Fox’s new family adventure series “Terra Nova” has now been scheduled to premiere this fall, foregoing a special preview airing this spring.

“Terra Nova” is one of the most ambitious television series ever produced,” Fox Broadcasting Company’s President of Entertainment Kevin Reilly said in a news release. “The cutting-edge visual effects used to create the world of “Terra Nova,” which is of massive scope and scale, require more time to be realized. This aspect of the series is essential, so we are pushing back the special early preview date to give the visual effects team the time needed for their ground-breaking work.”

The plot line of “Terra Nova” involves an ordinary family taking a journey back in time to prehistoric Earth as a small part of an experiment to save the human race.

With the planet dying in the year 2149, being overdeveloped, overcrowded and overpolluted with no known way to reverse the damage, scientists discover a portal to prehistoric Earth.

This portal leads to an amazing world that allows for a last-chance effort to save the human race.

The Shannon family joins the Tenth Pilgrimage, the first colony founded in “Terra Nova,” led by Commander Nathaniel Taylor (Stephen Lang).

Jim Shannon (Jason O’Mara) guides his family, wife Elisabeth (Shelley Conn) and children Josh (Landon Liboiron), Maddy (Naomi Scott) and Zoe (Alana Mansour) on the adventure through this new land.

Along with its beauty, “Terra Nova” provides new opportunities and fresh beginnings to its latest arrivals, but the family has brought with them a secret that may threaten their citizenship in this world.

The Shannons soon find out that “Terra Nova” isn’t as idyllic as it appears, with the areas surrounding it brimming with danger – and not only of the man-eating dinosaur kind.

The family will come to presume that not everybody on this mission is on the same page about how to best save mankind and that there may even be forces intent on eradicating this new world before it even begins.

“Terra Nova” is produced by 20th Century Fox Television, Chernin Entertainment, DreamWorks Television and Kapital Entertainment, with Peter Chernin, Steven Spielberg, René Echevarria, Brannon Braga, Aaron Kaplan, Katherine Pope, Justin Falvey, Darryl Frank, Jon Cassar, Craig Silverstein and Kelly Marcel serving as executive producers.

Also, Alex Graves serves as executive producer and directed the series premiere.
