Best know for her role as Lt. Blair Williams in 2009’s Terminator: Salvation, actress/model Moon Bloodgood has never fared too well on TV. The 34-year-old star of NBC’s time-traveling drama “Journeyman” and ABC’s time-altering thriller “Day Break” saw both series rapidly canceled (the latter after airing only six episodes) in ’06 and ’07 respectively.

Regardless, Bloodgood is making her return to television this year as child therapist Anne Glass in the Steven Spielberg produced TNT alien-invasion series “Falling Skies.” The show costars “ER’s” Noah Wyle, Jessy Schram, Drew Roy, The Fourth Kind’s Will Patton and The Last Airbender’s Seychelle Gabriel.

The official synopsis reads:

In FALLING SKIES, Wyle stars as a former college professor who becomes the leader of a group of soldiers and civilians struggling against an occupying alien force. Bloodgood co-stars as Anne Glass, a therapist who works with the surviving children to help them cope with the traumatic situation.

The series also Seychelle Gabriel as Lourdes, an orphaned teenager who helps run the group’s commissary. Will Patton plays a fierce leader of the resistance.

FALLING SKIES is executive-produced by Steven Speilberg along with DreamWorks Television heads Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank and screenwriter Robert Rodat.

Rodat, who earned an Oscar^® nomination for his screenplay for Saving Private Ryan, wrote the pilot from an idea he co-conceived with Spielberg. Verheiden and Greg Beeman (Heroes, Smallville) are co-executive producers.

The pilot was directed by Carl Franklin (One False Move, Out of Time).

Bloodgood and Wyle will be part of a “Falling Skies” Q&A panel at Comic-Con on July 23.
