We haven’t talked much about Lifetime’s upcoming new series “The Lottery” since it falls more on the sci-fi side of the fence, but since the first teaser trailer just landed in our inbox, we thought we’d give you a peek.
Can you imagine a world where women have stopped giving birth? Lifetime brings viewers to the year 2025 with the premiere of the provocative new conspiracy thriller “The Lottery” on Sunday, July 20, at 10PM ET/PT.
Written by Timothy J. Sexton (Children of Men), the series stars Marley Shelton (Planet Terror, “Eleventh Hour”), Michael Graziadei (“American Horror Story”), David Alpay (“The Vampire Diaries”), Athena Karkanis (“Low Winter Sun”), Yul Vazquez (“Magic City”), Shelley Conn (“Terra Nova”), and Martin Donovan (The Haunting in Connecticut, “Homeland”).
“The Lottery” is produced by Timothy J. Sexton alongside Rick Eid (“Hostages”) and Dawn Olmstead (“Prison Break”). Danny Cannon (“CSI”) directed and executive produced the pilot, which is from Grady Girl Productions in association with Warner Horizon Television.
Synopsis:
Set within a dystopian future driven by a global fertility crisis, “The Lottery” reveals a world staring down the barrel of impending extinction as women have mysteriously stopped bearing children. After years of research, Dr. Alison Lennon (Shelton) and her team remarkably create 100 viable embryos. To determine which women will carry the prized embryos to term, a national lottery is held, and a battle over the control of the 100 embryos begins.
