“Supernatural” actor Colin Ford has been cast in the upcoming television adaptation of Steven King’s suspense thriller “Under the Dome.” The mini-series is under development by CBS network and is slated to debut on June 24.
Ford will star in the role of Joe, who is described as a “very smart kid who’s understandably freaked out when he discovers that the mysterious barrier covers the whole town — and both his parents are outside of it.”
The network has ordered 13 episodes of the series thus far and Nina Tassler, President of CBS entertainment, says it’s a perfect fit for T.V.:
“This is a great novel coming to the television screen with outstanding auspices and in-season production values to create a summer programming event,” said Tassler in a statement. “We’re excited to transport audiences Under the Dome and into the extraordinary world that Stephen King has imagined.”
