Apple TV is on a roll. The streamer is now undeniably the premier destination for sci-fi fans seeking engaging, well-crafted thrillers. With heavy hitters like Silo, Severance, and Pluribus, Apple TV is delivering every year. However, production for these shows can take a long time, sometimes years between seasons, and one of the major ways to bridge the delays is by having a consistent output of new shows. That also covers the gap left by those that are ending, like For All Mankind and Silo.

Porsche Rennsport Reunion VI, Laguna Seca, 2018-09-28

In the face of a deadly pandemic, a gruff, ex-military grieving father is tasked with delivering a young girl to a group of scientists intent upon experimenting on her for the good of humanity. Meanwhile, monsters lurk. This is not The Last of Us, this is The Passage. And before any accusations of plagiarism arise, The Passage is based on a series of books that predate The Last of Us.

The Matrixis hands-down one of the most influential science-fiction filmsever made. The Wachowskis' 1999 classic completely changed the genre with its groundbreaking visual effects, unforgettable action sequences, and a premise that instantly hooked audiences. Watching Keanu Reeves as Neo discover the truth about reality for the first time remains one of the greatest movie experiences ever.

Although recognizable brands still drive audiences to theaters, the promise of an epic space odyssey on the big screen is often enough to persuade audiences to take a chance on an original film not based on any pre-existing character or video game, as seen with one of 2026's smash hits, Project Hail Mary. Between Interstellarand the Dune movies, sci-fi and space movies are as fashionable as ever, and they routinely amount to box office titans amid the glut of IP.

One of the most addictive genres on television remains science fiction. From space stories to technology thrillers, the genre has provided an opening for viewers to tap into worlds far removed through stories rooted in science. Now, some sci-fi films are so brazen and fantastical that we know they can't be real. They play by their own rules. But for hard sci-fi, they use elements grounded in facts.

Following the massive success of shows such as Severence, Foundation, and Silo, to name just a few, Apple TV's streak of producing excellent sci-fi shows continued this week with a new title. The streamer's latest offering premiered with two episodes and a perfect 100% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. The premiere date coincided with the Season 5 finale of Apple's first-ever sci-fi show, For All Mankind. This is no coincidence, of course, given that the show happens to be a spin-off of For All Mankind. Like the original, it unfolds in an alternate history where the Space Race never ended. This time, audiences will get to experience the political power games from the Soviet perspective.
