Billy Burke and Tracy Spiridakos star in NBC’s new action-adventure series Revolution. The one-hour drama is set to premiere on September 17, 2012.

Tracy Spiridakos stars as Charlie Matheson, Graham Rogers is Danny, Billy Burke plays Miles, Anna Lise Phillips is Maggie, Zak Orth is Aaron, and JD Pardo is Nate.

The Synopsis: What would you do without it all? In this epic adventure from J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot Productions and Supernatural‘s Eric Kripke, a family struggles to reunite in an American landscape where every single piece of technology — computers, planes, cars, phones, even lights — has mysteriously blacked out forever. A drama with sweeping scope and intimate focus, Revolution is also about family — both the family you’re born into and the family you choose.

This is a swashbuckling journey of hope and rebirth seen through the eyes of one strong-willed young woman, Charlie Matheson (Spiridakos), and her brother Danny (Rogers). When Danny is kidnapped by militia leaders for a darker purpose, Charlie must reconnect with her estranged uncle Miles (Burke), a former U.S. Marine living a reclusive life. Together, with a rogue band of survivors, they set out to rescue Danny, overthrow the militia, and ultimately re-establish the United States of America. All the while, they explore the enduring mystery of why the power failed, and if — or how — it will ever return.
