Dark Matter Trailer Previews the Jennifer Connelly-Led Apple TV+ Sci-Fi Series

Apple has released a new Dark Matter trailer, giving us a look at the upcoming Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly-led sci-fi series. The first two episodes of the show are set to premiere on Apple TV+ on Wednesday, May 8, with a new episode then releasing every Wednesday through June 26.

“Hailed as one of the best sci-fi novels of the decade, Dark Matter is a story about the road not taken,” reads the show’s description. “The series will follow Jason Dessen (played by Joel Edgerton), a physicist, professor, and family man who — one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago — is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the mind-bending landscape of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of realities, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from the most terrifying, unbeatable foe imaginable: himself.”
