First Brief ‘The Strain’ Teaser Now Online!

Briefly: It was just a few weeks ago that FX announced that The Strain had received a 13-episode order, and today the show’s first teaser made its way online.

The mysterious video first premiered during last night’s midseason finale of The Walking Dead (which I haven’t caught up on, so be quiet about it), but has now appeared on an official-looking The Strain related YouTube channel.

The Strain is a high-concept thriller that tells the story of Dr. Ephraim Goodweather (Stoll), the head of the Center for Disease Control Canary Team in New York City. He and his team are called upon to investigate a mysterious viral outbreak with hallmarks of an ancient and evil strain of vampirism. As the strain spreads, Eph, his team, and an assembly of everyday New Yorkers wage war for the fate of humanity itself.

The series sounds very cool, and I can’t wait to check out the first episode when it premieres this July. For now, take a look at the teaser below, and let us know what you think! We’ll be sure to share more The Strain news as it comes out!
