To everyone’s surprise, Syfy decided to reimagine Terry Gilliam's 1995 classic 12 MONKEYS for the small screen, and now we’re just over a month away from its premiere on Friday, January 16, 2015, at 9pm ET/PT. To this point we’ve seen trailers, teasers and stills, but today we’re getting our first look at the series’ first official one-sheet. If you missed the most recent trailer, check it out HERE, it's actually looking pretty solid. Take a look at the poster below!
Here’s what you can expect from this one:
Inspired by the classic blockbuster film, which commemorates its 20th anniversary next year, “12 Monkeys” explores the provocative story of a time traveler from a decimated future in a high-stakes race against the clock. Utilizing a dangerous and untested method of time travel, he journeys from 2043 to the present day on a mission to locate and eradicate the source of a deadly plague that will all but annihilate the human race.
12 Monkeys stars Aaron Stanford (as time-traveler Cole), Amanda Schull (Dr. Cassandra Railly), Kirk Acevedo (Ramse), Barbara Sukowa (Jones), and Noah Bean (Aaron Marker). Additional key recurring roles include Tom Noonan “(Damages,” “Hell on Wheels”) as a mysterious villain and Emily Hampshire (“Rookie Blue”) as mental patient Jennifer Goines.
