Top Gun: Maverick's Jennifer Connelly Joins Joel Edgerton in Apple Multiverse Series

Jennifer Connelly is taking the road to the mind-bending multiverse on Apple TV+. Coming off the blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick, the Oscar-winning actor will star opposite Joel Edgerton in Apple's Dark Matter, a new nine-episode sci-fi series based on the book by Blake Crouch. Connelly, who currently stars in TNT's Snowpiercer, will play Daniela, the wife of Edgerton's character.

The series will follow Jason Dessen , a physicist, professor, and family man who — one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago — is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the multiverse of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of mind-bending realities, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from the most terrifying, unbeatable foe imaginable: himself.

Crouch will write and showrun the series inspired by his book. Sony Pictures Television is producing for Apple TV+. Louis Leterrier was set to direct the first four episodes of the nine-episode series; the first three episodes are to be directed by Jakob Verbruggen . Matt Tolmach and David Manpearl serve as executive producers for Matt Tolmach Productions.

Dark Matter will premiere as part of Apple's expanding sci-fi slate, which includes the third season of the Emmy-winning For All Mankind, also from Sony Pictures TV; the second season of Foundation from David S. Goyer; and Invasion. 0commentsBest Buy is currently offering free Apple TV+ for 3 months with access to Apple Originals like Ted Lasso, Severance, Physical, Black Bird, Five Days at Memorial, and more.
