New The Eleventh Hour Promos

August 17, 2008 Written by Nix

A lot of things about the new CBS sci-fi show The Eleventh Hour appeals to me. One is finally seeing the great actor Rufus Sewell finally play something other than a smarmy evil European for once; and the other is the idea of the gorgeous Marley Shelton playing an ass-kicking bodyguard to Sewell’s scientist character. That’s pretty new, you gotta admit, since usually it’s the other way around. I’m dying to see how the dynamics of that switcheroo works onscreen, if it does, that is. Anyways, new promos for the show have popped up online.

Based on the limited British sci-fi series of the same name that starred Patrick Stewart, the American remake centers on Jacob Hood (Rufus Sewell), a special science adviser to the government who, with his feisty female bodyguard Rachel (Marley Shelton) in tow, saves people from the worst abuses of science.
