By Malcolm Owen

Apple has released the full official trailer of the Apple TV+ drama 'For All Mankind,' with the two-minute video showing more of the alternate-reality space race story that will form part of the video streaming service's launch roster in November.

Released on Thursday, the trailer offers a closer look at "For All Mankind," on top of the first-look video for the show shared in June. The new two-minute trailer adds more of the backstory for the show, which will be available to view from November 1 on Apple TV+.

Created by Ronald D. Moore, previously known for his work on "Star Trek," the reboot of "Battlestar Galactica," and "Outlander," "For All Mankind" is based on the what-if scenario of the Soviet Union beating the United States to land on the Moon. The failure to be first to Earth's satellite prompts NASA to further its development to become the first to complete other space endevours, with the show telling the story from the viewpoint of the astronauts, engineers, and their families.

Moore is an Executive Producer for the show, working alongside Maril Davis, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi. The stars of the show include Joel Kinnaman, Michael Dorman, Wrenn Schmidt, Shantel VanSanten, Sarah Jones, and Jodi Balfour.

Apple is releasing "For All Mankind" as one of the first batch of programming commissioned by the company for the Apple TV+ service, which will cost $4.99 per month for the subscription. Users will be able to get a free year of Apple TV+ when they buy select Apple products.

Rather than being limited to one country, Apple will be rolling out Apple TV+ to 100 markets at launch on November 1. Along with Apple devices like the Apple TV, iPhone, and Mac, Apple is also making the service available on third-party hardware, starting with select Samsung smart TVs.
