Apple’s Foundation Renewed for Season 4 as New Showrunners Take the Helm

The series will proceed under Ian Goldberg and David Kob with the story’s forecasted future treated as changeable rather than fixed.

Overview

  • Apple TV+ confirmed a fourth season and named Ian Goldberg and David Kob as co-showrunners after David S. Goyer stepped back.
  • Goyer explained that psychohistory and Gaal Dornick’s visions are now treated as probable outcomes rather than certainties, saying the future is not predetermined.
  • Reporting suggests the next season will likely continue from the current timeline instead of making the large time jump seen between earlier seasons.
  • The Season 3 ending underscored major worldbuilding shifts that recalibrate the balance between the Foundations without revealing specific plot turns.
  • No release date has been announced, and industry coverage frames 2027 as a plausible window based on prior gaps rather than a confirmed plan.
