Apple TV+ today premiered the first three episodes of “Invasion,” a new 10-episode science fiction drama series from Academy and Emmy Award-nominated writer/producer/director Simon Kinberg (“X-Men” films, “Deadpool” films, “The Martian”) and David Weil (“Hunters”).
The sweeping, character-driven Apple Original series, directed by Emmy Award nominee Jakob Verbruggen (“The Alienist,” “The Fall”), will deliver new episodes weekly, every Friday.
Set across multiple continents, “Invasion” follows an alien invasion through different perspectives around the world. The series stars Shamier Anderson (“Bruised,” “Awake”), Golshifteh Farahani (“Extraction,” “Paterson,” “Body of Lies”), Sam Neill (“Jurassic World: Dominion,” “Peaky Blinders”), Firas Nassar (“Fauda”) and Shioli Kutsuna (“Deadpool 2,” “The Outsider”).
Hailing from Boat Rocker Studios, “Invasion” is written and executive produced by Kinberg and Weil. In addition to directing, Verbruggen serves as executive producer. Audrey Chon, Amy Kaufman and Elisa Ellis serve as executive producers alongside Andrew Baldwin, who also writes. Katie O’Connell Marsh serves as executive producer for Boat Rocker Studios.
Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app in over 100 countries and regions, on over 1 billion screens, including iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac, popular smart TVs from Samsung, LG, Sony, VIZIO, TCL and others, Roku and Amazon Fire TV devices, Chromecast with Google TV, PlayStation and Xbox gaming consoles, and at tv.apple.com, for $4.99 per month with a seven-day free trial.

MacDailyNews Take: If you’ve already started watching “Invasion” (we will soon), let us know what you think!
No, not watching.
Why?
I have Apple TV+ as a part of a Mac purchase.
IF I had to pay in order to use Apple TV+ as a member and THEN had to pay for each show outside of several that are included with the subscription … then someone please tell me …
Where’s the value in that?
Is every show a “PayTV” special event?
Hardly.
I can tolerate “Foundation” for no further fees as a member of Apple TV+, and that’s as it should be.
No, if ‘Pay again and again and again’ is their game, I’m not playing.
Additionally if that’s the way they are going to roll, then when the subscription runs out, I’m out. I’ll find another service when I feel that I need more than the free YouTube.
Apple just lost my subscription dollar.
If you find another service when you feel the need for more than free YouTube, won’t you have to pay that service? What is the difference between paying this service or that service?
WTH are you on about? If you’re a subscriber, you can watch whatever you want. There’s no separate payment for anything on Apple TV+.
Some people just aren’t so smart
Hey dipshit, there is NO pay per view. The first three episodes are “released” today. Further episodes will be “released” later……they will be FREE to watch too.
Another wokeness invasion POS brought to you by Timmy!
-Bad white supremacists Neo-nazis.. CHECK!
-Sentimental lesbian characters…. CHECK!
-Minorities are the heroes… CHECK!
No silly, the all that woke crap is why the aliens invaded! They’re sick of the wokeness and they want to eradicate it.
Maybe Timmy isn’t as woke as we think…
LOL!!!
