Oscar winner Sissy Spacek (Coal Miner’s Daughter) and Oscar winner J.K. Simmons (Whiplash) star as a married couple who discover a passage to another planet in the just-released trailer for Prime Video’s Night Sky. The streaming service’s new trailer shows Spacek and Simmons debating whether they should share this bizarre secret they’ve guarded for years.

In addition to Spacek and Simmons, season one stars Chai Hansen (The Newsreader), Kiah McKirnan (Mare of Easttown), Julieta Zylberberg (The Invisible Look), Rocío Hernández (La caída), and Adam Bartley (Longmire). Holden Miller created the series and serves as writer and co-executive producer. Executive producer Daniel C. Connolly is the showrunner. Additional executive producers include Philip Martin and Mosaic’s Jimmy Miller and Sam Hansen.
Prime Video released the following description of the sci-fi drama:
“Spanning space and time, Night Sky follows Irene (Spacek) and Franklin York (Simmons), a couple who, years ago, discovered a chamber buried in their backyard which inexplicably leads to a strange, deserted planet. They’ve carefully guarded their secret ever since, but when an enigmatic young man (Chai Hansen, The Newsreader) enters their lives, the Yorks’ quiet existence is quickly upended…and the mystifying chamber they thought they knew so well turns out to be much more than they could ever have imagined.”
Night Sky is an Amazon Studios and Legendary Television co-production.
