The first season, which aired between April and June 2017, followed the life of Albert Einstein, from his early years, through his time as a patent clerk, and into his later years as a physicist who developed the theory of relativity. The second season follows the life and artistry of Pablo Picasso. The third season was originally supposed to focus on Mary Shelley, but this was changed during development to instead focus on Aretha Franklin. In December 2020, the series was renewed for a fourth season, set to be released on Disney+.
