Constellation: release date, cast, trailer and everything you need to know
Apple TV+ is making a name for itself with some stellar sci-fi content with the likes of alternate-history drama For All Mankind and Godzilla spin-off Monarch Legacy of Monsters. Next on Apple’s blockbuster TV slate is Constellation, a new original series that blends elements of sci-fi, mystery and drama.
Billed as a “conspiracy-based space adventure,” the series looks set to be an unsettling psychological thriller that explores both the cosmos and the human psyche. It follows an astronaut who returns to Earth after a disaster in space and finds herself in a living nightmare.
“People see things up there, and when they get back they go crazy,” one woman says in the haunting series trailer.
