HBO’s The Leftovers has been bumped back a couple of weeks and will now find its way onto the network’s lineup on June 29, 2014 at 10pm ET/PT rather than June 15th. In addition to announcing the new premiere date, the network released the first full trailer for the series from showrunner Damon Lindelof (Lost) and novelist Tom Perrotta.

The Leftovers‘ trailer sets up the world but doesn’t overplay its hand while laying out the basic premise of the series (it’s about The Rapture).

The cast includes Justin Theroux, Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston, Liv Tyler, Charlie Carver, Max Carver, Carrie Coon, Ann Dowd, Michael Gaston, Emily Meade, Annie Q, Margaret Qualley, Amanda Warren, and Chris Zylka. Season one will have a ten-episode run.
