Dean Devlin and Jonathan Glassner’s The Ark is heading our way this summer, and the crew of the generation ship Ark 1 finds itself split up, with some continuing their voyage through the cosmos while others work to build a home at Homebase 1, which is on a planet that—as the trailer SYFY released today shows—has some other inhabitants as well.
The trailer also lays out the challenges the crew will face, both from the outside world and also from other humans. It also has a fun moment where Brice (Richard Fleeshman) tries to convince others (himself) that everything’s totally fine! No monster-like aliens crashing through windows, I promise! Everything’s right as rain! Don’t worry about it!
Things aren’t great for Captain Garnet (Christie Burke) and the others on Ark 1 either; we get hints for intra-human strife, with some not wanting to be peaceful. At all! Shots are fired, and how things all play out remains unclear.
In addition to Burke and Fleeshman, season three stars Reece Ritchie, Pavle Jerinic, Stacey Read, Ryan Adams, and Tiana Upcheva. Additional cast members include Shalini Peiris, Samantha Glassner, and Diana Bermudez.
Season three of The Ark premieres on SYFY on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
