AppleTV+ Renews 'Dark Matter' for Season 2

AppleTV+ has today renewed its original drama series Dark Matter for a second season. An episode count and premiere date window were not immediately announced.






The drama stars Joel Edgerton, Jennifer Connelly, Alice Braga, Jimmi Simpson, Dayo Okeniyi and Oakes Fegley.

Blake Crouch developed the drama based on his novel of the same name. He executive produces with Edgerton, Matt Tolmach and Jacquelyn Ben-Zekry. Sony Pictures Television, Matt Tolmach Productions and Mountainside Entertainment produce.

"The thought-provoking and gripping Dark Matter has quickly become a global hit, capturing audiences' imaginations and making it a beloved and integral part of Apple's world-class sci-fi lineup," said Matt Cherniss, Head of Programming, AppleTV+. "We are thrilled to continue our collaboration with Blake Crouch, our partners at Sony and the rest of the creative team and cast - led by the remarkable Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly - on a new season that will captivate viewers with more twists and turns as we dive deeper into the mysteries of the multiverse."

"Thanks to everyone who tuned-in for season one - book fans and new fans - and of course our partners at Apple and Sony, my amazing producing partner, Matt Tolmach, our tremendous cast and crew, and the great city of Chicago - you were so good to us," added Crouch. "In the process of writing and filming season one, we discovered that there's so much more story to tell, and we've only scratched the surface of these characters as they fight for survival and to find their way home through a landscape of mind-bending realities. See you in the Box!"
