Couldn't find a thread for this but I thought there was one.

Anyways, the trailer for this show just released. Doesn't look too bad. I'm kind of looking forward to it. Check it out!

Looks interesting i will set my Tivo for this.

STARSCREAM · 05-18-2010, 09:26 PM

My question is this, why doesn't he have his face covered????!!! I mean cmon, you would recognized him! When they showed him on tv you could see his whole freakin' face.

Looks like they took alot from Batman on this series. I'll give it a watch and see how it is.

detective392 · 05-18-2010, 09:31 PM

Wow it looked a lot better then I thought it did. Really looking forward to this and The Event after seeing the trailers for them. Hopefully they can make it for more then one season.

I was thinking the same thing when I was watching it. I guess we'll see how they handle it during the season.

Yeah, this show wasn't even on my radar until I saw this trailer. Totally surprised at least how well the trailer looked. Looks like they may have spent some cash on the special effects.

Kyo28 · 05-19-2010, 09:08 AM

The premise of the show is right up my alley, so I'll be checking this one out!

Moefiz · 05-19-2010, 02:03 PM

Looks pretty good...will be checking it out for sure.

Mine either, I read about it months ago and thought it sounded terrible. I was just quite surprised by that trailer, and it looks far better than I would have guessed. This might stand a fighting chance. By premiering it mid-season it probably has a better shot and less competition, depending on which night of the week they put it on.

We'll see...I thought the same of Journeyman and that got cancelled. Let's hope NBC will give it a chance.

Reminds me of Spawn in some ways. I will give it a chance but don't see it lasting more than a season or two.

KilloWertz · 05-19-2010, 11:49 PM

Thanks for posting that trailer. The main one they have posted on the show's page on NBC.com made the show look terrible, but this one makes it look FAR better. It actually looks like it could be good, instead of being something I only watch because of Summer Glau.

Lord_Stewie · 05-19-2010, 11:56 PM

looks interesting but I am worried to get interested since NBC seems to be cutting and canceling a lot of shows.

mredman · 05-20-2010, 06:54 PM

looks very good. To bad we have to wait to mid-season

Wow you have that much faith in an new NBC show? You should be more worried about it lasting an episode or two, than a season or two.

My regular fall schedule is so jam packed that if it didn't premiere in mid-season I'd have no chance to see it.

doctorD · 06-09-2010, 02:48 PM

It appears that Vinnie Jones will be joining the cast in a regular role.

Quote:

He was spotted in the trailer for NBC's "The Cape" last month (see below), but it was unknown how big Vinnie Jones' character would be.

The Hollywood Reporter says that Jones has now joined the cast as a series regular on the midseason drama. He'll play Scales, a frightening man with a freakish skin condition that gives him the appearance of green and gold scales. The casting marks his first regular TV role.

Jones joins previously cast regulars David Lyons, Keith David and Summer Glau.

Goodbye Franklin Mott from True Blood, hello super-villain on The Cape! EW talked to James Frain on a red carpet recently and the English actor had pretty encouraging things to say about NBC’s upcoming drama involving a cop (Eat Pray Love’s David Lyons) who makes himself into a masked hero after being framed for a crime. NBC has yet to schedule the drama, which is slated for a midseason release.

“It’s a superhero show and I play the supervillain,” Frain told EW. “It’s not that big a stretch. No one has any real powers. It’s about cunning and skill. It’s very serious in its intent. But it’s also light in the way it’s played. It is closer to Batman in that the people don’t have powers. Supervillain equals job security as long as people like the show and we get picked up.”

Frain plays Peter Fleming in the drama that also stars Summer Glau and Keith David. “It is a completely new story. It is not based on a comic book or an old character. It is a completely new and inventive mythology. The show creator Tom Wheeler has the whole first season mapped out. He has the whole thing in his mind and he is slowly revealing it to us. And it’s cool. I really hope people will give it a chance to reveal itself to them. We are in the thick of shooting and we are supposed to come on in January. Wish us luck.”

Still no schedule for this yet...

, was hoping it would have been on by now.

doctorD · 11-11-2010, 03:06 AM

I read somewhere mid-season meaning January.

mredman · 11-11-2010, 03:13 PM
