For All Mankind's Ronald D. Moore Discusses Season 4 and If Series Will Ever Go Star Trek

One of Apple TV’s most impressive original series is co-creator and writer Ronald D. Moore’s sci-fi drama For All Mankind. For the first three seasons, the show has taken viewers on a journey that only toed the sci-fi line with their alternate history timeline, but Season 4 is venturing where no man has ever gone before. Before the first episode premiered on the streamer, Collider’s Steve Weintraub spoke with Moore about the future of For All Mankind and just what exactly sci-fi means to such a grounded story.
By the end of Season 3, For All Mankind officially reached the 21st century. NASA’s Happy Valley is a fully established Mars base where former rivals have become allies as the program shifts its focus to more pressing matters. The Space Race is settled, but the mission has changed: harness asteroids and mine them for precious resources. Naturally, this new common goal will present new tensions, as well as opportunities for the Everyman to join the astronauts and scientists among the stars. Season 4 introduces Toby Kebbell, Tyner Rushing, Daniel Stern, and Svetlana Efremova and sees the return of familiar faces like Joel Kinnaman, Wrenn Schmidt, Krys Marshall, Edi Gathegi, Cynthy Wu, and Coral Peña.
In their interview, Moore talks about Season 4 moving into unexplored territory, such as “moon bases and Mars bases that never existed and different kinds of spacecraft and propulsions and nuclear fusion.” Best known for his work on Star Trek, Outlander, and Battlestar Galactica, he also discusses whether there are plans to introduce the starship, which sci-fi elements For All Mankind won’t be dealing with, and whether this series could be a prequel to a new Star Trek type series. He shares the character storyline he’s excited for fans to see, the importance of Kebbell’s Miles Dale, and what’s next for him over at Disney+.
