'For All Mankind' Showrunners Reveal Why They Killed Off That Major Character in the Season Finale

For All Mankind has wrapped up its penultimate season by dealing yet another devastating blow. With the Marsies trying to take back control of Happy Valley from the M-6 soldiers and Aleida (Coral PeΓ±a) desperately trying to reach her team on Titan, everything comes to a stunning conclusion when communication finally breaks through. Kelly (Cynthy Wu), Walt (Christopher Denham), and Elena (Kristina Klebe) have found life on Titan, but a critical mechanical issue forces the group to make a sacrifice. There's only enough oxygen for two people to walk back to their ship, and as the commander, Kelly decides to stay behind. On Happy Valley, the M-6 commanders have ordered a ceasefire, stopping the bloody attack on the Mars base. The season ends with a gut-wrenching final letter sent from Kelly to Alex (Sean Kaufman) on Titan before the story flashes forward, now set firmly in the 2020s. The final shot sees a mysterious, abandoned space shuttle come back to life with a cryptic message written on the screen in Cyrillic.
