Archangel Making U.S. Premiere on ION

WEST PALM BEACH/NEW YORK,
October 24: ION Television is set to debut the three-hour British mystery-thriller
Archangel, starring the newest
James Bond, Daniel Craig, on November 1 at 8 p.m.

Set in contemporary Moscow, the film takes place over four days in the life of
former Oxford historian Fluke Kelso (Daniel Craig), whose meeting with a former
Stalinist bodyguard leads to the unraveling of one of the world’s best-kept
secrets. A Power/BBC co-production, Archangel was produced by Christopher Hall and directed by
Jon Jones. Jessica Pop and Laura Mackie are the executive producers, with Justin Bodle as the executive producer for Power.

“Archangel is a prime example of the ‘Positively
Entertaining’ programming we are dedicated to providing to our growing
audience,” said Brandon Burgess, the chairman and CEO of ION Media Networks.
“We believe our strong lineup of off-net series, like Boston Legal and NCIS, combined with a quality slate of theatrical films and
made-for-television movies, will continue to attract viewers looking for the
broad-based entertaining programming only found on ION Television.”

“Archangel is the kind of quality, sweeping thriller that
audiences have come to expect from RHI,” said Robert Halmi, Jr., the president
and CEO of RHI Entertainment. “It will keep audiences on the edge of their
seats and make them rethink everything they assumed they knew about an
important chapter in recent history.”
