Falling Skies

FALLING SKIES - NEW YORK MAGAZINE VIDEO: Falling Skies: Spielberg’s Alien-Invasion TV Show

"Falling Skies" premieres June 19 on TNT.



Falling Skies opens in the chaotic aftermath of an alien attack that has left most of the world completely incapacitated. In the six months since the initial invasion, the few survivors have banded together outside major cities to begin the difficult task of fighting back. Each day is a test of survival as citizen soldiers work to protect the people in their care while also engaging in an insurgency campaign against the occupying alien force.

At the center of the series is Tom Mason (Noah Wyle), a Boston history professor whose family has been torn apart. His wife was killed in the initial attack, and one of his three sons has been captured. Determined to get his son back and to ensure the safety of his other two sons, Tom must put his extensive knowledge of military history to the test as one of the leaders of the resistance movement known as the 2nd Mass, because of their location in Boston, Mass. They are constantly trying to gain intelligence about the aliens in order to one day outsmart and overtake them and hopefully rebuild their lives.

Moon Bloodgood (Terminator Salvation) co-stars as Anne Glass, a pediatrician who works with the surviving children to help them cope with the traumatic upheaval in their lives. Will Patton (Armageddon, TNT's Into the West) plays a fierce leader of the resistance, Weaver. The series also stars Drew Roy (Secretariat) as Hal, Tom's oldest son and a growing fighter in the resistance movement; Maxim Knight (Brothers & Sisters) as Matt, Tom's youngest son; Connor Jessup (The Saddle Club) as Ben, Tom's son who was captured by aliens; and Seychelle Gabriel (Weeds) as Lourdes, an orphaned teenager who helps Anne in the group's makeshift medical clinic. Colin Cunningham (Living in Your Car) is John Pope, the leader of an outlaw motorcycle gang and Sarah Carter (Shark) is Margaret, a wary survivor of Pope's gang.

FALLING SKIES focuses on the resilience of the survivors and their determination to maintain their humanity when all else has been destroyed. It is a tale of endurance, commitment and courage in which everyday people are called upon to become heroes. They may be outmatched, outnumbered and outgunned, but nothing can beat the human spirit. Most of all, the series is about the ties that bind people together in the most difficult of circumstances.

The aliens in the series are mighty, mysterious and merciless. They are highly intelligent and use military-like tactics, which makes them an overwhelming force against the 2nd Mass. There are two types of aliens that the human survivors have named Skitters and Mechs. Combining live action and special visual effects, the Skitters have spider-like bodies and incredible strength and agility. The deadly, robotic Mechs stand upright and can shoot bullets from their arms. The aliens control captured children, like Tom's son Ben, through bio-mechanical harnesses but have yet to reveal their ultimate plan for them.

FALLING SKIES is executive-produced by Steven Spielberg, along with DreamWorks Television heads Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank, Graham Yost (Justified, The Pacific) and screenwriter Robert Rodat. Rodat, who earned an Oscar® nomination for his screenplay for Saving Private Ryan, wrote the pilot from an idea he co-conceived with Spielberg. Mark Verheiden (Heroes, Battlestar Galactica) and Greg Beeman (Heroes, Smallville) are co-executive producers. The pilot was directed by Carl Franklin (One False Move, Out of Time).

Fringe Friday

DIGITAL SPY: Q&A: John Noble chats 'Fringe'!

March 21 2011
By Catriona Wightman

It's been a long time coming, but finally Fringe is back on UK screens this week! This season has been a belter, so we can't wait to find out what happens next. To celebrate the show's return, we called up the lovely John Noble - who plays Walter (and Walternate!) - to have a little chat. Read on to find out what he had to say about those flashbacks, Peter and Walter, and whether he thinks the show will be renewed ...

Photobucket

... Q: Do you sympathize with one Walter more than the other?

John Noble: "In a sense, intellectually I don't, because obviously this Walter on our side, he's a loveable old character but in fact he did do what he did. He did take into his own hands this thing of crossing over and taking the son, albeit for good intentions, to save the kid's life. You kind of sympathize with that and then you see he's gone through hell ever since. Walternate on the other hand was a man who had his son stolen, and I can totally understand how that would twist the mind and turn him into a vengeful and very powerful character. So I kind of understand both of them..."

Fringe returns in the UK on Wednesday at 10pm on Sky1.

Fringe airs Friday 9/8C on FOX (US).

TOTAL SCIFI ONLINE: Sam Witwer: The Human League

Tuesday 22 March 2011
by Bryan Cairns

Sam Witwer knows a thing or two about monsters. He’s probably most famous for his role in The CW’s Smallville, where he played Davis Bloome – aka, the Kryptonian creature Doomsday. His other genre credits include the Cylon-fighting Raptor pilot Crashdown in Battlestar Galactica, and providing the face and voice for Starkiller in the insanely popular videogame Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. He can currently be seen playing the vampire Aidan in the US remake of Being Human...

Photobucket

... What can we expect from Aidan in upcoming episodes?

Sam Witwer: "The rapport between roommates strengthens. The funny thing is me, Sam [Huntington] and Meaghan [Rath] immediately bonded when we met. We not only immediately liked each other but knew how to work with each other. For that reason they obviously hired us, but during the shooting they actually asked us to tone down the chemistry! They wanted to make sure we gave the sense that we didn’t really know each other at first and didn’t know how to talk to each other. I’ll be interested to see what fans of the British series say because that starts off with them always together and with lots of clever banter between them.

As the season progresses, the funny stuff becomes funnier, the sad stuff becomes sadder, and the intense stuff becomes more intense. As we know, Aidan is dealing with the Rebecca situation, and that becomes way more complicated too..."
