WATCH THE TRAILER

Zach Gilford ("Friday Night Lights") stars in the thriller alongside Sydney Park ("The Walking Dead"). Also joining the cast are Eden Estrella ("Furious 7", "The Fate of the Furious"), Usman Ally ("Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events", "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D"), and Lilan Bowden ("Andi Mack") as Jasmine.

"Lifeline", set in the not-too-distant future, centers around a little known life insurance company that sends its agents forward 33 days in time to prevent the accidental deaths of its clients. The company's best agent, Conner Hooks (Gilford), has never missed a save - until he takes on the most personal case of his life. When sixteen-year-old, Norah (Park) is orphaned on his watch, Conner pledges to protect her, even if that means putting his career at Lifeline - or his own life - in jeopardy.

"Lifeline" was written by Ben Freiburger and Grant Wheeler. Executive Producers for the series are Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia, Brian Gewirtz and Hiram Garcia for Seven Bucks Digital Studios and Dan Weinstein, Gary Binkow, Amee Dolleman, Michael Schreiber and Keith Samples for Studio71.
