Earlier, we also wrote about how good Apple TV+'s sci-fi series (more precisely, Sony produces the sci-fi series For All Mankind) is, which is about what would have happened if the Soviets had been running the Space Race at the time they won Americans will not be the first to land on the moon. The fourth season of the series, which is considered hard science fiction within the genre (i.e. can be explained scientifically and logically), ended in January, and although the final episode left a fair number of open questions, it has only now been officially announced that a sequel will be announced. coming.
Various reportsApple has not only ordered a fifth season, but has also simultaneously begun developing a spin-off, which will focus specifically on the Soviet space program and be called Star City. The sister series goes back to the first season, when the Soviets first set foot on the moon, and then shows what it all looked like from the point of view of the characters behind the Iron Curtain – the astronauts, scientists, politicians and spies. The new project is produced by the same people, namely Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert and Ben Nedevi, who have also been responsible for the parent series so far.
The creators also said that each season they want to show the Soviet side of the story more and more, for example the story of the center in the forest near Moscow where astronauts are trained.
The release date of season 5 is still in question, because since 2019, the first episode of the new season has always been released in a different month, sometimes in November, sometimes in February, but it was also in June.
