All September long, IGN is highlighting the best TV coming your way in the 2019-2020 season. Today we’re spotlighting For All Mankind, one of several high-profile Apple TV+ shows that will be available when the new streaming platform launches on November 1. Executive produced by Battlestar Galactica’s Ronald D. Moore, For All Mankind “imagines what would have happened if the global space race never ended and the space program remained the cultural centerpiece of America’s hopes and dreams.” Featuring an ensemble cast – led by Joel Kinnaman as astronaut Ed Baldwin, Shantel VanSanten as his wife, Karen, Michael Dorman as Ed’s copilot, Gordo Stevens, and Sarah Jones as Gordo’s wife, Tracy – the series presents an alternate history in which Russia beats the US to the moon, exploring the historical, technological, and political implications that follow.
