Apple posts trailers for ‘Matchbox: The Movie,’ the second season of ‘Dark Matter,’ and ‘Neuromancer’

Apple has posted trailers for "Matchbox: The Movie," the second season of "Dark Matter" and "Neuromancer."

Apple has posted three trailers for an upcoming movie and two TV series (one returning and one new).

One trailer is for “Matchbox The Movie” starring John Cena, premiering globally on Apple TV on Friday, October 9.

Here’s how it’s described: Inspired by the iconic Mattel toys, “Matchbox The Movie” is an action-packed, globe-trotting adventure about a group of friends since childhood who have their lives upended when undercover CIA agent Sean (Cena), their long-absent former leader, returns to their small town and unwittingly gets them embroiled in a frantic international pursuit to save the world.

The second trailer is for the second season of “Dark Matter,” starring Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly. The 10-episode second season premieres globally on Friday, August 28, on Apple TV with the first episode, followed by one new episode every Friday through October 30, 2026.

Here’s how it’s described: “Dark Matter” is a story about the road not taken. In season one, the series followed Jason Dessen (Edgerton), a physicist, professor and family man who — one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago — is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the mind-bending landscape of lives he could have lived. Season two picks up with the Dessens as they settle into a quiet life in a world that finally seems safe, until the unimaginable forces them to run once again. As Jason’s obsession with the Box deepens, Daniela’s (Connelly) growing paranoia pushes her to the brink, and their son Charlie (Oakes Fegley) starves for a sense of stability as their family is threatened. Elsewhere, Amanda (Alice Braga) and Ryan (Jimmi Simpson) join forces in a desperate attempt to find their way home. With Blair (Amanda Brugel) determined to stop him, Leighton (Dayo Okeniyi) relentlessly chases his grand vision of creating a perfect world.

The third trailer is for “Neuromancer,” based on the award-winning novel of the same name by William Gibson. The 10-episode series stars Turner, Briana Middleton, Mark Strong, Joseph Lee, Peter Sarsgaard and Clémence Poésy, and premieres globally on Apple TV on Friday, January 22, with two episodes, followed by one new episode every Friday through March 19, 2027.

Here’s how it’s described: “Neuromancer” follows a damaged, top-rung super-hacker named Case (Turner) who is thrust into a web of digital espionage and high-stakes crime with his partner Molly (Middleton), a razor-girl assassin, as they pull off a heist on a corporate dynasty with untold secrets. The ensemble cast also includes Max Irons, Dane DeHaan, Junia Rees, Jordan Kouamé, Emma Laird, Marc Menchaca, André De Shields and Isabella Pappas.
