Dark Matter: Jennifer Connelly Set to Join Apple TV+ Sci-Fi Series
Jennifer Connelly (Snowpiercer) is set to star opposite Joel Edgerton in the AppleTV+ series Dark Matter, adding to the already impressive lineup of other sci-fi shows like Invasion, For All Mankind, and Foundation. The Top Gun: Maverick and Snowpiercer star will play Daniela, the wife of Jason Dressen (Edgerton). The story follows Jason, a physicist, professor & family man who, while walking home on the streets of Chicago one night, is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns into a 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.
Dark Matter Production Details
Dark Matter is based on the 2016 novel by Blake Crouch, who is writing and showrunning the series. He will executive produce alongside Edgerton, Matt Tolmach, and David Manpearl for Matt Tolmach Productions. Jakob Verbruggen (Invasion) will direct the first three episodes. The Oscar-winning Connelly will be wrapping up her run on the TNT action sci-fi drama Snowpiercer, with the series ending with its upcoming season. In Paramount's Top Gun: Maverick, Connelly played Penny Benjamin, the love interest and bartender for Tom Cruise's Pete "Maverick" Mitchell.
