TNT has just revealed the below key art for the first season of their upcoming series, “Legends,” set to premiere Wednesday, August 13, at 9 p.m. (ET/PT). The suspenseful new drama follows an undercover agent, who is plunged into a terrifying mystery over his own identity. “Legends” stars Screen Actors Guild Award winner Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones,” The Lord of the Rings). Based on the award-winning book by master spy novelist Robert Littell, “Legends” is being produced by Fox 21, with Howard Gordon “Homeland,” “24”), Alexander Cary (“Homeland,” “Lie to Me”) and Jonathan Levin (“Charmed”), Brad Turner (“24”) and showrunner David Wilcox (“Fringe”) serving as executive producers.
In “Legends,” Bean plays Martin Odum, an undercover agent working for the FBI’s Deep Cover Operations (DCO) division. Martin has the uncanny ability to transform himself into a completely different person for each job. But he begins to question his own identity when a mysterious stranger suggests that Martin isn’t the man he believes himself to be.
“Legends” also stars Ali Larter (“Heroes”) as Crystal McGuire, a fellow operative who has a history with Martin; Morris Chestnut (“American Horror Story,” “Nurse Jackie”) as Tony Rice, a smart, quick-witted and charming DCO agent; Tina Majorino (“Grey’s Anatomy,” “True Blood”) as Maggie Harris, the newest member of the DCO team; Steve Harris (“The Practice,” “Awake”) as Nelson Gates, the director of the DCO Task Force; and Amber Valletta (“Revenge”) as Sonya Odum, Martin’s ex-wife; and Mason Cook (The Lone Ranger) as Martin’s pre-teen son, Aiden.
