If you’ve ever imagined a crossover featuring Dean Winchester and McSteamy working together to save the day, your dreams are about to come true.
Prime Video is set to launch its exciting new action series, Countdown, crafted specifically for fans of dynamic television.
Featuring the talents of Jensen Ackles and Eric Dane, Countdown is scheduled to debut on June 25, and it promises to deliver the perfect mix of chaos, heroism, and undeniable charisma.
Created by Derek Haas, known for his work on the One Chicago and FBI series, Countdown begins with the shocking murder of a Homeland Security officer in broad daylight.
Detective Mark Meachum (Ackles) is thrust into a secretive task force, assembled from the best agents across law enforcement.
However, what starts as a straightforward murder investigation quickly escalates into a high-stakes race to avert a catastrophe that threatens millions.
Fans of Ackles are already familiar with his unique blend of charm, tenacity, and a touch of emotional vulnerability.
After his iconic role battling supernatural forces in Supernatural, alongside his time as a soldier with Vought and his adventures through multiverses, Ackles’ return to a more grounded role in law enforcement evokes a sense of nostalgia — albeit in a world fraught with peril.
In contrast, Dana brings a calm authority to his role in Countdown, a trademark quality that made him a notable figure in television. Whether you recall his portrayal of Dr. Mark Sloan in Grey’s Anatomy or recognize his more complex character in Euphoria, Dane has a knack for portraying characters who are the stabilizing force amidst chaos.
The series boasts a stellar supporting cast, including Jessica Camacho (The Flash, Watchmen), Violett Beane (Death and Other Details), Elliot Knight (The Boys), and Uli Latukefu (Young Rock), ensuring an ensemble rich with both energy and emotional depth.
The action will kick off with a thrilling three-episode premiere on June 25, followed by new episodes released weekly, culminating in the season finale on September 3.
This pacing allows ample opportunity for character development, adrenaline-fueled chases, and the kind of enthralling cliffhangers that Prime Video excels at delivering.
With Haas at the helm and two formidable television stars leading the way, Countdown is shaping up to be the ideal summer binge-watch: stylish, intense, and filled with an exceptional ensemble cast.
Mark your calendars and get ready — the countdown begins now.
