It looks like it’s starting from the beginning of Foundation judging by the original trailer and they are also expanding on that since it was only the first chapter in the first book. I know Gaal Dornick and Salvor Hardin have both been gender swapped so you might not recognize them (not unexpected considering the novels aren’t much on diversity) I’d expect there’s going to be a lot of changes from the book. Jared Harris is a fantastic choice for Seldon though.
