“The Librarians: The Next Chapter” will debut on TNT with a two-night premiere event starting Sunday, May 25.
“The Librarians” ran for four seasons from 2014 to 2018 and was itself based on TNT’s film series of the same name.
The fantasy series followed the adventures of the custodians of a magical repository of the world’s most powerful and dangerous supernatural artifacts.
As a spin-off of the original “Librarians” series, “The Next Chapter” follows the time-traveling Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan) who finds himself stuck in the present.
The official synopsis reads: “When Vikram returns to his castle in Belgrade, Serbia and discovers that it is now a museum, he inadvertently releases magic across the continent. With the help of a new team of eclectic heroes, including a savant in world history, a scientific genius, and a highly skilled Guardian, Vikram has only six months to clean up the mess he made.”
The twelve-episode series features McGowan (“Jamestown”), Jessica Green (“The Outpost”), Olivia Morris (“Hotel Portofino”) and Bluey Robinson (“Britannia”), with Christian Kane reprising his role as Jacob Stone.
The series is produced by Electric Entertainment with “The Pitt” star Noah Wyle producing.
