The countdown to alien invasion is ticking, and to keep us on tenter hooks, ABC has released 8 whole minutes of their re-imagining of 1980's classic alien invasion show, V.
Much like the Summer's surprise other-worldly hit District 9 (which starred Sharlto Copely, pictured today as part of the new look A-Team), V follows the world's first encounter with an alien race when humungous spaceships hover over the world's 29 main cities. The seemingly unthreatening Visitors (otherwise known as V's) extend the hand of peace by generously sharing their advanced technology, but it soon becomes clear that their plan may not be altogether harmless.
Starring Lost's Elizabeth Mitchell, Stargate SG1's Morena Baccarin, Joel 4400 Gretsch, and Cashmere Mafia's Lourdes Benedicto, the cast also includes The Game Plan's Morris Chestnut, Smallville's Laura Vandervoort and newcomer Logan Huffman, as well as a blast from the past in the shape of Party of Five's Scott Wolf.
