The show’s pitch: “What if you suddenly woke up from the throes of death 250 years in the future to find the world is on the brink of destruction, caused by unimaginable events, and you are humanity’s last hope?” “Sleepy Hollow”–based on Irving’s 1820 short “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow”–was co-created for television by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci, Phillip Iscove and Len Wisewman, whose credits include “Hawaii Five-0,” “Underworld” and “Total Recall.”

“Fox is a valuable client and we look forward to continuing our relationship with them on this and future productions.” Film Office Director Aaron Syrett said in Thursday’s announcement. “20th Century Fox Television continues to see the value of working in North Carolina,” N.C. The Port City has, generally over the past two years, regained its status as a hotbed for motion picture-making– the recently released smash “Iron Man 3” was filmed here as well– with officials routinely crediting the incentives North Carolina offers high-spending productions. The fourth (and reportedly final) season of HBO’s “East Bound and Down” is also in the works, locally. Wilmington has in recent time served as the filming location for such television shows as NBC’s “Revolution” and the forthcoming “Under the Dome” on CBS, the latter based on a story by Stephen King.

In his pursuit to save her, Ichabod uncovers secrets about her which leave him with even more questions. The divide between present and past become dangerously blurred and lives are left in the balance - including that of Ichabod’s late wife, Katrina (Katia Winter), who’s trapped in a mysterious netherworld. He teams up with Lieutenant Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie), a young cop who has her own supernatural experiences.Ĭlues from the past enlighten mysteries in the present, thanks to flashbacks of Ichabod’s life in 1776.

He’s only one of the many formidable foes that Ichabod must face to protect not only Sleepy Hollow, but the world. Ichabod quickly realizes that his old adversary is just the beginning, as the resurrected rider is but the first of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Unfortunately, the infamous Headless Horseman is also revived and goes on a murderous rampage in present-day Sleepy Hollow. Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to unravel a mystery that dates all the way back to the founding fathers.
