Netflix Releases First Trailer For Hilary Swank’s Away

Netflix has released a trailer for Away, the upcoming space drama starring Hilary Swank. As you can in the trailer above, Away will take a look at a more diverse group of astronauts than we typically see in space movies, while also examining some of the more painful aspects of the job, mentally and emotionally. Indeed, what makes Away truly stand out, is that the series examines not only the thrilling challenges of the Astronauts conquering space but the also the tension and drama created by what is happening back home, while these brave explorers are locked on a multi-year mission to Mars.

You can get the show synopsis and cast information for Away, below (via Netflix):

“From Executive Producer Jason Katims, the Netflix series Away is a thrilling, emotional drama on an epic scale that celebrates the incredible advancements humans can achieve and the personal sacrifices they must make along the way. As American astronaut Emma Green (Hilary Swank) prepares to lead an international crew on the first mission to Mars, she must reconcile her decision to leave behind her husband (Josh Charles) and teenage daughter (Talitha Bateman) when they need her the most. As the crew’s journey into space intensifies, their personal dynamics and the effects of being away from their loved ones back on Earth become increasingly complex. Away shows that sometimes to reach for the stars, we must leave home behind. Created by Andrew Hinderaker, the series is executive produced by showrunner Jessica Goldberg, Jason Katims, Matt Reeves, Andrew Hinderaker, Edward Zwick, Hilary Swank, Adam Kassan and Jeni Mulein.”
