BBC America has released the first teaser trailer for the brand new sci-fi drama Intruders, based on the novel by Michael Marshall. Check it out below.

From writer and executive producer Glen Morgan (The X-Files), Intruders is about a secret society devoted to chasing immortality by seeking refuge in the bodies of others. The series stars Mira Sorvino (Psych) and John Simm (Life on Mars, Doctor Who).

From BBC America:

A contemporary, chilling, paranormal tale set in the moody Pacific Northwest, the (8×60) series spins a fascinating and complex web of drama. As strange, apparently unrelated events start happening, multiple story-lines – a missing wife, an assassin covering his crimes, a child on the run – begin to intertwine to reveal a conspiracy that will forever change our understanding of human nature.

Jack Whelan (John Simm), a former LAPD cop with a troubled and violent history, finds the quiet idyllic life he has crafted with his wife, Amy (Mira Sorvino) shattered when she goes missing. While Jack is consumed with an investigation, which threatens his very core, a sinister agent named Richard Shepherd (James Frain) is embarking on a series of lethal executions. Meanwhile, a distraught little girl named Madison (Millie Brown) runs away from home into a world of danger.

The 8-episode first season will premiere this summer on BBC America. The cable network is also distributing the show internationally.
