77 Pantheon: Season 1

Animated sci-fi series debuts September 1 on AMC+ and HIDIVE

Daniel Dae Kim, Katie Chang, Paul Dano, Taylor Schilling, Rosemarie DeWitt, Aaron Eckhart, Scoot McNairy, Corey Stoll, Maude Apatow, Ron Livingston, and William Hurt (in what turned out to be his final performance completed before his death) are just some of the voices you'll hear in this animated drama adapted by Craig Silverstein (Turn: Washington's Spies) from a short story collection by noted sci-fi author Ken Liu. Centering on the concept of uploading human consciousness to the cloud—and, in particular, on a bullied teen girl who receives help from what appears to be her dead father—Pantheon has already been renewed for a second season and is expected to air at some point on cable's AMC in addition to streaming on AMC+. New episodes will (eight in total) stream weekly.
