AppleTV+ has today renewed its original drama series Foundation for a third season. An episode count and premiere date window for the new season were not immediately announced.
The drama stars Lee Pace, Jared Harris, Lou Llobell, Leah Harvey, Laura Birn, Cassian Bilton, Terrence Mann, Isabella Laughland, Kulvinder Ghir, Ella-Rae Smith, Holt McCallany, Rachel House, Nimrat Kaur, Ben Daniels and Dimitri Leonidas.
David S. Goyer developed the drama based on the novels by Isaac Asimov. He executive produces with Alex Graves, David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Bill Bost and Robin Asimov. Skydance Television produces.
"I'm thrilled Apple has given us the opportunity to continue chronicling Asimov's pioneering galactic saga," said Goyer. "This time, the stakes for Foundation and Empire are even higher as the Mule takes center stage, along with fan-favorites Bayta, Toran, Ebling, and Magnifico Giganticus."
"We have all been incredibly impressed with the ambitious, action-packed and imaginative adaptation that David and the rest of this gifted creative team and cast have brought to life with this premium sci-fi series from day one," added Matt Cherniss, Head of Programming, AppleTV+. "To watch Foundation become such a global hit has been beyond exciting with audiences around the world continuing to be captivated week after week by this dramatic and compelling journey to save humanity. We can't wait for everyone to experience what is in store for characters old and new in season three."
