For All Mankind Season 5 Renewal, Russia Spin-off Ordered at Apple TV+
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Apple TV+ has officially ordered the For All Mankind Season 5 renewal
for its long-running sci-fi adventure series. This comes after over
three months since the show had wrapped up its 10-episode fourth
season, which currently holds a perfect 100% Certified Fresh score on
Rotten Tomatoes.
"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," Apple TV+ executive Matt Cherniss said in a statement. "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."
For All Mankind Gets Its First Spin-off
In addition to the Season 5 renewal, Apple TV+ has also greenlit
Star City, the first spin-off series to For All Mankind, which will
explore the world of the Soviet space program. Described as a
propulsive and paranoid thriller, the Russia-set spin-off also hails
from the original show's creators Ronald D. Moore, Ben Nedivi, and
Matt Wolpert.
"Star City 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," reads the logline. "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."

Wolpert, with˙Nedivi and Wolpert set as showrunners. The series takes
place in an alternate timeline, which explores what would have happened
if the global space race never ended. It stars Joel Kinnaman, Wrenn
Schmidt, Krys Marshall, Cynthy Wu, Coral Pe¤a, Edi Gathegi, Toby
Kebbell, Tyner Rushing, Daniel Stern and Svetlana Efremova.
