Critically-acclaimed space drama For All Mankind returns for a third season on 10 June

If you're a fan of the US-Russia space race, enjoyed the first two seasons of the Apple Original series For All Mankind, or both, it's time to strap in once again because Apple has just announced that the show has been renewed for yet another action-packed season.

According to the release, the third season of the critically-acclaimed space drama, which will be available for streaming on Apple TV+ starting 10 June is set during the early 90s, approximately 10 years after the events of the second season. This time, the endpoint of the space race between the US and the Soviet Union is the Red Planet: Mars, and no, there won't be only two competitors, but three. Apparently, the release also hints that a third, yet to be announced party also has its eyes set on this new interplanetary frontier, adding even more tension into the already-steaming pressure-cooker. 

On the development end, Emmy Award nominees Matt Wolpert and Ben Nadivi will serve as For All Mankind's showrunners, while also handling executive production alongside series creator and Emmy Award winner Ronald D. Moore, Maril Davis of Tall Ship Productions, David Weddle, Bradley Thompson, and Nichole Beattie.

As for the cast, Joel Kinnaman, Shantel VanSanten, Jodi Balfour, Sonya Walger, Krys Marshall, Cynthy Wu, Casey Johnson, Coral Peña, and Wrenn Schmidt will all reprise their roles for this exciting third season alongside newcomer Edi Gathegi, who will be playing the ambitious and ever-charismatic visionary Dev Ayesa.
