Post Description

The Man in the High Castle is an American dystopian alternative history television series produced by Amazon Studios, Scott Free, Headline Pictures, Electric Shepherd Productions and Big Light Productions.[1] The series is loosely based on the 1962 novel of the same name by American science fiction author Philip K. Dick.[2] Taking place in 1962 — in an alternate history of the world in which the Axis powers won World War II and subdivided the world, splitting the United States into two powers, the Greater Nazi Reich and the Japanese Pacific States — the series follows characters from both sides whose destinies intertwine after coming into contact with a series of propaganda films that show a vastly different history than their own.
The pilot premiered on January 15, 2015, and was Amazon's "most-watched since the original series development program began."[3] On February 18, 2015, the series was picked up for a ten-episode season,[4] and the remaining nine episodes were released on November 20, 2015.[5][6] A second season of ten episodes premiered on December 16, 2016.[7] On January 3, 2017, it was announced that Amazon had renewed the series for a third season.[8]
