The wait is nearly over. TNT’s epic drama Falling Skies, basic cable’s #1 new series of last year, is set to return with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, June 17, at 9 p.m. (ET/PT). This season will continue its extraordinary story about life and survival in the wake of a catastrophic alien invasion. Noah Wyle (ER) stars as Tom Mason, a former college professor and father of three, who has become an unlikely leader for the 2nd Massachusetts civilian resistance group. Falling Skies comes to TNT from DreamWorks Television and is executive-produced by Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks Television heads Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank. Remi Aubuchon and Greg Beeman are also executive producers. Fans can find the latest Falling Skies news online at http://fallingskies.com and via twitter @FallingSkiesTNT.

Falling Skies chronicles the chaotic aftermath of an alien attack that has left most of the world completely incapacitated. In the nine months since the initial invasion, the few remaining 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 against the occupying alien force, whose nature and purpose remains a mystery.

Falling Skies, starring Noah Wyle, Moon Bloodgood, Will Patton, and Drew Roy, premieres with two back-to-back episodes on Sunday, June 17 at 9/8c on TNT.
