Moonhaven is a utopian science fiction television series produced by AMC+ that premiered on July 7, 2022.[1][2][3] The series depicts a quasi-utopian community set on a part of the Moon, intended to develop the technical and cultural means to save a ravaged Earth. The first episode begins with a murder, and the first season develops around a pivotal event for this project on the Moon, called the Bridge, when the first generations of Mooners, as the people from this community are called, will go back to Earth to teach the Earthers a way to overcome their ecological and economic crisis.[1]

The series is directed by Peter Ocko, and the cast includes Dominic Monaghan, Emma McDonald, Kadeem Hardison, Amara Karan, and Joe Manganiello.[1][4]

On July 28, 2022, it was reported that the series had been renewed for a second season by AMC+.[5] A few months later, the renewal decision was reversed and the series was canceled.[6]
