The Mule is here, and we’re out of time. When discussing all-consuming intergalactic epics that transport viewers to a universe of breathtaking dimensions, it’s hard to surpass “Foundation.” This Apple TV+ prestige sci-fi series is built upon the seminal works of Isaac Asimov and features Emmy-nominated stars Jared Harris and Lee Pace, along with the acclaimed actress Lou Llobell.
A stunning new trailer has just been released for “Foundation” Season 3, which launches on July 11. The premiere episode marks the beginning of an ambitious production shepherded by ace executive producer David S. Goyer, known for “The Crow,” “Blade,” “Dark City,” and “The Dark Knight Trilogy.” Each subsequent chapter of the ten-episode outing will debut every Friday, culminating in a climactic season finale on September 12. This dense, richly conceived adaptation demands and deserves your full attention, amply rewarding audiences with its careful worldbuilding and captivating, multi-faceted characters.
Set 152 years after the tumultuous events of Season 2, this expansive run continues the noble efforts of an emboldened band of exiles as they embark on an exhausting quest to save humanity and restore civilization following the inevitable fall of the Galactic Empire. Hari Seldon’s Foundation has grown significantly beyond its humble origins, while the grand Cleonic Dynasty’s Empire has slowly diminished. As these two great galactic powers call a truce and enter into a fragile alliance, a new enemy emerges—a formidable interstellar warlord known as “The Mule”—who has staked a claim over the universe with aims to conquer it entirely. As this dangerous game unfolds, involving a stark dance of fates, Hari Seldon, Gaal Dornick, the Cleons, and Demerzel must decide who will ultimately emerge victorious and who will face destruction.
“The Mule is your battle, Gaal,” warns Jared Harris’s Hari Seldon in this jaw-dropping new preview. “It’s my job to ensure you’re prepared.”

Bell, Synnøve Karlsen, Cody Fern, Tómas Lemarquis, Alexander Siddig, Oscar-winner Troy Kotsur, and Pilou Asbæk.
