JULY 20, 2022 - “Midnight Blue,” the eighth episode of The Orville: New Horizons, premieres this Thursday on Hulu. A new trailer has dropped for the episode, and we can expect to see a familiar face on the screen.

This week, the crew of the Orville visits Heveena’s sanctuary world and embarks on a journey that may leave the entire Union more vulnerable.

The Moclan Haveena, played by Rena Owens, returns to The Orville this week. The character was previously seen in the first season, in the episodes “About a Girl” and “Sanctuary”. Flashbacks of Haveena were also shown in the New Horizons episode “A Tale of Two Topas”.

In addition to this week’s preview, Hulu has released a special behind-the-scenes look at last week’s episode “From Unknown Graves”. Be sure to check it out on the Hulu YouTube channel.

The Orville: New Horizons stars Seth MacFarlane, Adrianne Palicki, Penny Johnson Jerald, Scott Grimes, Peter Macon, J. Lee, Mark Jackson, Chad L. Coleman, Jessica Szohr, and Anne Winters. New episodes premiere Thursdays through August 4th. “Midnight Blue” airs this week, July 21st, only on Hulu.
