Featurette for Apple TV+'s Sci-Fi Series EXTRAPOLATIONS Offers a Closer Look at Its Crucial Story
Apple TV+ has released a featurette for its upcoming event sci-fi limited series Extrapolations. The video offers a closer inside look at the “crucial story” that the series will tell. It certainly looks like it will take audiences on an epic journey.
Extrapolations is described as “a bracing drama,” and it comes from writer, director, and executive producer Scott Z. Burns (Contagion, An Inconvenient Truth, The Report). It introduces “a near future where the chaotic effects of climate change have become embedded into our everyday lives.”
In the series, “Eight interwoven stories about love, work, faith and family from across the globe will explore the intimate, life-altering choices that must be made when the planet is changing faster than the population. Every story is different, but the fight for our future is universal. And when the fate of humanity is up against a ticking clock, the battle between courage and complacency has never been more urgent. Are we brave enough to become the solution to our own undoing before it’s too late?”
The project also comes complete with a star-studded cast that includes Meryl Streep, Sienna Miller, Tobey Maguire, Kit Harington, Daveed Diggs, Edward Norton, Diane Lane, Tahar Rahim, Yara Shahidi, Matthew Rhys, Gemma Chan, David Schwimmer, Adarsh Gourav, Keri Russell, Marion Cotillard, Forest Whitaker, Eiza González, Murray Bartlett, Indira Varma, MaameYaa Boafo, Hari Nef, Heather Graham, Michael Gandolfini, Cherry Jones, Gaz Choudhry, Ben Harper, Judd Hirsch and Neska Rose.
The featurette offers additional insight on the series, what inspired it, and it offers some additional story details. Extrapolations is set to be released on March 17th, 2023.
