Also heading to Star on Disney+ is season 2 of the gritty modern reimagining of H G Wells sci-fi classic War of the Worlds. Season 1 will be available to stream May 28, with season 2 landing in July.
Written and created by BAFTA award winner Howard Overman (Misfits, Crazyhead, Merlin), this version is set present-day Europe, War of the Worlds. An alien attack all but wipes out mankind, leaving only pockets of humanity to learn more about the alien invaders. The show stars Gabriel Byrne and Daisy Edgar-Jones.
