New Riese the Series episode is up. I keep waiting for something more to happen. The pace was a little better than ep 3, but it still feels like we are just biding time…

Episode 4: “Spares”
Unwilling to turn a blind eye to The Sect’s suspicious activities in Helmkin, Riese searches an eerie warehouse for answers.

If case you missed them:
Episodes 1: “The Hunt” & 2: “Fragments”

Episode 3: “Bind”

When I watched the trailer, I never actually stopped to check out the cast. Duh. There are SF actors from from shows like Sanctuary, BSG, Eureka and SGU in this:

Christine Chatelain as Riese (Dark Angel, Sanctuary, Supernatural)
Sharon Taylor as Amara (Eureka, Smallville, Stargate: Atlantis),
Patrick Gilmore as Trennan (Battlestar Galactica, Eureka, Smallville, Stargate: SG1, Stargate: Universe)
Ben Cotton as Herrick (Harper’s Island, Stargate: Atlantis),

Pretty nifty. The first two episodes are up now and I finally sat down to watch them. It definitely has the feel of a TV series instead of a Webseries. Between that and the heavy SyFy shows the cast have been in, I’m wondering if that means it has a chance to follow Sanctuary’s route and become a TV series too. Awesome if it did. :)

Episode 1: “The Hunt”

Episode 2: “Fragments”

The webseries will air this Fall. Here’s a bit about the plot:

In a dystopian reality, Riese, a seemingly random wanderer, is being hunted by a terrifying religious group, The Sect. Traveling from nation to nation for years, she is accompanied only by a wolf, Fenrir. Together they must evade the assassins sent by the Sect – who’ll stop at nothing to complete the task they failed to achieve.

Her past is shrouded in mystery, as even Riese can’t recall the events of the tragic night when her entire family was slaughtered and she was forced to flee. On her journey, she’ll piece together her past, and her destiny, in a conflict that will hold the fate of the world in the balance – and the once peaceful kingdom of Eleysia will be the battlefield.

“Riese”, a completely unique and original web production, stars Christine Chatelain (Sanctuary), Sharon Taylor (Stargate: Atlantis), Ben Cotton (Harper’s Island) and Patrick Gilmore (Stargate Universe). Riese is shot on the innovative RED One camera and premieres this fall.
