It is a science fiction mystery drama with a time traveling plot loosely adapting the 1995 film 12 Monkeys, itself based on Chris Marker's 1962 featurette La Jetée. In the series, Aaron Stanford and Amanda Schull star as James Cole and Dr. Cassandra "Cassie" Railly, two strangers brought together by destiny on a mission to use time travel to stop the destructive plans of the enigmatic organization "Army of the 12 Monkeys". Kirk Acevedo and Noah Bean also star in the first season. In the second season, Bean makes a guest appearance, and Todd Stashwick, Emily Hampshire, and Barbara Sukowa are promoted from recurring guests to regulars. In the fourth season, Acevedo moves from starring to recurring guest star. Stanford, Hampshire, and Schull play reimagined versions of characters respectively portrayed by Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe, and Brad Pitt in the 1995 film. Stowe made a guest appearance in the second season in a small but pivotal role. Natalie Chaidez was the showrunner of 12 Monkeys during its first season, working closely with creators Matalas and Fickett. For the second season, she stepped down from the role of consultant and Matalas and Fickett became showrunners. In the third and fourth seasons Fickett became a consultant, and Matalas was the sole showrunner. The series was produced by Atlas Entertainment, which also made the 1995 film, and Universal Cable Productions. Charles Roven, producer of the original film, was one of the series executive producers. 12 Monkeys premiered on January 16, 2015, with a 13-episode first season which received mixed critical reception, and ended with the completion of its 11-episode fourth season on July 6, 2018, for a total of 47 episodes produced. From its second season and onward, it enjoyed more consistently favorable critical reception. The series won two awards for its cinematography, one by each of the American and Canadian Societies of Cinematographers, and was nominated for a further four. Plot List of 12 Monkeys episodesList of 12 Monkeys episodes In the year 2043, scavenger James Cole (Aaron Stanford) has been recruited by a team of "Project Splinter" scientists led by physicist Katarina Jones (Barbara Sukowa), to travel back in time to the year 2015 and stop the release of a deadly virus by the enigmatic organization known as the "Army of the 12 Monkeys". In Cole's original timeline, the virus caused a plague (Kalavirus) that resulted in the death of seven billion humans in the year 2017, and its mutations will mean the eventual end of the human race. In the 2015 timeline, Cole will meet and enlist the help of brilliant virologist Dr. Cassandra "Cassie" Railly (Amanda Schull); the two are brought together because a recording mentioning Cole, that Cassie made after the viral outbreak, is uncovered by Katarina Jones in the future timeline, prompting her to select Cole for the mission. Cole will also encounter a seemingly unstable math genius named Jennifer Goines (Emily Hampshire), whose father Cole has been ordered to kill, Cassie's ex-boyfriend Aaron Marker (Noah Bean) and the dangerous high-ranking members of the Army of the 12 Monkeys, "Pallid Man" (Tom Noonan) and Olivia (Alisen Down). In the future timeline, Cole will also have to deal with his best friend José Ramse (Kirk Acevedo), and a man named Theodore Deacon (Todd Stashwick), who leads a brutal pack of scavengers from which Cole and Ramse fled. Cole and Cassie will try to unveil the identity and whereabouts of the mysterious leader of the Army of the 12 Monkeys, who is only known as "the Witness" and who is always one step ahead of them.

Otero February 20, 2015 TV Fanatic January 23, 2017 According to Matalas, most of the Splinter pilot was changed, aside from the overall structure of the plot being an attempt to stop a man from doing something in the past, the concept of the same watch from different points in time, the terminology used for traveling through time ("splintering"), and the female lead character named "Cassie".https://www.forbes.com/sites/merrillbarr/2015/10/09/12-monkeys-season-2-nycc-terry-matalas/3/#4fba79885355 NYCC Exclusive: 12 Monkeys Executive Producer Terry Matalas On Season 2 And Show's Roots Merrill Barr Forbes October 9, 2015 January 23, 2017 Development 35% "Ultimately, our version of predestination – and where it diverges from La Jetée or the original film – is that it's a basically a bullfight, a ballet, against Time. That Time is something to be wrestled with and fought against – and after you've bled and been beaten and gotten your ass thoroughly kicked, maybe you've moved it an inch. The idea of a closed loop works beautifully in a film, but for the story and the emotion of a TV series to really resonate, the characters and the audience have to believe that change is possible. It's hard-fought and not without causalities along the way, but we've already seen that time can be affected. Whether it can be changed enough – or how Time might account for those changes – are some of the central questions of the show. It's also possible that all of this is a closed loop with several loops inside that loop." —Terry Matalas, co-creator, on how the time travel model of the series differs from that of its source material.http://www.signaltonoisemag.com/allarticles/2016/6/30/the-power-of-a-paradox-a-lesson-about-time-travel-on-syfys-12-monkeys-part-i https://web.archive.org/web/20160706070725/http://www.signaltonoisemag.com/allarticles/2016/6/30/the-power-of-a-paradox-a-lesson-about-time-travel-on-syfys-12-monkeys-part-i usurped July 6, 2016 The Power of a Paradox: A Lesson About Time Travel from SyFy's 12 Monkeys (Part I) Signal to Noise Magazine June 30, 2016 Jennifer Lovick January 28, 2017 right On July 22, 2013, The Hollywood Reporter first revealed that Syfy was developing a 12 Monkeys television adaptation, in the form of a 90-minute backdoor pilot that would lead to a straight-to-series order, similarly to what the Battlestar Galactica miniseries did.

