NYCC '14: POWERS Trailer Has Arrived

FX wasn't able to launch a Powers series, but Sony TV has delivered. It's based on the comic created by Brian Michael Bendis, and stars Sharlto Copley ("A-Team") as 'Christian Walker' and Susan Heyward ("The Following") as 'Deena Pilgrim'. First trailer!

Thanks to the heads up from Rick or Treat
"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.

Still not sure about this. I like some of the actors and it's free on PS plus, so I'll check it out when it comes out.

some of the actors look cheap and so does the quality at times. i don't know, I'm on the borderline for this one.

hmmm....I'll reserve judgment for the moment, but the trailer seems a little..."subdued"(aka-underwhelming).

ah, so this serie shas profanity in it. anyway, it's about time something frombendis gets adapted including bednis as the writer of the show. i always thought that his writing feels more like a tv series.

anyway, since sony and marvel are rumored to have a deal with spiderman hopefully we'll see andrew garfield be getting his own spiderman show for season when when TASM universe continues :)

So 1: not really feeling either way about this.
2: Is it ONLY gonna be on PS? Cause that's just asking people to pirate it.

lol, i'm glad i'm not the only one who felt like the preview was proud to say the actors can use the "f' word....good for them? the tone feels off, his voice isn't what I ever heard in my head for Christian......and the few clips don't show Deena acting like Deena.....ugh, this is a bummer. It doesn't look right, and Powers has always been a series I felt was made to be adapted....so could have been the next Walking Dead.

hmmmm I dont know, I was hoping it would resemble gotham a little bit just with added powers, looks a little cheap but I'll reserve judgement

Can I get this on my Playstation One? Although, I doubt I will have time to watch as finally getting Smackdown.

@nailbiter111

That's a tall order.

"Come Playstation The New Trailer For POWERS"......shit.

Hold on....I can think of something else.



I know you asked us to write a punny title, but instead I came away with a new appreciation for your job.

Well no duh it wasn't going to look like some cinematic masterpiece. Really the comic is about the interactions so don't expect to see Avengers like stuff in this show.

That being said it does appear they are going down the route that Walker actually misses his powers and the feeling it gave him as opposed to just enjoying being normal.

Copley and Noah Taylor look great. Story seems interesting too.

Looks a little cheap, but the overall direction seems strong. Will watch if I have the time.

Yeeeeeah, no. If they can't even make the show look good in a trailer that's a very bad sign. I'll stick with the comics. I'd have to go out of the way to see it anyway.

Kind of Agents of SHIELD quality but with cussing

Idk about this. Love the books, but it doesn't feel right. The lighting is really bad. I thought, based on the teaser poster that resembled the comic, it would be a bit more gritty and noir but I guess not. I'll be checking it out either way. Would love to have seen the original scrapped pilot they shot.
