In June, Warner and Turner Home Entertainment will bring Falling Skies: The Complete First Season to Blu-ray. Executive produced by Steven Spielberg (War of the Worlds), Graham Yost (Justified), and Robert Rodat (Saving Private Ryan), this sci-fi television program stars Noah Wyle (Donnie Darko) as a former history professor helping to lead the revolt against a horde of vicious alien conquerors.
From Warner's official press release:
"Falling Skies chronicles the chaotic aftermath of an alien attack that leaves most of the world completely incapacitated. In the six months since the initial invasion, survivors band together to begin the difficult task of fighting back against the aggressive aliens. Outside of Boston, history professor Tom Mason (Wyle) helps lead a small army named 2nd Massachusetts in the battle of their lives to preserve their families and what's left of humanity.
