News For All Mankind The Fifth Season of For All Mankind Premieres in March Let’s go back to space! By Molly Templeton | Published on January 21, 2026 Screenshot: Apple TV Comment 0 Share New Share Screenshot: Apple TV Almost two years ago, For All Mankind was renewed for a fifth season. In that time, there’s only been a tidbit or two of news about the series and its new spinoff, Star City: For All Mankind. But the wait is almost over, alternate-history-space-program fans! Apple TV has just announced that the fifth season of For All Mankind premieres in just over two months. The announcement came in a short video featuring one of the most well-worn series storytelling cliches: “Everything that’s happened has led to this moment,” says Ed (Joel Kinnaman) in voiceover, as Alex Poletov Baldwin (Sean Kaufman) rides a space motorbike through a space desert. Here’s the synopsis for the new season: Season five of For All Mankind picks up in the years since the Goldilocks asteroid heist. Happy Valley has grown into a thriving colony with thousands of residents and a base for new missions that will take us even further into the solar system. But with the nations of Earth now demanding law and order on the Red Planet, friction continues to build between the people who live on Mars and their former home. Along with Kinnaman, the cast includes Toby Kebbell, Edi Gathegi, Cynthy Wu, Coral Peña, and Wrenn Schmidt. Several new folks are joining up as series regulars: the aforementioned Sean Kaufman (The Summer I Turned Pretty), Mireille Enos (The Killing), Costa Ronin (The Americans), Ruby Cruz (Bottoms), and Ines Asserson (Royalteen). For All Mankind was created by Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi; Wolpert and Nedivi are the showrunners. The 10-episode fifth season premieres Friday, March 27th, with weekly episodes through May 29th.[end-mark] The post The Fifth Season of <i>For All Mankind</i> Premieres in March appeared first on Reactor.
