An adaptation of American writer Isaac Asimov’s millennia-spanning saga, Foundation’s showrunner is Man of Steel and Terminator: Dark Fate writer David S. Goyer, who has been chipping away at the ambitious project since as far back as 2017. Apple greenlit the production a year later by ordering an initial season run of 10 episodes, with Asimov’s daughter, Robyn, involved as executive producer.

That by no means guarantees that this will be a successful (and more faithful) adaptation of the author’s works than the Will Smith-led I, Robot, but today’s teaser certainly makes a lasting first impression, at the very least. Give it a watch via the embed above.
