Apple TV rolls out the first two episodes of Star City, a spinoff of the alternate‑history drama For All Mankind. The series arrives just as the parent show concluded its latest season, extending the timeline where the Soviet Union eclipsed the United States by landing on the Moon. Viewers can stream the debut immediately for subscribers.

Star City revisits the same speculative universe but shifts focus to Soviet cosmonauts, engineers, and embedded intelligence officers. Critics who received early screeners describe it as a darker, espionage‑laden companion rather than a simple mirror image. Early reviews lean positive, noting the show’s tension and its expansion of the franchise’s world‑building for fans and newcomers alike across multiple seasons now.

Apple TV costs $12.99 per month and bundles Star City with hits like Severance, The Morning Show, and Silo. By pairing a thriller that explores Cold War space politics with its existing sci‑fi slate, Apple strengthens its niche against competing streaming services. The spinoff now adds a fresh narrative angle to the platform’s original content library for subscribers today globally.
