FEEL THE EARTH MOVE AS NBC DEBUTS IT FOUR-HOUR MINISERIES
EVENT '10.5' DURING MAY SWEEPS
Published: January 14, 2004
BURBANK, Calif. -- January 14, 2003 -- NBC's seismic-thriller
miniseries "10.5" - starring Kim Delaney, Emmy Award winner Beau
Bridges and Fred Ward - will premiere during May sweeps, it was
announced at the network's January Press Tour by Jeff Zucker,
President, NBC Entertainment, News and Cable Group. The
groundbreaking drama is from executive producers Michael Jaffe,
Howard Braunstein ("Martha, Inc.: The Martha Stewart Story"), and
Gary Pearl ("Liberty Stands Still).
The earth-rattling four-hour miniseries -- named after a monstrous
and destructive "10.5" quake as registered on the noted Richter
scale -- stars Delaney ("NYPD Blue") as Dr. Samantha Hill, an
intellectual earthquake expert. Dr. Hill's theories and take-charge
attitude are put to the test when she is entrusted with the
responsibility of saving the West Coast from the biggest earthquake
ever recorded. Bridges ("The Agency") also stars as President Paul
Hollister who along with Roy Nolan, Executive Director of F.E.M.A
(Ward, "Sweet Home Alabama") attempts to coordinate aid to the
shattered West Coast in the wake of the massive earthquake.
Rounding out the cast are Dave Cubitt ("Robbery Homicide Division")
as Dr. Jordan Fisher, Hill's supervisor and former boyfriend; Dulé
Hill (NBC's "The West Wing") and Ivan Sergei (NBC's "Crossing
Jordan") as a pair of Los Angeles resident surgeons who struggle to
save lives against a tidal wave of incoming patients. John Schneider
("Smallville") and Kaley Cuoco ("8 Simple Rules") also star as Dr.
Hill's ex-husband and daughter who are trapped in the mountains when
the quakes begin to hit.
"10.5" is directed by John Lafia ("The Dead Zone," "Child's Play")
and is an Argosy-MAT IV production, with Jaffe-Braunstein and Pearl
Pictures. The teleplay written by Lafia, Ronnie Christensen ("Dark
Angel") and Chris Canaan ("The House on Turk Street"). Hallmark
Entertainment will distribute the film.
