Mireille Enos Joins For All Mankind — Will She Reunite With Her Killing Co-Star Joel Kinnaman?
Mireille Enos just booked one moonshot of a job.
She’s joining the Season 5 cast of Apple TV+’s For All Mankind, TVLine has confirmed. Our sister site Variety first reported the casting.
Enos will play Celia Boyd, a member of the Peacekeeper Security Force on Mars. The actress’ previous TV work includes Lucky Hank, Hanna, Good Omens, Big Love and The Catch.
The role could mark a reunion of Enos and her The Killing co-star Joel Kinnaman, who starred in the space-race drama’s first four seasons but whose presence in Season 5 is not guaranteed. Allow us to explain:
For All Mankind‘s Season 4 finale concluded with a nine-year time jump from 2003 to 2012, which revealed that asteroid Goldilocks is now home to the Kuznetsov Station. The episode was less clear about which characters had made it to that future. When TVLine spoke with showrunners Ben Nedivi and Matt Wolpert after Season 4 wrapped, we asked if Kinnaman’s Ed — who (thanks to the show’s time jumps) is aging quickly and who is ill — would be back for Season 5.
“At this point, we don’t want to say anything, honestly,” Nedivi said, citing that the show hadn’t yet been renewed. (That did eventually happen, in April 2024.) “So I would leave that open. … In general, the rule has been, for Matt and I at least, if we feel there’s no more story to tell with [a] character, and by story, I mean good, meaty story, then that’s usually the sign that it’s time to move on.”
A rep for Apple TV+ told TVLine there are “no additional casting updates to share at this time.”
She was amazing in the killing and it’s sad in the years since the best work she could do since the show ended was Hanna.
where she also worked with Kinnaman.
I hope Ed is dead.
My hope is that the official podcast will be revived… and maybe even go back to cover Season 4, to help encourage rewatching before Season 5 comes out. (And has anyone mentioned an approximate date for a season premiere?)
Yo Lindon!!
