A trailer for TNT’s Falling Skies

3 January 2011 Rob Buckley 4 Comments

Steven Spielberg has a new TV series coming to TNT in June called Falling Skies. It stars Noah Wiley and here’s the plot:

FALLING SKIES opens in the chaotic aftermath of an alien attack that has left most of the world completely incapacitated. In the six months since the initial invasion, the few survivors have banded together outside major cities to begin the difficult task of fighting back. Each day is a test of survival as citizen soldiers work to protect the people in their care while also engaging in an insurgency campaign called 2nd Mass against the occupying alien force.
