Chuck alum Ryan McPartlin is starring in a web series, Daybreak, an action-thriller series of five, 10-minute online films linked to the Kiefer Sutherland-led FOX series Touch by a storyline following the mysterious dodecahedron introduced in the last three episodes of Touch. I’ve watched the first “chapter” and I’m still not 100% sure what’s going on, but it’s nice to see Ryan on screen again. And in uniform, no less.
According to FOX, Daybreak is a unique collaboration between AT&T, Touch creator Tim Kring and 24 director, Jon Cassar. The series stars Ryan Eggold and Sarah Roemer, along with supporting talent Ryan McPartlin, Eugene Byrd, and Shannon Lucio. Much of the narrative in Daybreak is driven by the use of technology including AT&T’s network, devices, and even some not-yet-available innovations from AT&T Labs.
The first chapter of Daybreak is below. Check out Daybreak2012.com for more, including “real world missions” that fans can work on together.
