In addition to a new poster, Powers co-creator Brian Michael Bendis has
announced that the live-action 10-episode series will hit the Playstation
Network on March 10th.
"It
is my honor and privilege to officially tell you that PlayStation will be
releasing the first three episodes on March 10th followed by the debut of a new
episode every Tuesday. The first episode will be free for everyone at
PlayStation.com/Powers and the full season will be available free to members of
PlayStation Plus…which you should have already because it’s awesome."
Ok let me just go and buy a console, the membership to Playstation Plus and i'm all set, wait a minute...
Releasing the show
exclusively on the Playstation Network is both a stroke of genius and a highly
risky move. On the one hand, you have the ability to reach the worldwide
audience without too much hassle and almost instantaneously, on the other only
those with the console can access it, and let's hope the online service isn't
attacked again.
Co-created by Michael Avon Oeming, Powers stars Sharlto Copley, Susan
Heyward, Eddie Izzard, Olesya Rulin, Noah Taylor, Max Fowler, Adam Godley, and
Michelle Forbes.
"Powers,"
an edgy dramatic series from Sony Pictures Television and inspired by the
graphic novel series of the same name, follows the lives of two homicide
detectives, Christian Walker (Copley) and Deena Pilgrim (Heyward), who are
assigned to investigate cases involving people with extraordinary abilities,
referred to as “Powers.” Set amidst today’s paparazzi culture, Powers asks the
questions, what if the world was full of superheroes who aren’t actually heroic
at all? What if all that power was just one more excuse for mischief, mayhem, murder,
and endorsement deals? Enter the men and women of the Powers Division, the only
people brave enough to go up against the overpaid, commercialized, superhumans
who glide through the sky imposing their power over the crowds below who both
worship and fear them.
