Invasionthe Apple TV+SF series returns for a season 3 whose trailer promises a total war against extraterrestrial invaders.
After season 1 catastrophic ofInvasionthe series seemed to be doomed to reach the cemetery of the ambitious but failed series. His first season, launched in 2021, was castigated for his desperately slow pace and a writing full of shots. His second salvo, supposed to correct the shot, had not really reversed the trend, season 2 being too contemplative to be exciting. Few criticisms have found their account there, and the spectators did not follow en masse.
So we imagined Apple TV+ turning the page, but the platform persists and signs. Against all expectations, she ordered a season 3, still overseen by Simon Kinberg (X-Men, Alone on March) it David WeiL (Hunters, Citadel). And after a first teaser who announced a rise in power, The latest trailer confirms that the time of restraint is over and that the total war is coming.
Invasion: Planet Earth
After two seasons spent multiplying parallel intrigues and intimate looks on the invasion, the series finally seems to want to assume its concept. In any case, this is what the last trailer promises, since we see that most of the outstretched perspectives will converge. Two years after the Aliens Mother Mother Crash, the army brings together people who have the most knowledge of extraterrestrial entities to send them beyond the “Dead Zone” and investigate strange phenomena that take place around the machine.
The trailer also confirms another major transformation, since the Alien race seems to have evolved, their forms have changed, and we have even seen fatal tentacles spread at a disturbing speed. Which hitherto resembled a discreet invasion changes therefore (finally!) Towards a concrete threat. The teaser shows a priori better conducted combat scenes, special effects that have undergone a beautiful facelift, and above all, a much more palpable emergency. In short, the series seems decided to finally deliver the promise of its title.
On the casting side, Anesha Malik (interpreted by Golshifteh Farahani) and Mitsuki Yamato (Shioli Kutsuna) will be part of the central group, finally gathered to fight the common enemy. The rest of the casting sees the return of Shamier Anderson, India Brown, Shane Zaza and Enver Gjokaj, while Erika Alexander joined the distribution in a still mysterious role.
Besides, it should be noted that the character of Mitsuki Yamato seems to have the power to communicate with the Alien race, And that the discoveries she makes by getting into contact with her are likely to shake the series in depth. We see from here coming the good old twist of “in fact humans are the bad guys and the aliens the gentiles”, but we hope to be wrong.
Season 3 ofInvasion will start on Apple TV+ on August 22 And will be broadcast until October 24 (since it will have 10 episodes).
