“The only thing scarier than a plane crash is a plane crash full of violent inmates.” Uh oh. Doesn’t sound good. Apple TV has revealed a first look announcement teaser confirming the release of the series titled The Last Frontier. It’s set to arrive for streaming on Apple TV+ starting on October 10th this fall. Of course this just reminds me of Con-Air. Though it looks more like Con-Air meets The Grey (the 2011 Liam Neeson survival thriller). The series follows Frank Remnick, a U.S. Marshal in charge of the quiet and weathered barrens of Alaska, as he needs to deal with a prison transport plane crash full of violent inmates inside his jurisdiction. Jason Clarke stars as Remnick, along with Dominic Cooper, Haley Bennett, Simone Kessell, Dallas Goldtooth, Tait Blum, & Alfre Woodard. I also recognize Clifton Collins Jr. on the plane. With episodes directed by filmmakers John Curran (director of The Painted Veil, Stone, Tracks, Chappaquiddick, Mercy Road) and Sam Hargrave (director of Extraction 1 & 2). A very quick early teaser without much footage yet – but something to keep an eye out for anyway this fall. This might be really good.
Here’s the first look announcement promo for Apple TV+’s new series The Last Frontier, from YouTube:
The series follows Frank Remnick (Jason Clarke), the lone U.S. marshal in charge of all the quiet, rugged barrens of Alaska. Remnick’s jurisdiction is turned upside-down when a prison transport plane crashes in the remote wilderness, setting free dozens of violent inmates. Tasked with protecting the town he’s vowed to keep safe, he begins to suspect the crash wasn’t an accident, but the first step of a well-crafted plan with far-reaching and devastating implications. The Last Frontier is a series created & written by the writers Jon Bokenkamp (Taking Lives, The Call,, The Blacklist, The Blacklist: Redemption) and Richard D’Ovidio. With additional writing by Melissa Glenn. And episodes directed by John Curran, Dennie Gordon, Jessica Lowrey, Sam Hargrave. Made by Pickpocket Entertainment & Apple Studios. Exec produced by Bokenkamp & D’Ovidio, Jason Clarke, Laura Benson, Glenn Kessler, Albert Kim, and Sam Hargrave. Apple will debut The Last Frontier series streaming on Apple TV+ starting October 10th, 2025 this fall. Who’s intrigued?
