April 23 (UPI) — Apple TV is giving a glimpse of the new series Star City.
The streaming service shared a trailer for the space thriller Thursday featuring Rhys Ifans (House of the Dragon) and Agnes O’Casey (Black Doves).
Star City is a spinoff set in the world of Apple TV’s For All Mankind. The show imagines the alt-history space race from the Soviet Union point of view, a timeline where the former country was the first to send a man to the moon.
“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 humankind forward,” a press release reads.
Alice Englert, Solly McLeod, Adam Nagaitis, Ruby Ashbourne Serkis, Josef Davies and Priya Kansara also star.
Star City hails from For All Mankind creators Ben Nedivi, Matt Wolpert and Ronald D. Moore. The series will have a two-episode premiere May 29 on Apple TV, with subsequent episodes released on Fridays.
