Foundation is coming back for a third season as the Apple TV Plus epic gets a long-awaited renewal. The rich sci-fi show is based on the novels by Isaac Asimov and follows the thousand-year saga of The Foundation, a band of exiles working to try and save the Galactic Empire.
Starring Lee Pace, Jared Harris, and Leah Harvey, the drama returned for a second season earlier in 2023. And while its first season had landed generally favorable reviews, the second season beat expectations to land a 100% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Per Deadline, showrunner David S. Goyer shared his thoughts on the show's season 3 renewal. "I’m thrilled Apple has given us the opportunity to continue chronicling Asimov’s pioneering galactic saga," he said in a statement. "This time, the stakes for Foundation and Empire are even higher as the Mule takes center stage, along with fan-favorites Bayta, Toran, Ebling, and Magnifico Giganticus."
