‘Foundation’ Season 2 – Explosive Space Battles Teased in Final Trailer
Hari Seldon’s colony has become a flame that the Empire will do anything to extinguish in Foundation Season 2.
In Season One the Galactic Empire, after reigning unchallenged for twelve millennia, is on the brink of collapse. Only Hari Seldon, the mind behind the futuristic science of psychohistory, can foresee the impending era of darkness. An epoch filled with ignorance, savagery, and conflict, destined to last for thirty thousand years is coming. In order to safeguard knowledge and protect humanity, Seldon assembles the Empire’s finest intellects and transports them to a desolate planet on the galaxy’s edge. This refuge he calls the Foundation.
Season Two takes place more than a century later. After 10,000 years of rule, the clones of Emperor Cleon are losing their grip on the Galactic Empire. An uprising is raging, and the Foundation has become a threat to the Empire. A war is coming. The Foundation has to be ready to fight.
