Prime Video has released a new trailer and poster for Season 6 of The Expanse, which will debut its first episode on Friday, December 10, 2021.
The action-packed new trailer for the sixth and final season of The Expanse sees Holden and the crew of the Rocinante fight alongside the Combined Fleet of Earth and Mars to protect the Inner Planets from the devastating asteroid attacks launched by Marco Inaros and his Free Navy in their campaign of death and destruction.

The poster for the new season circles several series regulars, with Steven Strait, Dominique Tipper, Wes Chatham, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Cara Gee, Frankie Adams, Keon Alexander, Nadine Nicole, and Jasai Chase Owens all returning for the new episodes, which will air weekly on Prime Video, culminating with the show's series finale on January 14, 2022.
The fan-favorite sci-fi series is developed by Iron Man's Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby from a series of novels by James S. A. Corey. Showrunner Naren Shankar is an executive producer on the series alongside Andrew Kosove, Broderick Johnson, Laura Lancaster, Sharon Hall, Sean Daniel, Jason Brown, Daniel Abraham, Ty Franck, and Dan Nowak.
There are currently eight published novels in the original book series, with Leviathan Falls, the ninth and final book of the main series, set to hit shelves on November 30. The TV adaptation has reached Book 6 of The Expanse saga, meaning there are three more books yet to make it to the small screen, but Alcon's deal with Amazon is over after the sixth season.
