AppleTV+ Renews 'Invasion' for Season 2

Ahead of its first season finale being released this Friday, AppleTV+ has today renewed its original drama series Invasion for a second season.







The drama stars Golshifteh Farahani, Shamier Anderson, Shioli Kutsuna, Firas Nassar, Billy Barratt, Azhy Robertson, Tara Moayedi, Daisuke Tsuji and Sam Neill.

David Weil and Simon Kinberg created the drama. They executive produce with Audrey Chon, Amy Kaufman, Elisa Ellis, Andrew Baldwin, Katie O'Connell and Jakob Verbruggen. Genre Films and Boat Rocker Studios produce.

"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 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."

"From day one, we have been hooked on this unique, engrossing and very human telling of an invasion story which deftly explores how the lives of different characters around the world are impacted when Earth is under siege," added Matt Cherniss, Head of Programming, AppleTV+. "It has been so rewarding to witness global audiences respond to the brilliant performances, the captivating mystery and the sweeping cinematic vision, not to mention some pretty terrifying alien intruders. We couldn't be more excited for viewers to see what Invasion creators David Weil and Simon Kinberg have in store for these characters - as well as our planet - in season two."
