It's not a remake of the 1963's TV show or the 1993's movie of the same name, but it's a total reinvention of the universe. Mike Ferro (Boyd Holbrook) is wrongly accused for putting a bomb in the Los Angeles subway. And while trying to prove his innocence he is chased by agent Clay Bryce, played by none other than Kiefer Sutherland. The show can be watched on the Quibi app starting August 3rd.

The question is, will they succeed in putting all their differences aside for the good of humanity?
