Here we go!
Dark Matter makes its global debut on Apple TV+ on May 8, 2024 with the first two episodes, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through June 26.
The new nine-episode sci-fi thriller is based on the blockbuster book by New York Times bestselling author Blake Crouch and features an ensemble cast that includes Joel Edgerton, Jennifer Connelly, Alice Braga, Jimmi Simpson, Dayo Okeniyi and Oakes Fegley.
Hailed as one of the best sci-fi novels of the decade, Dark Matter is a story about the road not taken. The series will follow Jason Dessen (played by Edgerton), a physicist, professor and family man who — one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago — is abducted into an alternate version of his life.
