Season two, episode one, is titled “A Quiet Life” and finds the Dessens receiving an unwelcome visitor. Plus, Ryan finds Amanda, and Leighton finds himself.
Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly star as Jason and Daniela Dessen, Alice Braga returns as Amanda, Jimmi Simpson is back as Ryan, Dayo Okeniyi plays Leighton, Oakes Fegley is Charlie, and Amanda Brugel plays Blair. Dark Matter is based on Blake Crouch’s novel, and Crouch created the series and serves as showrunner, writer, and executive producer.
Additional executive producers include Joel Edgerton, Jennifer Connelly, Matt Tolmach, Richard Lederer, and Jacquelyn Ben-Zekry.

Apple TV offers this description of Dark Matter:
“In season one, the series followed Jason Dessen (Edgerton), a physicist, professor and family man who — one night while walking home on the streets of Chicago — is abducted into an alternate version of his life. Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the mind-bending landscape of lives he could have lived.
Season two picks up with the Dessens as they settle into a quiet life in a world that finally seems safe until the unimaginable forces them to run once again. As Jason’s obsession with the Box deepens, Daniela’s (Connelly) growing paranoia pushes her to the brink, threatening to tear their fragile stability apart. Elsewhere, Amanda (Braga) and Ryan (Simpson) join forces in a desperate attempt to find their way home. With Blair (Brugel) determined to stop him, Leighton (Okeniyi) relentlessly chases his grand vision of creating a perfect world.”
