Set in the future where humanity has colonized the Solar System, The Expanse, unlike other Sci-Fi series has adulterated the whole universe with earthly politics but trust us, the recipe is incredible.

The Expanse season 5 release dates
Season 4 premiered on December 12, 2019, and like prior seasons didn’t fail to miss a beat with characterization and narration. Amazon Prime made the best move when Syfy network cancelled the series after season 3 and brought The Expanse under their ever-expanding universe.
The platform renewed the series for 5th outing even before the premiere of season 4 which showed their immense faith in quality content.
No official announcement has been made on the release dates of The Expanse season 5 but according to various reports, the filming has begun way back in October 2019. The excited cast of Expanse has been constantly posting from the sets. We can safely predict that Rocinante folks will be back much sooner, most probably by December 2020.
