FIRST IMAGES FROM NETFLIX NEW HISTORICAL ADVENTURE TV SERIES 'MARCO POLO' WITH LORENZO RICHELMY! BRIAN VAN HOLT AND TRICIA HELFER JOIN SYFY'S SF SERIES 'ASCENSION'

SYFY'S 'ASCENSION' SERIES
 BRIAN VAN HOLT AND TRICIA HELFER LEAD THE CAST
Two pieces of television news for you today, people, starting with SyFy's new science fiction mini series ASCENSION which will air in six episodes sometime later this November. Created by SMALVILLE's Philip Levens the show already has two stars - Brian Van Holt from COUGAR TOWN and Tricia Helfer from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. In 1963, the U.S. government launched a covert space mission sending hundreds of men, women and children on a century-long voyage aboard the starship ASCENSION to populate a new world. Nearly 50 years into the journey, as they approach the point of no return, a mysterious murder of a young woman causes the ship’s population to question the true nature of their mission.  

SPACE AIN'T GOOD FOR LOVE 
Tricia Helfer will play Viondra Denniger, a beautiful, manipulative and dangerous power broker on the ASCENSION. Brian Van Holt  will play William Denninger, captain of the ship and Viondra's husband. A natural leader, William quickly rose through the ranks after playing a heroic role in a fire early in the spacecraft's voyage. While his professional life is solid, William's marriage to Viondra is anything but.
