Halle Berry has starred in her fair share of notable thrillers throughout her iconic career: Gothika, The Call and Perfect Stranger, to name a few. But there’s one in particular—a TV show—that slipped under my radar.
Extant, which originally ran for two seasons on CBS from 2014 to 2015, saw Berry starring as an astronaut who returns to Earth after a year living in space and finds that her experiences have led to events that will change the course of human history. A sci-fi series right up the alley of its executive producer, Steven Spielberg, Extant received mixed reviews at the time of its airing, which eventually led to its cancellation in October 2015. While things may not have worked out during its initial run, Extant is getting a second life on Netflix, where it has reached the top ten in the TV shows category on the platform.
