For All Mankind Blu-ray release: Details explored

The Apple TV+ Original, created by Emmy Award winner Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica), Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi, takes viewers on a fascinating journey into an alternate history of space exploration. The premise of the show is hinged on a profound alternation of history: What would be the case if the Soviets landed on the moon first instead of the United States?

For All Mankind is based on a story that starts with the Soviet Union landing a crew on the Moon before the US, which sets off a chain reaction that is set to change the course of history. The United States subsequently prepares to achieve the monumental feat, but in an even more historic way, with NASA taking the audacious decision to send a woman into space.

The plot of this drama not only brings up questions of the continuing space race but also addresses matters of gender equality in workspaces in that era. The meticulously crafted narrative by the creators, compelling cast, and attention to historical details have made the show a favorite among sci-fi lovers.

As fans and followers have been preparing for the release of a fourth season on November 10, 2023, Blu-ray has announced the release of For All Mankind Season 1 in collaboration with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Apple TV four days later from the Season 4 release date. The ten episodes of season 1 will be divided into four discs in 1080p ultra-high definition, and each episode will be in a 5.1 English DTS-HD MA audio track.

The set of four discs will ensure fans can rely on physical media releases at a time when streaming rights change every now and then.
