Synopsis
In 2065 Washington, D.C., Dash (Sands), a "precog" has the ability to predict crimes. The precrime unit was dismantled in 2054, forcing law enforcement to rely on newer methods to fight crime. Before it was dismantled, Dash, his twin brother Arthur (Zano), and their foster sister Agatha (Regan) were part of the program that gave them their unique gifts. Now, Dash is using his ability to assist Detective Lara Vega (Good) in preventing crimes, and at the same time trying to keep his gift from being revealed, as there are those who want to obtain the precogs at any cost, and use their abilities once more.
Cast
Main
Stark Sands as Dash Parker (né Arkadin), a precog who can see the murders of others before they occur, who seeks ways to stop these preventable deaths. During his precognitive visions Dash sees the fractions of the murders, the horror, as described by Wally with the victim and the murder.
Meagan Good as Lara Vega, a detective for the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia who Dash co-ops into assisting him on his mission to save would-be murder victims before their killers can kill them.
Nick Zano as Arthur Watson (né Arkadin), Dash's fraternal twin brother; an executor, estate planner and finance manager. He reluctantly helps out Dash and Vega. While easier to endure than his brother's or Agatha's visions, Arthur's precognitive visions act more as an antenna, pulling in names, facts, and information about the murdered person.
Daniel London as Norbert "Wally" Wallace, Dash, Arthur and Agatha's primary caretaker during their eight years in the milk bath.
