Foundation (2021)
Foundation (2021) is a science fiction television series developed by David S. Goyer and Josh Friedman for Apple TV+. The series is based on the iconic Foundation series of novels by Isaac Asimov, one of the most influential works in science fiction literature.
The story is set in a distant future where the Galactic Empire spans countless planets and is at the height of its power. The series follows the visionary mathematician Hari Seldon (played by Jared Harris), who develops a scientific method called “psychohistory.” This method uses advanced mathematics and sociology to predict the future on a massive scale. Seldon foresees the inevitable collapse of the Galactic Empire, which will lead to a dark age lasting 30,000 years.
To mitigate this period of chaos, Seldon proposes the creation of the Foundation, a group of scientists and engineers tasked with preserving knowledge and guiding the galaxy toward a better future. However, his predictions and the establishment of the Foundation threaten the power of the ruling forces, leading to conflict and political intrigue across the galaxy.
The series delves into the complex themes of fate, free will, and the cyclical nature of history, while exploring the struggles of individuals who must choose between preserving their own interests and serving the greater good. Foundation is known for its expansive world-building, rich character development, and stunning visual effects, bringing Asimov’s vast universe to life
With a strong ensemble cast that includes Lee Pace, Lou Llobell, and Leah Harvey, Foundation offers a mix of philosophical depth, political intrigue, and epic storytelling. While it adapts and modernizes certain elements of Asimov’s original work, it remains faithful to the essence of the source material, making it a must-watch for fans of classic science fiction. The show has received praise for its ambitious scope, production design, and its portrayal of the complex, multi-layered narrative originally conceived by Asimov.
