So it seems that all along Ronald Emmerich has been planning his 2012 disaster flick to be somewhat of a cornerstone from which to build a TV Series?
While on the red carpet for his new flick, Emmerich told Entertainment Weekly, “The plan is that it is 2013 and it’s about what happens after the disaster; it is about the resettling of Earth. That is very, very fascinating.”
“We said to Mark, ‘Why don’t you do a TV show that picks up where the movie leaves off and call it 2013?’ I think it will focus on a group of people who survived but not on the boats … maybe they were on a piece of land that was spared or one that became an island in the process of the crust moving. There are so many possibilities of what they could do and I’d be excited to watch it.”
With Lost trying to go out while the fire is still hot, there will be a void in the schedule for a good survival setting drama.
It seems so far that there is nothing supernatural about 2012 and I would be willing to give an episodic drama series about people surviving in the left over world.
