Impulse is a new original series from The Bourne Identity and Edge of Tomorrow director Doug Liman. A spinoff to his 2008 film Jumper, the show will debut sometime this summer, with a 10-episode series order.
Jumper was based on a 1992 novel by Steven Gould, and followed a young man named David Rice who discovers he has the ability to teleport. At the time of the film’s release, Liman hinted at plans for a sequel, but the project never materialized.
Impulse, however, is based on the third book in Gould’s series, and tells the story of a 16-year-old girl named Henry Coles (Maddie Hasson), who discovers she has similar powers.
I enjoyed it more than the film..mostly coz the series didn't have Hayden Christensen, however, they wasted too much time on the sexual assault and everything related to this. Too much. They should have focused on different things.
Anyways, if they ever make a second season, now that they have dealt with the sexual assault and its consequences once and for all, it should get more interesting.
Shortform streaming service Quibi has ordered its first superhero show, with Doug Liman attached to direct it.
Liman's digital production company 30 Ninjas is also producing the show, called Crazy Talented. It's based on a short story by Jumper author Steven Gould — Liman directed a 2008 film based on that novel — and written by Michael Karnow (Alphas).
Quibi's description of the show reads, "The world's most powerful superheroes are trying to stop the world's most devastating threat — alien weapons falling into the wrong hands and obliterating life as we know it. At least that's what they've been told. In Crazy Talented, patients on a psych ward are convinced by a charismatic leader that their defects are actually extraordinary 'talents.' He's clearly out of his mind. But just because it's crazy doesn’t mean it isn't true."
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
Is the protagonist constantly sexually assaulted and hunted down by rapists? This is how it looks from what I read in this thread and from the thumbnails.
