The series centers on the Shannon family who find themselves in a world with no hope. But when scientists discover a fracture in time, the idea of creating a portal back to the age of the dinosaurs seems like man’s only chance of continued existence. Joining the pilgrimage of settlers to Terra Nova, the Shannon family looks forward in anticipation to a new life and renewed hope. Guiding his family through this new world of limitless beauty, mystery and terror is Jim Shannon (Jason O’Mara), a devoted father with a checkered past. His wife, Elisabeth Shannon (Shelley Conn), is a trauma surgeon and the newest addition to Terra Nova’s medical team. Rounding out the family is 17-year old son Josh (Landon Liboiron), 15-year-old daughter Maddy (Naomi Scott) and youngest daughter Zoe (Alana Mansour). Although Elisabeth’s medical training secured the Shannon ’s a precious spot on the pilgrimage, a secret about their family soon endangers their place in this new utopia.
Along with blue skies, towering waterfalls and lush vegetation, the terrain of Terra Nova is teeming with danger – and not just of the man-eating dinosaur variety. As time goes by it will become clear that not everyone on this mission has the same idea of how to best save mankind; in fact, there may be forces intent on destroying this new world before it even begins. The 2-hour Philippine premiere of Terra Nova airs this January 12, Thursday at 7PM on Jack TV.
