ABC has been seeding the media with its new fall show Flash Forward with extended video releases.  John Cho, the most recognizable Korean-American actor in Hollywood has a featured role in Flash Forward.  He’s having a breakout year with a big role in this summer’s Star Trek as Sulu and now he’s on a network show on ABC.  Perhaps breakout is not the appropriate word because he’s been climbing up the ladder year by year.  It’s very impressive that he’s had a long and steady history of work and now things are really paying off for him.  His most recent efforts have gotten him away from the Harold references of Harold and Kumar franchise.  Someday we’ll look back and say he was really the pioneer for Korean-American actors and paved the way.   So what’s Flash Forward all about?   It sounds like a crazy and inventive story line akin to Lost.

What if you saw your future 6 months from now? A glimpse of where you will be and who you will be with. Would you look forward to what was coming…or would you try to stop it?

A mysterious global event causes everyone to black out simultaneously for two minutes and seventeen seconds, and each person sees a glimpse of their lives six months from now. When they wake up, everyone is left wondering if what they saw will actually happen.

Los Angeles FBI Agent Mark Benford (Joseph Fiennes) is desperate to uncover why this happened and who or what is behind it. And he’s not the only one. Before long, everyone starts asking, “What did you see?” As Mark and his team struggle to figure out what caused this bizarre event, they begin to piece together the future by creating a huge database of people’s flash forwards from all over the world – The Mosaic Collective. No one knows what these flash forwards mean or exactly what the future really holds. But it is clear that across the globe people who’ve never met will somehow be intimately connected and will have an impact on each other’s lives in the next six months. Some will fear what’s coming, others excited; but not a single person will be unaffected.

Adapting award-winning author Robert J. Sawyer’s revolutionary novel, executive producers David S. Goyer (“The Dark Knight”) and Brannon Braga (24, Star Trek: Enterprise) invite you to embark on a journey to answer the question, “if you knew what your future held, what would you do?”
