10 on Apple TV+.
Rocketing into the new millennium in the eight years since Season 3, Happy Valley has rapidly expanded its footprint on Mars by turning former foes into partners. Now 2003, the focus of the space program has turned to the capture and mining of extremely valuable, mineral-rich asteroids that could change the future of both Earth and Mars. But simmering tensions between the residents of the now-sprawling international base threaten to undo everything they are working towards.
The ensemble cast returning for Season 4 includes Joel Kinnaman, Wrenn Schmidt, Krys Marshall, Edi Gathegi, Cynthy Wu and Coral Peña along with new series regulars Toby Kebbell, Tyner Rushing, Daniel Stern and Svetlana Efremova.
