'Salvation': Watch First 15 Minutes Of CBS's Asteroid Thriller

When the world's in danger of annihilation from an oncoming asteroid, every second counts. No one understands the importance of time more than CBS, who's giving fans the opportunity to watch the first 15 minutes of their new asteroid thriller, Salvation (premiering exclusively through EW):

Salvation centers on the unlikely pair of Liam Cole (Charlie Rowe, Red Band Society) and Darius Tanz (Santiago Cabrera, Big Little Lies), MIT grad student and tech superstar respectively, who team up with Pentagon official Grace Barrows (Jennifer Finnigan, Better with You) to stop an asteroid from colliding with earth in less than six months.

The 13-episode first season premieres Wednesday, July 12th at 9 p.m. ET on CBS. The cast also includes Jacqueline Byers (Roadies) as Jillian Hayes, Rachel Drance as Zoe Barrows, Shazi Raja (High Maintenance) as Amanda Charles, and Ian Anthony Dale (Hawaii Five-0) as Harris Edwards. Oscar-nominated director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (Esposados) will direct and executive producer the first episode.

Working from a story outlined based by Matt Wheeler, writers Liz Kruger and Craig Shapiro will also serve as executive producers with Alex Kurtzman, Heather Kadin, Peter Lenkov and Stuart Gillard for CBS Television Studios and in coordination with Secret Hideout.
