Foundation Season 3 Episode 3: Release date news, streaming details and more

Apple TV+'s Foundation, which debuted in 2021, is set to release its season 3 episode 3 on July 25, 2025. Apple TV usually drops all its shows at 12:00 am Eastern Time/Pacific Time on the scheduled date. Following the release of the show's season 3, episode 1, the show topped headlines for featuring a different-looking Mule. The Mule will no longer be played by Mikael Persbrandt but by Pilou Asbæk. This change has stirred a debate about the show's storyline and what the latest season holds.

Foundation is always believed to portray a long-term arc and showcases humans spread across the galaxy, and are ruled by some galactic empire.

The Sci-fi epic based on Isaac Asimov’s legendary book series follows Hari Seldon, a brilliant mathematician who develops psychohistory — a statistical science that predicts the future of large populations. Using it, he foresees the inevitable fall of the Galactic Empire and a 30,000-year dark age to follow. Read on for the full streaming schedule.

Season 3 started airing on July 11, 2025, picking up 152 years after Season 2. The new arc introduces the Mule, a formidable psychic warlord reshaping the galactic balance.

What to expect in season 3 episode 3 of Foundation?

Season 3, episode 3 is titled When a Book Finds You and showcases the clone dynasty continuing its ritual. The Mule's mind control might be increasing by season 3, episode 3, especially after his victory in Kalgan. The synopsis or plot hasn't made it into the official website; therefore, it can only be speculated that the Mule's looming threat begins to eclipse the traditional Empire and might form the roots for future tensions.

Hari Seldon is played by Jared Harris, the visionary psychohistorian whose ideas spark the movement. Alongside him is Lou Llobell as Gall Dornick, a mathematical prodigy and Seldon’s protégé, and Leah Harvey will appear as Salvor Hardin, a fiercely independent warden. While Lee Pace will appear as Brother Day, aka the Empire clones.
