The fourth season of the critically admired science fiction drama series ‘For All Mankind’ is all set to start streaming on Apple TV+ from 10th November. The series explores the concept of reimagined alternate histories where the USSR had supposedly beaten the USA in their space race to the Moon back in the 1960s. The third season is set in the 90s and revolves around the efforts of three major space players – USA, Russia, and a private entity with the mission to land first in Mars.
Although the show’s fifth season is yet to be officially greenlit by the makers, its creators Ben Nedivi and Matt Wolpert have spilled the beans about Season-5. They have revealed that the fifth season’s pre-production is yet to kick-off and the writing team hasn’t begun working on the next season yet. The delay was because of the writers’ strike in the US.
A show like ‘For All Mankind’ is a big deal for diehard sci-fi genre fans because of the dearth of good quality content in the realms of science fiction / alternate history. So, the curiosity quotient around the show’s forthcoming Season-4 is also quite high. In line with its intra-season ten-years’ time gap, the fourth season will ostensibly take place during the 2000s period. But it looks like fans of ‘For All Mankind’ would have to wait a little longer for Season-5.
All the seasons of ‘For All Mankind’ have received good feedback so far. The show currently holds a 90% critics’ score on reviews aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes. Moreover, the series boasts of an impressive user rating of 8.1/10 on IMDb. ‘For All Mankind’ seasons 1-3 are streaming in India on the Apple TV+ OTT platform. In case you are a sci-fi genre fan, then you definitely should watch the show.
