Jared Harris plays multiple versions of genius genius Hari Seldon, and Lee Pace plays multiple versions of the galaxy’s constantly evolving Emperor. Fun, colorful, and full of captivating moments that range from explosive to intimate, Foundation It’s a science fiction adventure worth diving into, especially if you go in knowing that a second season is on the way.
