The first look at the highly-anticipated, star-studded series Extrapolations was unveiled by Apple TV+ and the cast and crew of the series at the 2023 Winter Television Critics Association press tour. Further, it was announced that the series will premiere with the first three episodes on March 17, followed by new episodes weekly, every Friday through April 21.

Told over a season of eight interconnected episodes, the series hails from writer-director Scott Z Burns and is produced by Michael Ellenberg’s Media Res.

Extrapolations is a bracing drama that introduces a near future where the chaotic effects of climate change have become embedded into our everyday lives. Eight interwoven stories about love, work, faith, and family from across the globe will explore the intimate, life-altering choices that must be made when the planet is changing faster than the population. Every story is different, but the fight for our future is universal. And when the fate of humanity is up against a ticking clock, the battle between courage and complacency has never been more urgent. Are we brave enough to become the solution to our own undoing before it’s too late?
