For All Mankind Season 4 Trailer: Will Valuable Asteroid Spell Doom for Ed?

For All Mankind has settled into life on Mars’ self-sustaining colony in the first trailer for Season 4, but a new space race to get the “most valuable known object in our solar system” has us worried about Ed Baldwin & Co. (But mostly Ed.)

“Rocketing into the new millennium in the eight years since Season 3, Happy Valley has rapidly expanded its footprint on Mars by turning former foes into partners,” reads the official synopsis. “Now 2003, the focus of the space program has turned to the capture and mining of extremely valuable, mineral-rich asteroids that could change the future of both Earth and Mars.”

But of course, everyone is after the potential resource, including the CIA, North Korea and the KGB, in the above trailer, which was released during the show’s New York Comic Con panel on Thursday. “Simmering tensions between the residents of the now-sprawling international base threaten to undo everything they are working towards,” per the synopsis.

Combine that warning with several foreboding lines of dialogue in the trailer (“What are you going to do with all that money if you’re dead?” “I’m going to get that rock or die trying”), and we’re seriously starting to wonder if this latest space race will spell the end for Ed, who confesses, “I always thought I’d go out in a blaze of glory.”

There will once again be some changes to the ensemble when the series resumes: As TVLine exclusively reported, Jodi Balfour, who plays NASA astronaut-turned-President Ellen Waverly, will not be back as a series regular for Season 4. The actress will, however, appear in some capacity, we’re told, presumably to bring closure to her storyline. And as viewers will recall, Shantel VanSanten’s Karen Baldwin and Sonya Walger’s Molly Cobb both perished during a domestic terrorist attack on the Johnson Space Center in the Season 3 ender.

Helping to fill the void for Season 4 are new cast additions Daniel Stern (Shrill, Manhattan) as Eli Hobson, the new administrator at NASA who’s been tasked with bringing the agency into the 21st century; Svetlana Efremova (The Americans) as Irina Morozova, a high-ranking Soviet official; Tyner Rushing (Under the Banner of Heaven, The Terminal List) as Samantha, a space worker on the Mars colony; and Toby Kebbell (Servant) as Miles, a former offshore oil platform worker pursuing a new job opportunity on Mars.

For All Mankind Season 4 premieres Friday, Nov. 10, with a new episode dropping weekly through Friday, Jan. 12, 2024. Press PLAY above for a preview, then hit the comments with your first impressions!
