12 Monkeys Promo Trailer Arrives Via Time TravelSyfy has given a series green light to “12 Monkeys,” a drama based on the 1995 Universal Pictures film directed by Terry Gilliam, and a promo trailer for it has sneaked online quietly all under-the-radar like. Check it out, and look for more official stuff from Syfy later.

The series is produced by Universal Cable Productions and Atlas Entertainment, producer of the original theatrical film.

Said Dave Howe, “‘12 Monkeys’ is a captivating time travel adventure and high stakes race against the clock. We are thrilled to add it to our slate of engaging and thought-provoking new scripted projects, including the recently announced event series ‘Ascension’ and the second season renewal of ‘Helix’ from Ron Moore.”

Atlas Entertainment’s Charles Roven (American Hustle, Man of Steel, The Dark Knight Trilogy) and Richard Suckle (American Hustle, The International), will executive produce. Roven produced the original film. Jake Kurily will serve as Atlas’ executive on the series.

Terry Matalas and Travis Fickett (“Nikita”), writers of the pilot, will serve as co-executive producers with Natalie Chaidez (“In Plain Sight,” “V,” “Heroes”) as executive producer/showrunner. Jeffrey Reiner (“Friday Night Lights”) directed and served as executive producer on the pilot.

Synopsis:
“12 Monkeys,” starring Aaron Stanford (“Nikita,” X-Men: The Last Stand, X2), Amanda Schull (“Suits,” “Pretty Little Liars”), Noah Bean (“Nikita,” Damages”), and Kirk Acevedo (“Fringe”), follows the journey of a time traveler (Stanford) from the post-apocalyptic future who appears in present day on a mission to locate and eradicate the source of a deadly plague that will eventually decimate the human race.

The series is slated to premiere in January of 2015.
