Sam Neill invades Apple TV Plus in the trailer for sci-fi series Invasion
Apple’s latest sci-fi epic comes from the people behind The Martian and Deadpool
Apple is doubling down on the whole large-scale science fiction thing. After creating a reasonable amount of buzz around Foundation, the long-awaited Isaac Asimov adaptation in which Lee Pace plays a very tall galactic emperor named Brother Day, the world’s most successful cell phone maker is staying in the sci-fi section. Invasion, the company’s next foray into the worlds beyond cosmos, is bringing alien beings and Spielbergian closeups back home. Set on Earth and across multiple contents, the series follows different perspectives from people around the globe as they deal with a particularly threatening and explosive alien, um, invasion. [This is where we would insert that Leonardo DiCaprio pointing meme, but sometimes, it’s more powerful not to meme]. Anyway, here’s the trailer.
