Stephen King And Spielberg’s New TV Series ‘Under The Dome’ – Teaser Trailer + Details

The first teaser trailer for Stephen King and Steven Spielberg‘s upcoming tv series ‘Under the Dome’, aired during the Super Bowl this year. Based on King’s sci-fi novel, the drama is set to premiere on Monday, June 24th at 10 pm, and it will have 13 episodes.

‘LOST’ writer, Brian K. Vaughan penned the series, and the director of the Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Niels Arden Ople, is manning the cameras for the first episode.

Here’s the synopsis, followed by the trailer:

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester’s Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener’s hand is severed as “the dome” comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when—or if—it will go away.

Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens—town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician’s assistant at the hospital, a selectwoman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing—even murder—to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn’t just short. It’s running out.
