An epic battle is set to ensue in Season 2 of the Apple TV+ series Foundation.
A new trailer released Tuesday gives a look at the upcoming second installment, which takes place more than a century after the Season 1 finale as tension mounts throughout the galaxy. Watch the full trailer above.
In Season 2, as the Cleons unravel, a vengeful queen plots to destroy Empire from within. Hari, Gaal and Salvor discover a colony of Mentalics with psionic abilities that threaten to alter psychohistory itself. The Foundation has entered its religious phase, promulgating the Church of Seldon throughout the Outer Reach and inciting the Second Crisis: war with Empire.
Each season of the Foundation adaptation chronicles the stories of four crucial individuals transcending space and time as they overcome deadly crises, shifting loyalties and complicated relationships that will ultimately determine the fate of humanity.
Based on Isaac Asimov’s award-winning books and starring Jared Harris, Lee Pace, Lou Llobell and Leah Harvey, the second season will have 10 episodes.
