After a lot of success (if not without its fair share of criticism) with Westworld, HBO and J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot are teaming up for another big sci-fi series.

The logline for the series is pretty vague, as you'd expect, with HBO teasing "an epic and intimate fantasy series, [that] will focus on a world’s battle against a monstrous, oppressive force."

The pilot script comes straight from the pen of Abrams himself, marking the first time he's written for TV since NBC's Undercovers back in 2010, while Bash Doran (Boardwalk Empire, Masters of Sex) will serve as showrunner.
