Another pilot is coming from The CW, and it looks to be one of disastrous proportions. Like literally! Yep, Armageddon will once again put mankind at death’s door with “Cordon.”
According to Deadline “The Vampire Diaries” and “The Originals”‘ showrunner Julie Plec and director David Nutter will be bringing the series to our televisions. Based upon the original Belgian series created by Carl Joos for Eyeworks, “Cordon” is in the vein of “Under the Dome.”

When a deadly epidemic breaks out in Atlanta, a large city quarantine is quickly enforced, leaving those stuck on the inside to fight for their lives. Loved ones are tragically torn apart, and the society that grows inside the cordon reveals both the devolution of humanity and the birth of unlikely heroes.
Plec wrote the script with Nutter, helmer of the pilots for The CW’s “Arrow” and “The Flash,” directing. The two executive produce for Warner Bros. TV, where they are based; My So-Called Company; and Eyeworks.
