An Inside Look at New Sci-Fi Series ‘Constellation’ with Noomi Rapace

"You ever seen anyhing that wasn't there?" Apple TV has unveiled a new "Inside Look" featurette for their sci-fi thriller series titled Constellation, described as an "action-packed space adventure [about] the dark edges of human psychology, and one woman's desperate quest to expose the truth about the hidden history of space travel." This promo video delves into the psychological side of this story, what it's digging into with this particular astronaut character and her story. Created and written by Peter Harness, Constellation stars Noomi Rapace as Jo – an astronaut who returns to Earth after a disaster in space – only to discover that key pieces of her life seem to be missing. The series also stars Jonathan Banks, James D'Arcy, Julian Looman, William Catlett, Barbara Sukowa; introducing Rosie & Davina Coleman as Alice.

It features an alien invasion though the humans don't notice it, so the aliens decide to make a website (and beam it right to our devices) to get everyone's attention. "What does a highly advanced civilization have to do to get noticed around here?" View the full extended cut of Hello Down There, a tale of intergalactic outreach, directed by Martin Scorsese, below. It's wild they got Marty to make this! Most impressive. The spot also features some footage from the classic 1956 Japanse sci-fi film Warning from Space, the one with the aliens in the star outfits with an eye in the middle. Yeah ...

Taylor Swift isn’t the only reason non-football fans tuned in to Super Bowl LVIII. Millions endured the big game for the chance to watch the commercials. Sounds counter-intuitive in an age when most people pay big money to bypass ads altogether? These ads are different. Big stars. Bigger budgets. Splashy effects. Nostalgia on steroids. Yet what …
