The series kicked off at the launch of the streaming service, outliving numerous other shows produced by the tech giant as the industry attempts to reel in extravagant spending.<\/p>\n
Due to its space-based premise, For All Mankind isn\u2019t a cheap show to produce, but a dedicated fanbase and consistently strong reviews will help make a case to executives on the merits of keeping it going.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s everything we know so far about the future of For All Mankind, based on the latest updates from the creative team.<\/p>\n
Will there be For All Mankind season 5?<\/strong><\/h2>\n ![\"Masha]( "\\"For_All_Mankind_Photo_040301\\"\/")

\u201cYou can sense things are starting to pick up, and just industry-wide everyone\u2019s starting to gear up towards, \u2018Okay, we know it\u2019s about to all happen again, so let\u2019s start talking in earnest about how we prepare the way for it,’\u201d he explained (via Collider<\/a>).<\/p>\nWe\u2019ll update this page when a decision on For All Mankind\u2019s fate is announced.<\/p>

That\u2019s due to the Hollywood strikes, which halted development on a wide variety of scripted films and television over the past year, with co-creator Ben Nedivi telling Collider<\/a> it had put them on the back foot for the first time in their run.<\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s interesting, because I think the difference this year, because of the writers\u2019 strike, we weren\u2019t able to [\u2026] start a room for season 5,\u201d he began.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think this is the first time in the history of the show where the show is premiering without us really starting a room for season 5.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, not only do we not have an official pick-up, we haven\u2019t even started the room yet.\u201d<\/p>\n
The creatives went on to estimate that the lack of pre-written scripts could delay production on a possible season 5 by four to five months, which would point to a premiere date in\u00a0late 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\nWhat could happen in a potential For All Mankind season 5?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThere\u2019s no way of knowing exactly what might happen if For All Mankind returns for season 5, but we can expect there to be another 10-year time jump, leaving the writers with a lot to explain as we arrive in an alternate 2010s.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe not only focus on how history has changed between seasons,\u201d Nedivi told Den of Geek as season 4 premiered, \u201cbut also the technical advances that impact the new season.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve noticed that 80 to 90 per cent of the montage is now alt-history, whereas in the beginning there was a lot of real history. The butterfly effect of the show keeps expanding.\u201d<\/p>\n

In season 4, two of the longest-serving cast members were Joel Kinnaman (as Ed Baldwin) and Wrenn Schmidt (as Margo Madison), but the creators have previously warned that the originals won\u2019t be around forever.<\/p>\n
Nedivi told Den of Geek: \u201cOne of the things we recognised early on was that, for the concept to work, the main cast of characters wouldn\u2019t be able to be there until the end, or we\u2019d have a show with 100-year-old ancient astronauts on Mars.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, we\u2019ve always attempted to bring in a little new blood as our old cast members have had to leave.\u201d<\/p>\n
