First Look at Under the Dome!



We chatted about Under the Dome briefly back in December when the straight-to-series announcement came out, and I'm very excited to now get a chance to see what this based on a Stephen King book about a town under a dome will be like.

Here is the series description: "Under the Dome is the story of a small town in New England that is separated from the world by a clear dome. It demonstrates what happens to humanity when they’re cut off from the world they know."

Under the Dome stars Mike Vogel (Zach from Bates Motel), Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria in Twilight and New Moon), Colin Ford, Natalie Martinez, Alex Koch, Britt Robertson (Cassie from The Secret Circle), Nicholas Strong, Jolene Purdy, Aisha Hinds (Miss Jeanette from True Blood) and Dean Norris; and the series pilot will be directed by Niels Arden Oplev (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo / Män som hatar kvinnor).

It's also described as a 'summer event', and it begins Monday June 24, 2013 at 10PM on CBS and is slated for 13 episodes.

Normally I'd say check out more at the shows official webpage, and you can go there but sadly you can't see anything past the trailer without entering mailing information. I hope they free that up soon, even if it's thematic I'm not plunking info in to find out.  Until then, the Wikipedia Page for the show has great information to mull over and if you want to keep an eye out for vids, check out their YouTube Page.
