Terra Nova just keeps getting better–and it hasn’t even started yet!  The Steven Spielberg/Peter Chernin sci-fi drama is starting to look like a 24 reunion nowadays.  Executive producers Brandon Braga (24, FlashForward) and David Fury (24, Lost) are joined by Jon Cessar who served as executive producer and recurring director on every season of 24 (with the exception of season 8).  Cessar joins Terra Nova as executive producer and regular series director.  He will take over as director for a multi-episode arc after taking the reins from Alex Graves (Fringe) who is set to direct the pilot.

Terra Nova stars Jason O’Mara as Jim Shannon, a man who is sent back in time to prehistoric Earth with family in an attempt to save the human race.  Production is set to being at the end of this summer in Australia and the show is expected to debut its thirteen-episode order midseason on FOX.
