Kim Delaney, Beau Bridges and David Cubitt will star in a sequel to NBC's hit miniseries 10.5., reports Variety.
Delaney will reprise her role as top seismologist Dr. Samantha Hill in 10.5: Apocalypse, while Bridges is back as President Hollister and Cubitt returns as Dr. Jordan Fisher.
Actors joining the cast for the second disaster include Frank Langella, who will play Dr. Hill's father. Also added are Dean Cain, Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon, Oliver Hudson, Carlos Bernard, Carly Pope and Tamara Hope. Melissa Sue Anderson and Barbara Eve Harris will also star.
10.5: Apocalypse picks up in the aftermath of the original chain of events in 10.5, when another round of quakes threaten to destroy North America. Delaney's character discovers that her father's earlier, discredited seismographic hypothesis may actually be correct and could portend greater doom.
The sequel, which began filming last week in Montreal, will air on NBC sometime this fall. 10.5 writer/director John Lafia will also write, direct and co-executive produce the sequel "Apocalypse". |
