About "V"

"V" PREMIERES TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 3 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) -- "V" is a re-imagining of the 1980s' miniseries about the world's first encounter with an alien race. With huge spaceships simultaneously appearing over 29 cities around the world, the Visitors (or Vs) seem to promote a message of peace. Through their generous offer to share advanced technology, the Vs quickly build a following that may be overlooking a more malevolent agenda.

"V" stars Elizabeth Mitchell as Erica Evans, Morris Chestnut as Ryan Nichols, Joel Gretsch as Father Jack, Lourdes Benedicto as Valerie, Logan Huffman as Tyler Evans, Laura Vandervoort as Lisa, with Morena Baccarin as Anna, and Scott Wolf as Chad Decker.

"V" is produced by The Scott Peters Company and HDFilms in association with Warner Bros. Television. Scott Peters (who wrote the pilot), Jeffrey Bell, Steve Pearlman and Jace Hall are executive producers. The pilot was directed by Yves Simoneau. "V" is broadcast in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC's HDTV format, with 5.1 channel sound and Spanish subtitles. A TV Parental guideline will be assigned closer to airdate.
