Seven has revealed that it will fastrack some new shows in September.
Among the titles are Heroes Reborn, The Player and Quantico. All three are expected to be hit US Shows.
Heroes Reborn
The groundbreaking series Heroes is being reborn in an epic 13-episode event series which will be fast tracked to Seven later this year along with two new action-thrillers. From Creator/Executive Producer Tim Kring, who imagined the original, critically acclaimed, breakout series Heroes, comes Heroes Reborn – a 13-episode event series that chronicles the lives of ordinary people who discover they possess extraordinary abilities.
A fresh crop of inspiring heroes take on the ultimate struggle between those with extraordinary abilities and those with nefarious motives to hunt and harness their powers. Epic adventures await these newly empowered allies as they cross paths with some of the original heroes and uncover their destinies as the potential saviours of mankind.
The Heroes Reborn cast features Zachary Levi (Chuck) and Ryan Guzman (The Boy Next Door), alongside heroes of the past including Hiro Nakamura (Masi Oka), Matt Parkman (Greg Grunberg), Mohinder Suresh (Sendhil Ramamurthy) and the Haitian (Jimmy Jean-Louis). Jack Coleman reprises his role as Noah Bennet aka H.R.G.
The Player
Wesley Snipes (Blade) and Philip Winchester (Strike Back) star in this action- packed Las Vegas thriller about a former military operative turned security expert who is drawn into a high-stakes game where an organisation of wealthy individuals gamble on his ability to stop some of the biggest crimes imaginable from playing out. From the Executive Producer of The Blacklist.
Quantico
In this edge-of-your-seat, sexy thriller, a diverse group of recruits has arrived at the FBI Quantico Base for training. They are the best, the brightest and the most vetted, so it seems impossible that one of them is suspected of masterminding the biggest attack on New York City since 9/11. Smash showrunner Josh Safran writes and executive produces with Mark Gordon (Grey’s Anatomy, Criminal Minds) and Nick Pepper.
Seven’s Director of Network Programming Angus Ross said: “Seven has the pick of the new US dramas and we want to bring them to our viewers as quickly as possible.”
