ABOUT
Atlanta is held hostage by a seemingly unstoppable Ebola-like virus in The CW’s new thriller Containment. Adapted from the hit Belgian series Cordon, the show centers around Atlanta Midtown Hospital, where Patient Zero, a supposed Syrian refugee, is being treated. After those in contact with him get deathly ill, police try to isolate the outbreak by cordoning off a large section of town, trapping thousands inside a fortified fence. As time passes and more citizens get sick, society begins to collapse.

"Many people will die. There is this threat permeating every breath people take," says executive producer Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries, The Originals), a self-described lover of deadly virus stories. "But the show is also about the beautiful notion of trying to get across the world—and through the border of the quarantine—to get your loved ones back. There’s hope attached to it." Meet the characters inside and outside the quarantine zone.

Containment
"PILOT"
Tuesday, April 19th at 9pm ET/8pm CT on The CW

SERIES PREMIERE — When a mysterious and deadly epidemic breaks out in Atlanta, a vast urban quarantine is quickly enforced. Trying to keep the peace on the streets is police officer Lex Carnahan (David Gyasi), who has quickly risen through the ranks of the Atlanta PD. But Lex's job becomes even harder when he learns that his longtime girlfriend, Jana (Christina Moses), and his best friend and fellow officer Jake (Chris Wood), are trapped within the cordoned area. Also quarantined within viral ground zero is 17-year-old Teresa (Hanna Mangan Lawrence), who is eight months pregnant and now separated from her boyfriend on the other side; Katie Frank (Kristen Gutoskie), an elementary school teacher now placed on lockdown with her entire class, including her young son; and CDC researcher Dr. Victor Cannerts (George Young), the doctor who initially made the controversial call to quarantine the area, and who is now racing to find a cure for the virus. On the outside, Dr. Sabine Lommers (Claudia Black) leads the government efforts to contain the outbreak, and asks for Lex's help in enforcing the cordon – which grows increasingly difficult as the public trust deteriorates. David Nutter directed the episode written by Julie Plec (#101).
