Druyan and Carl Sagan partnered on the first Cosmos, A Personal Voyage, 40 years ago. Possible Worlds is the third season of Cosmos. In March, Druyan called it “our boldest yet.”

Seth MacFarlane, Brannon Braga and Jason Clark executive produce alongside Druyan. 

“Inventing and applying lavish cinematic VFX to the infinite splendor of nature, Cosmos: Possible Worlds will transport you to the stars and through that hole in the curtain hiding another reality,” said Druyan.
