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.”

For All Mankind is created and executive produced by Moore, Nedivi, and 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 Peña, Edi Gathegi, Toby Kebbell, Tyner Rushing, Daniel Stern and Svetlana Efremova.
