Apple TV+ is still relatively new in the streaming industry, and despite having made a name for themselves by producing quality content that people talk about to no end, the Apple-owned streaming service has produced some shows that don’t get talked about much, but not because they are bad, but because they are overlooked. On one hand, Apple TV+ has produced extremely popular shows like Ted Lasso and Severance; on the other hand, it has brilliant but nowhere near as popular shows like Drops of God and Slow Horses. That’s why we decided to compile a list of all the brilliant shows that have been overlooked by the masses.

After launching into the overcrowded streaming industry, Apple TV+ has surprised everyone by giving the audience one brilliant series after another and most of the original shows by Apple TV+ are of the sci-fi genre. From the brilliant For All Mankind, which came out in the early days of Apple TV+ to its most recent sci-fi series Dark Matter, these Apple TV+ shows have garnered a huge amount of fan base. So, we thought of compiling a list of the best sci-fi you can watch on Apple TV+ right now.

For All Mankind is an alternate history sci-fi drama series created by Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi. The Apple TV+ series is set in an alternate history where the United States lost the global space race and it also...

Exclusive: Fresh off the back of her jury prize win in Monte Carlo, we can bring you first look images of Unorthodox star Shira Haas in yes TV’s Night Therapy.

Night Therapy will launch on the Israeli Network on June 30 and yes Studios is selling around the world. It won Haas the special jury prize as last night’s TV fest drew to a close, while the show was nominated for best drama but lost out to Channel 4’s The Gathering. Another image can be viewed below.

Created by Raanan Caspi, Night Therapy is a psychological drama starring Yousef Sweid and Haas (Captain America), plus Lucy Ayoub, Yaakov Zada Daniel and Firas Nassar, all of whom have starred in Fauda.

The show tells the story of Louie (Sweid), an Arab-Israeli psychologist struggling to raise his two children after the suicide of his Jewish-Israeli wife.

Exclusive: After spending 21 years at A3 Artists Agency — and Abrams Artists Agency, as it was formerly known — veteran talent agent Sharon Paz has transitioned to management with the launch of the L.A.-based Paz Talent.

Clients joining her at her new company include Peri Gilpin (Frasier), Luke Tennie (Shrinking), Firas Nassar (Invasion), Boris McGiver, Erik Laray Harvey (Godfather of Harlem), Chipo Ching (Black Cake), Sasson Gabay (Shtisel), Alon Aboutboul (Snowfall), Josh Bitton (The Pacific), Brad Beyer (Thank You for Your Service), and Caroline Clay (Grey’s Anatomy).

Paz is one of myriad A3 alums to have found their next destination following A3’s dissolution, on which we were first to report. Most recently serving there as Senior Agent, she started in the mailroom at Abrams in 2003, working her way up the ranks as an assistant in the theatrical department, before being promoted to agent in 2007. A natural fit at Abrams,...

This exclusive clip from season two of Invasion teases danger closing in on Luke and his family, revealing more about the Hunter Killer alien forms. Invasion, produced by Simon Kinberg, is praised as a gripping, must-watch sci-fi series with a grand scale and a standout performance from Golshifteh Farahani. Season two promises an all-out war as the aliens escalate their attacks, with resistance groups and the World Defense Coalition fighting back against the invaders.

We’ve gotten our hands on an exclusive clip from the second season the hit Apple TV+ series, Invasion, with the footage teasing episode six ahead of its debut on the streaming platform on Wednesday, September 27. The footage follows one of Invasion's lead characters, Luke (Azhy Robertson), as he senses danger is edging ever closer around his family and the group they're traveling with. It all ends with a closer reveal of some of the Hunter Killer alien forms,...

Invasion season 1 introduced the powerful alien claw, which emitted frequencies that affected the aliens' vibrations and allowed Aneesha to part the corrosive alien substance, saving her family. The alien claw serves as a communication tool, enabling Luke to speak to the aliens in their own language and reverse their frequencies, as seen in the woods and hospital scenes. In Invasion season 2, the alien claw's power is once again demonstrated as it possesses Luke, emitting an anti-frequency that repels the aliens. The true purpose of the claw remains unknown, but it will play a vital role in the eventual victory against the aliens.

Apple TV+'s Invasion sees the Malik family in possession of a powerful, otherworldly weapon - but win Invasion, where did Luke find the claw? Created by Simon Kinberg, Invasion drew criticism in its first season from some critics who cite its slow-burn narrative as a far cry...

Invasion Season 2 is finally here and it’s just as action-packed as the first season. Created by Simon Kinberg and David Weil, the Apple TV+ series picks up a few months after the first season’s events and it shows the aliens escalating their attacks on the humans turning it into an all-out war.

