The first-ever on-screen adaption of Issac Asimov's beloved, award-winning science fiction novels is coming to AppleTV+. In June, TV Fanatic revealed that Foundation premieres on September 24, with three of the ten episodes ready to stream globally.
Foundation has an ensemble cast full of familiar and fresh faces, from Emmy winners Jared Harris and Lee Pace to up-and-comers such as Lou Llobell and Leah Harvey.
TV Fanatic recently got the chance to chat with actress Kubbra Sait about her role as Phara in the series. Known as a TV Host and Emcee in her native India, this is her first time breaking into American media.
Congratulations on the new show! What attracted you to Foundation?
I was called in for an interview by Tess Joseph in India. It was a global casting for the role of Phara, [meaning that she] could be anyone. The audition process was tight-lipped, but the fun was in guessing what I was auditioning for.
