Who's in the Away season 1 cast, and where have you seen them before? The 10-episode series follows a team of international astronauts who lead a mission to Mars, and it feels timely with its exploration of how families and professionals cope with unique circumstances while under pressure.
Away season 1 focuses on astronaut Emma Green. The first episode, "Go," establishes the character's backstory and her relationship to both her husband, Matt (a NASA engineer), and their daughter, Alexis. Just one day before Emma and her colleagues are scheduled to leave their Moon prep station for Mars, a internal conflict suggests that a new leader may be necessary.
When Matt suffers a stroke, Emma must decide if she wants to push forward into The Great Unknown or literally return to Earth. The first episode of Away season 1 was directed by Edward Zwick, who is best known for helming popular films like Glory, Legends of the Fall and The Last Samurai.
