The series depicts a quasi-utopian community set on a part of the Moon intended to develop the technical and cultural means to save a ravaged Earth. The cast includes Dominic Monaghan, Emma McDonald, Kadeem Hardison, Amara Karan, and Joe Manganiello. The series is directed by Peter Ocko, and the cast includes a younger generation of Moon settlers on the verge of returning to Earth with what they’ve learned, a last-gasp humanitarian mission.
The series is set three generations after settlers left a dying Earth to build a 500-square-mile colony on the Moon. Rather than eyeing the lunar surface as a potential Earth replacement, the community of Moonhaven was sent with a powerful artificial intelligence system.
