Amazon Prime Video Announces the Season Three Premiere of THE EXPANSE

Amazon today announced Season 3 of The Expanse will be available to Prime members in over 200 countries and territories on February 8. Seasons 1-2 are currently available in the US and will become available internationally on February 8.

Based on novels by James S. A. Corey, The Expanse is a critically-acclaimed, award-winning political Science fiction series set hundreds of years in the future. Humans have colonized the solar system with The United Nations controlling Earth and an independent military power inhabiting Mars. Desperate for air and water, the series begins with Earth and Mars on the verge of war over the resources found in the Asteroid Belt. With few options for survival, allies struggle to fight over the future of humanity.

Prime Video is the new home to the highly anticipated Season 4 of The Expanse, a Prime Original series, which will launch later this year. Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon, made the announcement in May 2018 at the National Space Society's International Space Development Conference in Los Angeles where the cast and showrunner were in attendance.

Co-created and written by Academy Award nominees Mark Fergus (Iron Man) and Hawk Otsby (Children of Men), the series stars three-time Golden Globe nominee Thomas Jane (Deep Blue Sea), Oscar-nominee Shohreh Asgdashloo (Star Trek: Beyond), Steve Strait (The Covenant), Dominique Tipper (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them), Wes Chatam (The Hunger Games), Cas Anvar (Punisher: War Zone), Frankie Adams (Mortal Engines) and Shawn Doyle (Frequency), Chad L. Coleman (The Walking Dead), Florence Faivre (The Sia Renaissance), and Cara Gee (Empire of Dirt).

The Expanse is produced by Alcon Television Group. Naren Shankar is the show runner.
