Apple TV+’s “Extrapolations” Set to Premiere March 17, 2023

Apple TV+ and the cast and crew of “Extrapolations,” which is written, directed, and executive produced by Scott Z. Burns (“Contagion,” “An Inconvenient Truth,” and “The Report”), debuted the first footage from the show at the 2023 Winter Television Critics Association press tour.

The first three episodes of “Extrapolations,” a season consisting of eight related stories, will premiere on Friday, March 17, with subsequent episodes airing weekly, every Friday, until April 21, 2023.

The catastrophic impacts of climate change are introduced in “Extrapolations,” a jarring drama that takes place in the near future. When the planet is changing faster than the population can adapt, eight interconnected stories from around the world will examine the personal, life-altering decisions that must be taken.

Despite our differences, we all share a common desire to secure our descendants’ future. The struggle between bravery and complacency has never been more crucial than it is now, when the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. Can we get the courage to stop being the problem that causes our own demise before it’s too late?
