New Podcast Launch: Faraway Starring Xochitl Gomez and Melonie Diaz
Faraway, a new sci-fi thriller podcast from Sonoro, takes listeners on a journey across the stars. Starring the incredible talents of Marvel’s Multiverse of Madness star Xochitl Gomez and Charmed actress Melonie Diaz, this immersive audio series explores the highs and lows of family, loss, and resilience against extraordinary odds. The show was created by award-winning director, Matthew Castellanos, and co-written with Brett Melnick.
Faraway centers on Camila Aguilar (Xochitl Gomez), a young woman reeling from the sudden disappearance of her mother, Elaina (Melonie Diaz), an astronaut who vanished without a trace on a space mission. But when a mysterious device with a hauntingly familiar voice arrives, Camila finds herself pulled into a complex, reality-warping quest to uncover what really happened to her mother.
This isn’t just a story of interstellar intrigue; it’s a tale of a young woman wrestling with questions of identity, love, and the sacrifices we make for family. Xochitl Gomez, known for roles that mix strength with vulnerability, brings Camila to life in a raw, emotional performance. Melonie Diaz adds depth and tension, making Faraway an experience where you’ll be hooked from the first line.
In Faraway, tech takes on a life of its own through Camila’s discovery of Orion, an enigmatic AI companion designed to help Camila uncover secrets of the universe — and maybe even truths about her mother’s disappearance. Orion operates as both a friend and guide, revealing insights about cosmic anomalies and offering cryptic clues to help Camila navigate the unknown.
Through voice activations, biometric responses, and predictive algorithms, Orion responds intuitively to Camila’s needs, yet keeps her on edge with its unsettling, almost-human qualities. As Camila learns to trust and navigate this device, Orion’s mysterious powers reveal more than she expects, merging tech and mysticism in a way that could forever alter her understanding of space and reality.
Follow Camila’s journey, and get ready for a mind-bending adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat.
Faraway is available on all major podcast platforms.
