DESCRIPTION:
(from Spike TV's press release, March 2015) Spike TV has partnered with Legendary Pictures to develop an original scripted series, "Emergency Broadcast," that features a group of government first responders who confront the planet's most fantastic crises and disasters. Based on an original idea by Thomas Tull, Chairman and CEO of Legendary, the project reteams Legendary with longtime collaborator Max Brooks, the best-selling and critically-acclaimed author ("World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War," "Zombie Survival Guide"), who serves as a consultant on the project. "Emergency Broadcast" is a format-breaking series about everyday heroes who tirelessly work together to combat national and global catastrophes. With expertise in the fields of diplomacy and military intelligence - they face daunting hazards, including everything from apocalyptic meteor showers to alien invasions. Consulting the most preeminent crises leaders in the country, the creators of "Emergency Broadcast" aim to a give a more realistic, never-before-seen take on how America would actually contend with such extraordinary encounters.
