Deets: Emmy Award winner Alexander Skarsgård joins MTV’s Josh Horowitz for a conversation following a special screening of the first two episodes of his new comedic sci-fi thriller series, Murderbot, premiering May 16 exclusively on Apple TV+.

Based on Martha Wells’ bestselling novels, Murderbot follows a rogue, budget-priced security construct who must hide its free will to complete a dangerous assignment. But all it really wants to do is binge futuristic soap operas and figure out its place in the universe. An action-packed sci-fi series and a shrewd satire of the internet age, Murderbot is anchored by a hilariously deadpan performance by Skarsgård.

Hear Skarsgård discuss the making of the show in a live taping of Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast — how he prepared for the role, why great sci-fi is always a commentary on the present, stories from the set, and more.
