USA Network will be premiering the new dramatic thriller Dig on Thursday, March 5, 2015 at 10pm ET/PT starring Jason Isaacs, Anne Heche, Alison Sudol, and David Costabile. The action series was created and executive produced by Tim Kring (Heroes) and Gideon Raff (Homeland), and during last year’s San Diego Comic-Con, I had the opportunity to interview Kring to find out the inside story on the new series.
During our chat, Kring discussed the premise, his cast, and the complications they encountered and had to overcome while actually shooting the series.
Watch the interview:
The Plot:
DIG tells the story of a murder mystery set against the backdrop of modern-day Jerusalem, a city shrouded in ancient intrigue. FBI agent Peter Connelly (Isaacs) has had his fair share of heartbreak. Anxious to leave his personal demons behind, Peter takes a job stationed in Israel under the guidance of his new boss, and occasional lover, Lynn Monahan (Heche).
When he sets out to solve the murder of a young American, Peter soon finds himself embroiled in an international mystery that delves into the Holy Land’s darkest secrets. What he discovers is a conspiracy thousands of years in the making that threatens to change the course of history. While Peter races to figure out what it all means, he quickly finds that he may not be the only one searching for answers.
