Summer is not known to be an exciting time in television, with reruns filling the airwaves on many channels. But CBS has a summer suspense drama to entertain the masses while they wait for the fall season premieres. Created by writers Liz Kruger and Craig Shapiro, Salvation is the one to watch this summer!
Originally announced to be in development in September 2013, October 2016 brought Salvation a rare and coveted straight-to-series order with CBS for a 13-episode season. With the pilot executively produced and directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks Later), Salvation promises to be a deeply intense and powerful show. CBS Entertainment President Glenn Miller has said of the show, “Salvation is the type of fast-paced, dramatic ride that viewers look for in a summer event series. We’re excited to launch another high-concept, highly promotable show with great auspices that adds to our roster of year-round, original scripted programming.”
What does that fast-paced and dramatic ride entail for viewers? Salvation looks to be the Armageddon of 2017 television, focusing on the peril surrounding an asteroid set to hit Earth in six months. MIT grad student Liam Cole (Charlie Rowe) and technology superstar Darius Tanz (Santiago Cabrera) bring the news of the discovered asteroid to low-level Pentagon official Grace Darrow (Jennifer Finnigan). Also starring Jacqueline Byers, Ian Anthony Dale, Shazi Raja, and Rachel Drance, Salvation brings the danger level up to eleven with the fate of the planet in jeopardy!
Get a glimpse of the show’s full length trailer released by CBS this May right here!
Salvation is slated to premiere on July 12, 2017 at 9pm ET/PT on CBS. Are you excited for it or are you afraid no asteroid will ever live up to the monster taken down by Bruce Willis and his drilling team?

There is no one more noted for their compassion and drive for the conservation of chimpanzees than Jane Goodall. Her work has been well documented over her almost 60-year career and she even established the Jane Goodall Institute in 1970 to further advocate for chimps and archive data related to their protection.
Now, 20th Century Fox has partnered with the Jane Goodall Institute to provide care for rescued chimpanzees, many of whom are victims of the illegal commercial bushmeat and pet trades.
The rescued chimps live on three forested island sites and a mainland sanctuary site at the Institute’s Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Center in Republic of Congo. The sites give the animals a chance to live in an environment that mimics the kind of habitat from which they were stolen, and also offers them the chance to build their own communities as they do in the wild and as the apes in War for the Planet of the Apes do as well. This collaboration will benefit the nearly 150 chimpanzees housed at the site.
Additionally, the institute has named the largest island site after Caesar, the Planet of the Apes franchise’s hero chimpanzee, as a thank you to 20th Century Fox.
In a statement announcing the team-up, Goodall said, “I think that the Planet of the Apes series makes people think about the apes and perhaps our relationship to them. And anything that makes us think about our own humanity in relation to the rest of the animal kingdom is important. So I think the series has helped.”
The film’s director Matt Reeves reiterated Goodall’s thoughts and expressed his gratitude to the Jane Goodall Institute for the tireless work they do in rehabilitating these animals.
“It is an honor and a privilege to partner with the Jane Goodall Institute in providing needed care for our closest living animal relatives,” Reeves said. “Over the course of filming Caesar’s cinematic journey, it’s fascinated me to learn so much about apes and chimpanzees, these amazing sentient animals who organize, strategize, and even socialize in much the same way as humans. Our hope is this reimagined Apes franchise will spark a fresh awareness, compassion, and respect for these majestic species for generations to come.”
A new promo has also been released and while it does offer glimpses at a few new scenes from War for the Planet of the Apes, it more concentrates on the admirable work provided by the Jane Goodall Institute.
War for the Planet of the Apes opens in theaters July 14, 2017.
