Apple TV+ has announced a season two renewal for sci-fi thriller, Dark Matter starring Joel Edgerton as a physicist abducted into an alternate version of his life.
Based on the Blake Crouch novel it also features Jennifer Connelly, Alice Braga, Jimmi Simpson, Dayo Okeniyi and Oakes Fegley.
“Thanks to everyone who tuned-in for season one — book fans and new fans — and of course our partners at Apple and Sony, my amazing producing partner, Matt Tolmach, our tremendous cast and crew, and the great city of Chicago — you were so good to us,” said showrunner and author Blake Crouch. “In the process of writing and filming season one, we discovered that there’s so much more story to tell, and we’ve only scratched the surface of these characters as they fight for survival and to find their way home through a landscape of mind-bending realities. See you in the Box!”
“Making Dark Matter was a longtime dream, and I’m so proud to see Blake’s vision come to life and to connect with so many people,” said executive producer Matt Tomach. “Seeing the Dessens’ journey resonate with audiences has been extremely gratifying, and we can’t wait to bring more of this world — and others — to life in season two. Huge thanks to Apple TV+, Sony and our amazing cast and crew. Here we go!”
“The thought-provoking and gripping Dark Matter has quickly become a global hit, capturing audiences’ imaginations and making it a beloved and integral part of Apple’s world-class sci-fi lineup,” said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. “We are thrilled to continue our collaboration with Blake Crouch, our partners at Sony and the rest of the creative team and cast — led by the remarkable Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly — on a new season that will captivate viewers with more twists and turns as we dive deeper into the mysteries of the multiverse.”
Crouch serves as creator, executive producer, showrunner and writer alongside executive producer Tolmach. In addition to starring, Edgerton serves as executive producer. Jacquelyn Ben-Zekry is also an executive producer.
