Syfy has today announced the premiere date for its upcoming original drama series The Ark created by Dean Devlin and Jonathan Glassner.
The 12-episode first season will begin on Wednesday, February 1 at 10/9c.
Set 100 years in the future, planetary colonization missions have begun as a necessity to help secure the survival of the human race. The first of these missions on a spacecraft known as Ark One encounters a catastrophic event causing massive destruction and loss of life. With more than a year left to go before reaching their target planet, a lack of life-sustaining supplies and loss of leadership, the remaining crew must become the best versions of themselves to stay on course and survive.
The drama stars Christie Burke, Richard Fleeshman, Reece Ritchie, Stacey Read and Ryan Adams.
Devlin and Glassner executive produce with Marc Roskin and Rachel Olschan-Wilson. Jonathan English and Steve Lee serve as producers. Electric Entertainment and Balkanic Media produce.
