The series, which will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on Friday May 20, is about an elderly couple who have hidden a portal to another planet in their back garden.
Here’s everything you need to know about Night Sky.
What is “Night Sky” about?
The official synopsis for Night Sky states that “a married couple, Franklin and Irene York, discover a portal in their backyard that leads to an abandoned planet.”
Their discovery – which they have kept secret for many years of their five-decade marriage – is complicated when a man shows up at the portal. Is he a spaceman? Is he an alien? Will he put an end to their way of life?
Who is in the cast of Night Sky?
JK Simmons plays Franklin York, a former woodworker. Simmons is a prolific actor who is arguably best known for playing J Jonah Jameson in a number of Spider-Man films, but you may also recognize him from Counterpart, Palm Springs, Being the Ricardos, Oz or Whiplash.
