Amazon Studios has officially renewed the sci-fi comedy series UPLOAD from Emmy Award-winning writer Greg Daniels for the third season. The cast of the series shared their excitement about Season 3 renewal via a video (watch above). All seven episodes of Season Two of Upload premiered March 11, 2022, and have remained a Top 10 series on the service ever since. The series also landed on Nielsen’s Top 10 Originals list.
“Upload has become a bonafide hit that continues to be one of the most-watched comedy originals on Prime Video,” said Vernon Sanders, head of global television, Amazon Studios. “The series continues to connect and provoke endless possibilities for the future of technology and humanity. With Greg’s distinct comedic take along with the dynamic creative team and talented actors, they’ve made a globally relevant series which we’re all incredibly proud to bring back another season for our customers.”
Creator and Executive Producer Greg Daniels said, “I'm thrilled to continue the story of Nathan and Nora and the other residents of Lakeview and near-future America as they try to have fun and do the right thing in both the real and virtual worlds.”
Upload is a science fiction comedy series set in a futuristic world where hologram phones, 3D food printers, and automated grocery shops are the norm. Humans, for the first time, have the option of being "uploaded" into a virtual afterlife.
In Season Two, Nathan is at a crossroads in his (after)life: his ex-girlfriend Ingrid has unexpectedly arrived in Lakeview, intending to rebuild their relationship, but his heart still yearns for Nora, his customer service angel. Meanwhile, Nora has gone off the grid and joined the anti-technology rebel group "The Ludds." Season Two is jam-packed with new near-future themes, such as Lakeview's newest in-app digital baby program, "prototykes," and other satirical peeks of future technological advances and frustrations.
The series was created by Greg Daniels, who also serves as executive producer along with Howard Klein.
‘Upload’ stars Robbie Amell as Nathan, Andy Allo as Nora, Allegra Edwards as Ingrid, Kevin Bigley as Luke, Zainab Johnson as Aleesha, Josh Banday as Ivan, Owen Daniels as A.I. Guy, and Andrea Rosenas as Lucy.
