As we mentioned when we ran our recent feature on Syfy's upcoming sci-fi drama and video game Defiance, the approaching series had a pretty big presence at Comic Con in San Diego this year. In addition to ads all over the place (including the side of the Marriott and at the airport), the series and game were featured in a panel. For those of you who couldn't be there to see the cast, which includes Grant Bowler and Julie Benz, Syfy put the full panel on their site, and you can check it out here.
Defiance the game and the series won't debut until next year, which gives us plenty of time to anticipate them. The story takes place on earth after a universal war puts various alien races on earth where they're attempting to coexist with humans. The game and the series are set to play off one another, as they're both set in the same world. You can learn more about the series by watching the video below, which clocks in at a little under an hour and covers the whole panel featuring the cast, along with series co-creator Kevin Murphy and Trion World's Nick Beliaeff.
It definitely sounds like a challenging endeavor, creating a TV show and a video game that are meant to work together, but the project has a lot going for it, including a solid cast. We posted this feature earlier this week, which has some additional comments from the cast, Murphy and Beliaeff on the creation and development of Defiance.
