The show stars Steve Carrell as celebrated pilot Mark Naird who is appointed as the leader of this new branch of the US armed forces. 

Overseeing a colourful team, which includes scientist Dr Mallory (John Malkovich), social media director Tony Scarapiducci (Ben Schwarz) and astronaut Angela (Tawny Newsome), he’s tasked with establishing a new base on the moon. 

“Season 2 picks up with General Naird and his underdog team having to prove their worth to a new administration while dealing with interpersonal challenges,” reads the official plot synopsis. “Will the group come together or fall apart under the pressure?”

Cast members Diana Silvers, Jimmy O’ Yang, Lisa Kudrow, Don Lake, Alex Sparrow, Noah Emmerich, Jane Lynch, Jessica St Clair and Patrick Warburton are all set to return.

Space Force was created by Carrell and Greg Daniels, who previously co-created beloved sitcom Parks and Recreation and helped to launch The Office US. 

Despite the talent of those involved, the show’s first season received mixed to negative reviews from critics and currently stands at a less than stellar 39% on Rotten Tomatoes.
