Dominion is an American apocalyptic supernatural action television series created by Vaun Wilmott and based on characters from the 2010 film Legion written by Peter Schink and Scott Stewart, which follows the perilous journey of a rebellious young soldier in the year 25 A.E. who discovers he's the unlikely saviour of humanity.
In this transformed post-apocalyptic future, an army of lower angels, assembled by the archangel Gabriel, has waged a war of possession against mankind. The archangel Michael, turning against his own kind, has chosen to side with humanity against Gabriel.
Rising out of the ashes of the 25 year-long battle are newly fortified cities which protect the human survivors. In Vega (formerly Las Vegas), the largest of these cities, two houses vie for control and the stage is set for political upheaval and a dangerous power shift.
Meanwhile, a rebellious young soldier begins a perilous journey as the war between the human race and the fallen angels hell-bent on their domination escalates.
Dominion stars Christopher Egan (Kings), Tom Wisdom (300), Roxanne McKee (Game of Thrones), Alan Dale (Lost), Anthony Head (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Luke Allen-Gale (The Borgias).