The first season of Invasion tells the story of an alien invasion in a very grounded realistic way with many of its characters having very different backgrounds. Apple TV+ renewed Invasion nearly two years ago and after all that wait we finally got a new batch of episodes.

Invasion Season 2 – Episode Guide (When are the Episodes Coming Out?)

Season 2 of Invasion consists of ten episodes in total and it premiered with its first episode on Apple TV+ on August 23, 2023. Check out all of the episodes’ release dates and titles below:

Apple TV+'s Invasion season 2 follows the aftermath of an alien invasion and the perspectives of numerous characters. The second season reveals that Caspar and Hinata are still alive within the alien hive mind, setting up the story for the rest of the season. Invasion season 2 consists of 10 episodes, with new episodes premiering every Wednesday until the finale on October 25, 2023.

Apple TV+ is in the midst of airing Invasion season 2, and its release schedule for the remainder of 2023 is pretty straightforward. The science fiction television series tells the story of an alien invasion on Earth and highlights the perspectives of various people from different parts of the world as the creatures descend upon the planet. The first season ended with the aliens defeated, thanks to Caspar Morrow's handy psychic abilities, and the world celebrating its liberation from the outside threat. However, the conflict was far from over, as the season...

Invasion season 2 returned on August 23, 2023, after a successful first season, and the cast and crew filmed in multiple locations worldwide. The filming locations for the show included New York City, London, Morocco, Japan, Kent, and South Africa. The production team utilized real-world settings to depict different characters' perspectives of the alien invasion, showcasing the diversity of the show's story and the global scope of its filming locations.

Invasion, created by Simon Kinberg and David Weil, returned for its second season on August 23, 2023, following a successful first outing in late 2021, and we are exploring every filming location that the cast and crew utilized for both seasons. The Apple TV+ science fiction drama television series explores the different perspectives of an alien invasion on Earth. The show travels between continents, from Asia to North America, so it makes sense that the production would take place in multiple locations around the world.

The premiere season of the Apple TV+ series Invasion (read our review Here) started airing in October of 2021 and wrapped up its ten episode run in December of that.

Invasion season 2 is set to make its debut on August 23rd – and with that date just a few weeks away, a trailer for the new episodes have arrived online! You can watch it in the embed above.

Created by Simon Kinberg and David Weil, Invasion is set across multiple continents and is described as a sweeping, character-driven science fiction drama series that follows an alien invasion through different perspectives around the world. Season 2 picks up 121 days after the invasion started.

Exclusive: Unorthodox star Shira Haas has boarded yes TV’s latest series, a psychological drama about an Arab-Israeli psychologist struggling to raise his two children after the suicide of his Jewish-Israeli wife.

Haas, who is also starring in Captain America: New World Order, is returning to her native Israel for 10-parter Night Therapy, which has just entered production.

Created and written by Raanan Caspi and directed by Gabriel Bibliowicz, Haas will play a computer genuis who rarely leaves her home. She joins a cast consisting of lead Yousef Sweid (Game of Thrones), with whom she starred in Netflix’s Unorthodox, and three Fauda actors – Lucy Ayoub, Yaakov Zada Daniel and Firas Nassar.

Sweid plays Louie, who decides to shift his practice to receive patients at night following the tragedy. Through the gateway and magic of the late clinic hours, and flashback scenes where Louie acts as an unseen observer to their problems,...

This post contains spoilers for "Invasion" season 1.

Hold on to your humanity, because "Invasion" season 2 is on its way. The Apple TV+ series' combination of epic high-stakes action and intensely personal human stories was clearly successful enough for Tim Cook's streamer to give co-creators Simon Kinberg and David Weil another run of episodes. Apple renewed "Invasion" for season 2 ahead of the season finale back in 2021, with Kinberg saying at the time, "I'm super excited about what we're planning for season 2, expanding our universe in the most intimate and epic ways."

Intimacy and epicness was the Usp of "Invasion" season 1, and while not every critic was convinced — turns out the alien invasion is a languorous affair for some — Apple obviously felt differently. Or at least, enough viewers did that the company felt it was worth renewing. And why not? Though it's undeniably a slow burn, that's kind of the point. Kinberg...

Apple TV+ is heading down to San Diego Comic-Con for the first time, with a huge spotlight on its genre series including See, Severance, For All Mankind, Mythic Quest, Invasion and Foundation.

Apple TV+’s original series panels at San Diego Comic-Con International will include:

Inside Severance with EP and director Ben Stiller, creator and EP Dan Erickson and cast members Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Tramell Tillman, Dichen Lachman and Jen Tullock who’ll share “innie” secrets from season one.

The Endeavor Content series follows Mark Scout (Scott), who leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in “work-life balance” is called into question as Mark finds himself at the center of an unraveling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work… and of himself.

