REVOLUTION, the epic adventure series about a family struggling to reunite in a post-apocalyptic world, makes it to Australian television on Tuesday 5 November.
This sci-fi adventure comes from executive producer J.J. Abrams (Person of Interest, Fringe, Lost), along with Eric Kripke (Supernatural) and Bryan Burk (Fringe, Lost).
All power has mysteriously blacked out. Phones, computers, everything. There are no cars. Nothing works anymore. The global blackout brought down governments, made masses flee the cities, and left survivors to resort to a primitive way of living – gathered in villages and hunting their food.
Fifteen years later nothing has changed. Local militias now run rampant and heroic freedom fighters do all they can to work out why the power failed and how it can be restored.
Seen through the eyes of Charlie (Tracy Spiridakos), a strong-willed young woman, and her brother Danny (Graham Rogers), Revolution is a story about families – the one you’re born into and the one you choose.
In the double episode premiere, Danny is kidnapped by militia leaders and Charlie must seek out her estranged uncle Miles (Billy Burke), a former US marine who now lives a reclusive life.
Banding together with a rogue group of fellow survivors, they set out to rescue Danny, overthrow the militia and put an end to the blackout.
