RHI Sets Premiere for Mini-Series on ION

NEW YORK, May 29: RHI
Entertainment’s four-hour original mini-series The Summit will air in its entirety during ION Television’s RHI
Movie Weekend block on Sunday,
June 15, at 7 p.m.

The Summit features the preparation for an annual G8 Summit
meeting, which becomes threatened by bio-terrorism, causing a cover-up to go
into action. The Summit is a
Media Headquarters and Shaftesbury Films production, in association with Power.
Christina Jennings, Scott Garvie and Justin Bodle are executive producers.

“The Summit will keep viewers on the edge of their seats,”
said Robert Halmi, Jr., the president and CEO of RHI Entertainment. “It is a
compelling story that feels entirely plausible in today’s world. The Summit will undoubtedly be the subject of much
water-cooler conversation on the Monday morning after it airs.”

“ION Television is proud
to continue presenting original films from RHI that are exciting audiences and
advertisers alike,” commented Brandon Burgess, the chairman and CEO of ION
Media Networks. “The Summit
raises the bar yet again, and underscores our commitment to provide true event
programming every weekend.”
