Turner to Rep Falling Skies

HONG KONG: Turner Broadcasting System International is teaming up with TNT to bring the highly anticipated Steven Spielberg series Falling Skies, which debuts in June, to the international market. 

From DreamWorks Television, Falling Skies stars Noah Wyle (ER), along with Moon Bloodgood (Terminator Salvation), Will Patton (Armageddon) and Drew Roy (Secretariat). The series is set within the aftermath of an alien attack that left most of the world completely incapacitated. Steven Spielberg is the executive producer, along with DreamWorks Television heads Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank, Graham Yost (Justified, The Pacific) and screenwriter Robert Rodat.  

The U.S. rollout will be followed by premieres on TNT networks across the globe, and Turner Broadcasting System International will be handling syndication to third-party networks later in the year.
