Netflix has commissioned Away, a new 10-part “epic love story and a thrilling tale of survival set against humanity’s greatest endeavor – the first human mission to Mars”.
Emma Green is an American astronaut who must leave her husband and teenage daughter behind in order to command an international space crew embarking upon a treacherous, year-long mission.
Away is a series about hope, humanity and how ultimately, we need one another if we are to achieve impossible things.
Loosely inspired by Chris Jones’ Esquire article of the same name, the series is being produced for Netflix by Universal Television, True Jack Productions, 6th & Idaho.
