Carlton Cuse is a busy man with the number of shows he has on the air and now he’ll have another one with Colony. USA Network has picked up a ten episode order for the show that will star Josh Holloway of Lost and Sarah Wayne Callies from The Walking Dead. The series is one that’s a co-production between Legendary Television and Universal Cable Producions, which makes it surprising that it didn’t end up on the Syfy channel. The series marks the second order for the Legendary TV side of the company.
“Carlton and Ryan have created an intriguing ride that uniquely provides a humanistic take,” said USA president Chris McCumber. “Josh and Sarah have incredible on-screen chemistry and brilliantly play a couple making tough choices to protect their family in an uncertain world.”
Cuse currently has three series out there with Bates Motel and The Returned on A&E and The Strain, making Colony his fourth.
Plot concept: Set in the near future, Colony takes place in Los Angeles, which exists in a state of occupation by a force of outside intruders. Some people choose to collaborate with the authorities and benefit from the new order, while others rebel and suffer the consequences.
