Apple TV+'s Foundation adapts Isaac Asimov's works with notable creative liberties, particularly highlighting Season 3, where it introduces Gaal Dornick as a counter to the antagonist, the Mule. This season draws upon themes from Foundation and Empire and Second Foundation, exploring the chaotic nature of the Mule, a rogue telepath. While the books present the Mule as an unpredictable force, the series establishes Gaal, a character with 'mentalic' powers, as a significant foil, enriching the narrative and offering fresh perspectives on the traditional storylines.
Unlike the books, the TV series has done is plant a counter for the Mule in the form of Gaal Dornick, who possesses 'mentalic' powers that substantially elevate her role.
The new trailer showcases the Foundation clashing with the chaotic forces of the Mule, emphasizing this season's focus on that profound conflict.
