After months of waiting, UK viewers can finally see the new V when it premiers on SCI FI next Tuesday (13th April) with a 2-episode double bill.

As in the 1980′s original, mysterious Visitors come to Earth with a message of hope and peace but all’s not what it seems and sceptical humans begin to develop an agenda of their own – resistance.

The show tars Elizabeth Mitchell (Lost) as FBI agent Erica Evans, Morris Chestnut as Ryan Nichols, Joel Gretsch as Father Jack, with Morena Baccarin (Firefly) as Anna, the alien’s beautiful leader, and Scott Wolf (Party of Five) as Chad Decker.

We were lucky enough to watch the opening episode last year and, though we had some reservations, came away feeling the show has a lot of potential.

To help whet your appetite we have this great interview with key members of the cast:
