Right now, he’s appearing in the Steven Spielberg-produced sci-fi show Falling Skies, which meant I got to have a quick chat to him…...

The name could go either way right now so we'll tag it as both. End Of the Road and Spirit Hunters. Some people wait to the last minute to make a final decision, it's all a part of merketing which I'm all too familiar with myself. The ghost story is directed by first timer J.P. Pierce, from a script by Monte M. Moore.