June 15, 2018 November 1, 2020 Standing sets used in the series were changed constantly to reflect both older and newer versions of the locales and also alterations to the locations that resulted from the characters' trips through time. Cinematography Todd McMullen served as director of photography for the pilot, but once the series was ordered to series, David Greene replaced him. After shooting the first five episodes, Greene asked the producers if it would be possible to bring in an additional cinematographer so that they could alternate. Tico Poulakakis was brought in and filmed three episodes for the first season. In the second season, Greene and Poulakakis were joined by Boris Mojsovski, who became Greene's main alternate until the end of the series. To get more shooting days out of the production's schedule, two camera units shot in parallel resulting in episodes featuring work done by both Greene and Mojsovski.http://www.csc.ca/publications/2018/201805/IssueWeb201805.pdf Canadian Cinematographer May 2018 12 Monkeys https://web.archive.org/web/20180731123513/https://www.csc.ca/publications/2018/201805/IssueWeb201805.pdf July 31, 2018 Mojsovski said about his close collaboration with Greene: "David and I were constantly working in unison. I'd prelight his sets and he'd prelight mine; I'd shoot one-third of his episode, and he'd shoot one-third of mine. We got so good at that, today we don't know who shot what!"https://ascmag.com/articles/12-monkeys-time-independent 12 Monkeys: Time Independent The American Society of Cinematographers Rachael Bosley July 2, 2018 July 3, 2018 Stylistically, for the scenes set in the bleak future timeline, the production team decided to use a palette of constant blue and green tones, as well as smoke and atmosphere, to differentiate it from the ones set in the present timeline. The present timeline often used a wider range of colors. Greene decided to ignore the visual style of the original film, as he felt the series told a different story than it had.https://www.creativeplanetnetwork.com/news/12-monkeys-time-travels-2015-science-fiction-tale-reimagined-syfy-series-607895 12 Monkeys Time Travels to 2015: The Science Fiction Tale Is Reimagined as a Syfy Series Creative Planet Network John Merli December 18, 2014 July 3, 2018 Instead, Greene's biggest stylistic influence while establishing the show's look in the first season was the film Children of Men, which he referenced for the look of the future timeline. Filming for the show was done digitally in 1080p. For the first season, the cinematographers used the Arri Alexa Classic EV camera. Beginning with the second season, they transitioned to using the Alexa Mini. Lenses used for the first two seasons were Cooke 5/i and S4, and Leica Summilux-C later. Green mentioned using Panavision Primo lenses as well. In the third season, the MoVi camera stabilizer was used, and for a scene where Cole encounters his future self, the motion control Technodolly.https://theasc.com/ac_magazine/December2015/ASCTVSeriesNominees/page3.html The ASC -- American Cinematographer: ASC TV Series Nominees The American Society of Cinematographers July 3, 2018 The American Society of Cinematographers has recognized the artistry and craftsmanship behind the show's cinematography by awarding it once and nominating it another two times, in categories relating to "Outstanding Achievement in Cinematography". The Canadian Society of Cinematographers similarly recognized it with one award and one nomination in the category of "TV Series Cinematography".https://www.csc.ca/award/2016/ CSC Awards 2016 Canadian Society of Cinematographers July 31, 2018https://www.csc.ca/award/2017/ CSC Awards 2017 Canadian Society of Cinematographers July 31, 2018 Visual effects For the first season of 12 Monkeys, visual effects for the series were provided by Stargate Studios. Typical effects work included the "splintering" time travel effect, matte paintings of the decayed future timeline, and enhancing the stage sets. Starting with the second season, Folks VFX took over. According to Sebastien Bergeron, founder and VFX supervisor at Folks VFX, an episode of 12 Monkeys has 60–75 effects shots on average, but any given episode could have as low as 30 or as high as 100–125 shots. Bergeron said the bulk of their work was creating "unseen environments", but other instances of their output included "environment work, big futuristic cities, a time-traveling city, twinning of characters when they meet themselves in the past, destruction, explosions, all sorts of FX and particles – pretty much everything. There are also situations when we freeze the time, and then one character walks in the shot."https://area.autodesk.com/life-in-3d/folks-vfx-offers-12-facts-about-syfy-series-12-monkeys/ Folks VFX offers 12 facts about "12 Monkeys" – Life in 3D Area by Autodesk October 25, 2017 July 4, 2018 Music Trevor Rabin and his longtime assistant Paul Linford composed the series' music for its first two seasons.https://variety.com/2015/music/features/trevor-rabin-billion-dollar-composer-1201526098/ Trevor Rabin's Rousing Scores a Testament to Life After Yes Jon Burlingame June 23, 2015 Variety February 1, 2017 Varèse Sarabande released the composers' score for the first season, consisting of 23 tracks, digitally and on CD, on July 31, 2015.https://www.amazon.com/12-Monkeys-Original-Television-Linford/dp/B00YZ6MY1S/ 12 Monkeys: Music From Syfy Original Television Series July 31, 2015 February 1, 2017 Amazon Rabin called it "a hybrid score of ethnic sounds, orchestra, and electronic, with a strong theme base".http://top40-charts.com/news.php?nid=112053 Varese Sarabande Records To Release 12 Monkeys - Original Television Soundtrack Top40 Charts July 22, 2015 February 1, 2017 The original film's theme music – an arrangement of Astor Piazzolla's Suite Punta del Este made by Paul Buckmaster – can be heard during the ninth episode of the second season, "Hyena".https://www.tvfanatic.com/2016/06/12-monkeys-season-2-episode-9-review-hyena/ 12 Monkeys Season 2 Episode 9 Review: Hyena Henry A.
