'For All Mankind' Renewed for Season 5 and Soviet Spinoff 'Star City' Expands Franchise

Apple has renewed "For All Mankind" for a fifth season and ordered a spinoff series titled "Star City," which will explore the Soviet space program. The spinoff, created by the same team behind the flagship series, is described as a "propulsive paranoid thriller" set during the alt-history retelling of the space race. Ron Moore, the co-creator of "For All Mankind," will serve as an executive producer on the spinoff. This move comes as Apple continues to invest in high-profile content and expand its original series lineup.
