With a pilot directed earlier this year by Danny Cannon ("CSI"), "Alcatraz" stars Jorge Garcia, Sam Neill, Parminder Nagra and Robert Forster following a 'miraculous prison break'.
"Alcatraz" is one of three new series shooting in Vancouver, including "The Secret Circle", a CW spinoff, based on the book series "The Vampire Diaries" by author L.J. Smith and ABC's modern 'fairy tale' take, "Once Upon a Time".
