The network’s planning to air Extant next summer. Mickey Fisher wrote the script and is serving as an executive producer along with Steven Spielberg, Greg Walker, Brooklyn Weaver, Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank.
“Extant is a very original concept with layers of humanity, mystery and surprise that reveal itself throughout the script,” stated Nina Tassler, President of CBS Entertainment, announcing the series. “Our partnership with Amblin for Under the Dome showed that viewers respond to high-quality event programming in the summer. We look forward to building on that with Extant and offering CBS audiences another high-concept, unique event for summer television.”
The Plot:
Extant is a futuristic thriller about a female astronaut trying to reconnect with her family when she returns after a year in outer space. Her experiences lead to events that ultimately will change the course of human history.
