US drama Person of Interest, currently airing in the UK on Channel 5, comes to DVD and Blu-ray on March 18th.
Written by Jonathan Nolan, co-writer of The Dark Knight, the series stars Jim Cavaziel (The Passion of The Christ, The Thin Red Line), Michael Emerson (Lost, Saw), Taraji P. Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Date Night) and Kevin Chapman (Mystic River, Unstoppable).
Cavaziel plays former elite CIA officer John Reese, now homeless and presumed dead following the death of the woman he loves.
When he is approached by a reclusive billionaire computer genius Harold Finch (Emerson) who lives under an assumed identity, they form a partnership to prevent and predict violent crimes using high-tech surveillance and their own brand of vigilante justice.
Utilising a computer system commissioned by the US government, and built by Finch himself after the attacks of 9/11, Reese and Finch are able to receive details of imminent crimes, but never know what the crime will be, or whether the person that they have been notified of is a perpetrator or victim.
The series is produced by JJ Abrams’ Bad Robot Productions.
