Since 2019, one fictional astronaut has been pushing the envelope farther and farther into space. As embodied by Joel Kinnaman, the hotheaded yet heroic Ed Baldwin has been the de facto lead of For All Mankind since the beginning. In Season 1, he led the charge to establish the first Moonbase; in Season 2, he helped avert global war on the Pathfinder shuttle; in Season 3, he made it to Mars; and in Season 4, he stole an asteroid. Now, at the start of Season 5, just three episodes in, Ed’s journey is seemingly at a close.
Inverse caught up with Joel Kinnaman to unpack the massive spoiler in For All Mankind Season 5, Episode 3, “Home.” If you haven’t seen this episode yet, this is the warning to stop reading now.
