Apple TV+'s new sci-fi thriller is its creepiest show yet, or so trailer suggests
Science fiction meets psychological horror in a new Apple TV+ show starting in February
· T3Apple TV+ is rapidly becoming the best streaming service for science fiction, with a decent library of top notch series. For All Mankind, Severance, Invasion, Foundation and Silo are each highly rated by critics and viewers alike. Now we're about to get another show that could be added to that list.
Constellation stars Noomi Rapace (Prometheus, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) and Breaking Bad's Jonathan Banks in something of a departure for Apple. As well as being a sci-fi series, it's a psychological thriller.
And, from the newly-released trailer, it looks like there'll be a few jump scares along the way.
Starting on Wednesday 21 February, when the first three episodes will be available on Apple TV+, the show will run for eight episodes in total.
It has been created and written by Peter Harness (Wallander, Doctor Who) with a number of award nominated directors taking turns at the helm. They include Michelle MacLaren (The Morning Show), Oliver Hirschbiegel (Downfall), and Joseph Cedar (Footnote). Other actors to look out for include James D'Arcy (Oppenheimer) and Barbara Sukowa (Voyager).
Rapace plays astronaut Jo who, after a disaster on her space station, returns to Earth to find not everything is as it should. Some of her life has changed or is missing, while her daughter doesn't seem to be the same person.
Is it all in her mind or is the more to space travel than we previously thought?
You can find out this February.
