Torchwood: Miracle Day July 8th!

It’s been revealed today that The 4th season of Torchwood (The Doctor Who spin off) is going to begin airing on Starz on Friday July 8th. For those that don’t know Torchwood has been going through weird changes and one of the biggest was Starz picking them up and putting in a good chunk of money into making a 4th season. It will likely air at the same time in the UK as well. TVLine has an interview up with Russell T. Davies the creator of the show which reveals the cool things that will happen this season.

What would happen if the entire human race became immortal? “Not a single person on Earth dies. The old stay old. It’s great news for some people, but globally it’s an instant population boom. Earth relies on people dying. Suddenly you’re affecting everyone on the planet. That’s where the Torchwood team comes in.”

The cast includes the main stays of Captain Jack and Gwen but also adds to that Mekhi Phifer (ER, Lie To Me) and Bill Pullman. Below is a bigger shot of the official posted behind the season. This is big news for Torchwood fans and it makes me incredibly excited.