The fight for survival will continue on Apple TV+. The streaming service has renewed the Invasion TV series for a second season. The sci-fi show launched in October and its finale airs on Friday.

“Invasion” has been renewed for Season 2 at Apple.

The news comes ahead of the sci-fi drama’s Season 1 finale, which will debut on the streaming service on Dec. 10. Set across multiple continents, “Invasion” follows an alien invasion through different perspectives around the world. The series stars Golshifteh Farahani, Shamier Anderson, Shioli Kutsuna, Firas Nassar, Billy Barratt, Azhy Robertson, Tara Moayedi, Daisuke Tsuji and Sam Neill.

“I’m profoundly grateful to Apple for being so supportive every step of the way, and trusting us to make a deeply human, emotional alien-invasion story,” said series co-creator and executive producer Simon Kinberg. “And most of all I’m thankful to our amazing fans, without whom we wouldn’t have this opportunity to continue the invasion. I’m super excited about what we’re planning for season two, expanding our universe in the most intimate and epic ways.”

The aliens are back for more after Apple TV+ renewed drama series Invasion for a second season.

The streamer has picked up the sci-fi series from Simon Kinberg and David Weil for a sophomore run ahead of the Season 1 finale, which airs Friday.

It is the latest renewal at Apple, which recently handed Truth Be Told a third season and Foundation for a second season.

Sam Neill plays Sheriff John Bell Tyson, a weathered rural lawman on the verge of retirement. Shamier Anderson is Trevante Ward, an extraordinary soldier stationed in Afghanistan. Golshifteh Farahani portrays Aneesha Malik, first generation Syrian immigrant, wife and mother living in Long Island. Firas Nassar is Ahmed Malik, Aneesha’s husband and a Syrian immigrant and successful businessman. Shioli Kutsuna plays Mitsuki, an intelligent member of mission control in Japan’s space program Jasa. Billy Barratt, Azhy Robertson, Tara Moayedi and Daisuke Tsuji also star.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you haven’t watched the first three episodes of “Invasion,” Apple Plus’ new drama that premiered Friday, Oct. 22.

Despite its ominous title, “Invasion” makes a slow burn out of revealing its basic premise. You’d know more about the new drama by reading its logline — “the series follows an alien invasion” — than by watching its first three episodes, which dropped Oct. 22 on Apple TV Plus. Though there’s something — or some thing? — creeps its way around the world by leveling buildings, smashing space stations, and giving kids nosebleeds, “Invasion” keeps its cards close to the chest. Rather than so much as utter the word “alien” in these initial episodes, “Invasion” focuses on the global ripple effects of increasing panic — which might be fine, if it also did a decent job developing its many characters along the way.

From co-creators Simon Kinberg (“The Martian”) and...

"What are you going to do?" "Make contact." Apple has revealed a second official trailer for their thrilling new sci-fi series titled Invasion, that is clearly "inspired" by H.G. Wells' classic novel "War of the Worlds". Following multiple storylines across different continents, Apple TV+'s Invasion takes a global look at how one alien invasion would affect us all.

Aliens have been covered in the media for years, the forthcoming Apple TV+ drama, Invasion, looks like an epic tale of what happens when various incidents across the world have a bigger meaning.

The streamer today unveiled the trailer for the series, which is a new 10-episode science fiction drama series from Academy and Emmy Award-nominated writer/producer/director Simon Kinberg and David Weil (Hunters).

The streamer describes the series as "sweeping" and "character-driven," which are both right up my street when it comes to projects of this nature.

The project was directed by Emmy Award nominee Jakob Verbruggen, will make its global debut on Apple TV+ with the first three episodes on October 22, 2021, followed by new episodes weekly, every Friday.

The new series hails from Simon Kinberg and David Weil and is set across multiple continents as citizens across the globe struggle to deal with the titular event, which at first presents as smaller and more manageable issues.

“My fellow citizens of the world, what I have to say to you is not something I was ever prepared to say. As many of you know by now, we are suffering from inexplicable and seemingly unrelated incidents ranging from power outages to the destruction of infrastructure and homes,” the president says in the trailer, which you can watch below.

But what was once thought of as being individual incidents very quickly are realized to be connected and being caused by something “not of our Earth,” she continues.

Soon it will come to light that this...

“What is being visited upon our Earth… is not of our Earth.” That ominous declaration is made by the president of the United States in the full trailer for Apple TV+’s Invasion, embedded above.

Apple has unleashed the first trailer for its upcoming series Invasion. The show stars Sam Neill in the lead role, with Oscar and Emmy nominee Simon Kinberg heading things up behind the scenes. Apple describes the show as a sweeping, character-driven series. As we can see from the trailer, life on Earth is going to be disrupted in a big bad way by some alien invaders. What do they want? At this point, it's unclear. But what is clear is that humanity is in no way ready to deal with the consequences of such a grand event.

