US ‘Scapists: Watch The First 9 Minutes Of Syfy’s ’12 Monkeys’

Briefly: Well, I can’t exactly watch it, but it doesn’t mean that I’m not excited about it.

Syfy has just debuted the first 9 minutes of its anticipated 12 Monkeys adaptation. The series’ follows the journey of a time traveler, Cole, from the post-apocalyptic future.  Using a dangerous and untested method of time travel, Cole arrives in the present day on a mission to locate and eradicate the source of a deadly plague that will eventually decimate 93.6% of the human race. Will Cole be able to save the fate of mankind or is mankind bound by fate? Taking place in the ravaged future of 2043 and the present day (2015), 12 Monkeys explores themes of destiny, fate, love and the possibility of second chances.”

I loved the film, and I’m definitely down for this adaptation (let’s just hope it doesn’t stink).

You can take a look at the preview below (bearing that you’re in the USA), and be sure to let me know how it is! 12 Monkeys premieres on January 16th!
