Beyond: UFOs and the Unknown Unveiled by MGM+

MGM+ has unveiled Beyond: UFOs and the Unknown, a new four-episode series premiering on October 27, 2024, at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

Following revelations in 2017 of a secret government program studying UFOs buried deep within the Pentagon, many scientists, academics, and government officials stopped wondering whether UFOs were real and started asking: “What are they?”

This journey led them far beyond machines in the sky, taking them down a rabbit hole of alien encounters, near-death experiences, remote viewing, and other seemingly unrelated paranormal phenomena. Using the most sophisticated techniques and searching for only credible evidence, they discovered frightening, perplexing, and eye-opening realities buried just beneath the surface of everyday life.

The answers they brought back promise not only to rewrite our conception of UFOs but to change everything we thought we knew about human consciousness, the afterlife, and our place in the universe.

Beyond: UFOs and the Unknown features Jacques Vallée (Computer Scientist and Astronomer), Whitley Strieber (Author, Communion), Garry Nolan (Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine), Leslie Kean (Journalist), Bryan Bender (Former Defense Editor, POLITICO), and Christopher Mellon (Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence).

Also featured are Tim Gallaudet (Rear Admiral, US Navy, Retired), Greg Eghigian (Professor of History and Bioethics at Penn State), Mitch Horowitz (Author, Modern Occultism), Jeffrey J. Kripal (Professor of Philosophy and Religious Thought, Rice University) and many more.

Paul Crowder directed the first and third episodes, and Mark Monroe directed the second and fourth episodes. The series is co-executive produced by Kevin Lincoln. Mark Monroe, Lyn Lear, Rachel Rusch Rich, Sean Stuart, Glen Zipper, and J.J. Abrams are the executive producers. Maren Domzalski is the producer.

Beyond: UFOs and the Unknown is a Bad Robot/Zipper Bros Films production in association with Sutter Road Picture Company, Diamond Docs, and MGM+ Studios.

BEYOND: UFOS AND THE UNKNOWN EPISODES

Revelations of a secret Pentagon program, as well as eyewitness testimony from fighter pilots, force the world to take UFOs seriously for the first time in years. But Congressional hearings and new task forces find more questions than they do answers.

Episode 2: November 3, 2024
Most people think that UFOs are just machines in the sky. But legendary researcher Jacques Vallée and writer Whitley Strieber believe that the explanation is much stranger and more terrifying… a terror that Strieber has experienced firsthand.

Episode 3: November 10, 2024
Academics and scientists are finally able to study UFOs and alien encounters without risking their careers. Some subjects remain taboo, though — including materials allegedly left by UFOs and the frightening stories of “experiencers.”

A number of mavericks believe that unexplained phenomena like remote viewing and near-death experiences have a strange connection to UFOs — and this connection threatens to change everything we thought we knew about human consciousness.