The trailer opens with a view of a happy family, going through their morning routine. Things seem normal enough at first. But some ominous voiceover, courtesy of Sam Neill, kicks in that allows an unsettling vibe to creep in, even as we are fed more images of life progressing around the world, seemingly without issue.

"Until today, all these signs... Maybe this is the point. It's the point to all of this... We would finally have our stand." Apple has unveiled the first official trailer for a thrilling new sci-fi series titled Invasion, that is "inspired" by H.G. Wells' classic novel "War of the Worlds". It's not an adaption, per se, but takes that idea and expands into something completely new and exciting. "Hold on to your humanity." Following multiple storylines across different continents, Invasion takes a global look at how one alien invasion would affect us all.

Set across multiple continents, the series follows an alien invasion through different perspectives around the world.

Najwa Najjar charts an uneven course in her latest film as a road trip takes a couple on a journey into their families' past, as her attempts to underpin her relationship drama with a history lesson become confusing in the end.

Even before they set foot in the elderly car they will use to make the trip, it seems the relationship between Palestinians Salma (Mouna Hawa) and Tamer (Firas Nassar) may well have reached the end of the road. After five years of marriage, Salma wants a divorce and the pair are heading from the West Bank to Israel to complete the paperwork. The power play between the two is indicated economically by Tamer's insistence that he drives the car, even though he knows he will have to give the keys to Salma at the checkpoint as she is the only one authorised to drive a car with Israeli plates.

“Between Heaven and Earth” by the Palestinian filmmaker Najwa Najjar is structured like a road movie with an unusual pair setting off on a journey and of course, meeting various colorful characters on their way. However, nothing can be easy in a conflict-torn territory, so do not expect a joyride. An ironic dramedy with time gives room to a psychological drama and even bits of a mystery thriller. Middle East politics, which was present also in the backdrop of the previous films of the director, is like a ghost, hunting the everyday life and preoccupying troubled hearts and souls of the protagonists.

“Between Heaven and Earth” is screening at the London Palestine Film festival.

Salma (Mouna Hawa) and Tamer (Firas Nassar), residents of Ramallah in the West Bank, want to divorce, and to deal with court proceedings they need to visit Israel. Salma is a Palestinian from Nazareth holding Israeli citizenship,...

Simon Kinberg and David Weil’s Apple series “Invasion” has set its main cast.

Apple TV Plus has cast “Jurassic World: Dominion” and “Peaky Blinders” star Sam Neill, “Wynnona Earp” alum Shamier Anderson and three others to star in the alien drama.

“Invasion” follows an alien invasion through multiple perspectives around the world. The series, which is set across several continents, returned to production in Manchester last week, following a Covid-19 hiatus.

Neill will play the character of Sheriff John Bell Tyson, a weathered rural lawman on the verge of retirement, while Anderson will play Trevante Ward, an extraordinary soldier stationed in Afghanistan.

Also joining the cast are Golshifteh Farahani “Body of Lies” as Aneesha Malik, a first generation Syrian immigrant, wife and mother living in Long Island; Firas Nassar (“Fauda”) as Ahmed Malik, Aneesha’s husband and a Syrian immigrant and successful businessman; and Shioli Kutsuna (“Deadpool 2″) as Mitsuki,...

Exclusive: Simon Kinberg/David Weil’s sweeping Apple TV+ alien invasion series returned to production in Manchester, England a week ago.

Sam Neill, Shamier Anderson, Golshifteh Farahani, Firas Nassar (Fauda) and Shioli Kutsuna star in Invasion (fka Untitled Kinberg/Weil), a character-driven sci-fi drama series from Kinberg, Weil and Platform One Media.

Written and executive produced by Kinberg and Weil, Invasion is set across multiple continents and follows an alien invasion through multiple perspectives around the world.

One of Apple’s most ambitious original series to date, Invasion is designed to film in four locations on four continents: New York in the U.S. as well as UK (Manchester), Morocco and Japan. Portions of the series had been shot in New York and Morocco, and producers were prepping for the UK shoot when the coronavirus-related industry shutdown started in mid-March.

The film received a 10-minute standing ovation at its world premiere.

In the opening scene of Palestinian director Najwa Najjar’s new film Between Heaven And Earth, a sassy looking young woman rocks up at her former marital home in Ramallah in a vintage blue Mercedes with red-leather seats, music blaring.

Inside, she finds the place in disarray and her estranged husband idling in the outdoor pool.

The romantic road movie, marks a departure in terms of tone and register, if not political intent, for Najjar after hard-hitting West Bank-set dramas Pomegranates And Myrrh and Eyes Of A Thief.
