News of the renewal comes just over a month after the Season 1 finale of the series, which aired on June 26. The sci-fi thriller series is based on the Blake Crouch novel of the same name. The series stars Joel Edgerton, Jennifer Connelly, Alice Braga, Jimmi Simpson, Dayo Okeniyi, and Oakes Fegley.
“Thanks to everyone who tuned-in for season one—book fans and new fans—and of course our partners at Apple and Sony, my amazing producing partner, Matt Tolmach, our tremendous cast and crew, and the great city of Chicago—you were so good to us,” said Crouch. “In the process of writing and filming season one, we discovered that there’s so much more story to tell, and we’ve only scratched the surface of these characters as they fight for survival and to find their way home through a landscape of mind-bending realities. See you in the Box!”
Crouch serves as the creator, executive producer, showrunner and writer on the series alongside executive producer Matt Tolmach. Edgerton is also an executive producer, as is Jacquelyn Ben-Zekry. Sony Pictures Television is the studio.

“Making ‘Dark Matter’ was a longtime dream, and I’m so proud to see Blake’s vision come to life and to connect with so many people,” said Tolmach. “Seeing the Dessens’ journey resonate with audiences has been extremely gratifying, and we can’t wait to bring more of this world — and others — to life in season two. Huge thanks to Apple TV+, Sony and our amazing cast and crew. Here we go!”
The official description for the series states that it follows “Jason Dessen (Edgerton), 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 mind-bending landscape of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of 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.”
“The thought-provoking and gripping ‘Dark Matter’ has quickly become a global hit, capturing audiences’ imaginations and making it a beloved and integral part of Apple’s world class sci-fi line up,” said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. “We are thrilled to continue our collaboration with Blake Crouch, our partners at Sony and the rest of the creative team and cast — led by the remarkable Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly — on a new season that will captivate viewers with more twists and turns as we dive deeper into the mysteries of the multiverse.”
