Michael Chiklis (The Shield, Fantastic Four) was on hand at San Diego Comic-Con Saturday to promote his intriguing new television series, No Ordinary Family. We got the opportunity to talk with him about the new series and he lets us know who would win in a deathmatch, his character Vic Mackey from The Shield or Jim Powell, his new character that has super powers. He’s a great guy and we’re looking forward to the series, which debuts this fall on ABC.
No Ordinary Family:
After 16 years of marriage, Jim (Chiklis) feels disconnected from his workaholic wife Stephanie (Julie Benz, Dexter) and two teenage children, Daphne (Kay Panabaker, Summerland) and JJ (Jimmy Bennett, Star Trek). To encourage family bonding time, Jim decides the family will join Stephanie on her business trip to South America. When their plane crashes into the Amazon River, they barely enjoy a moment to celebrate their survival before returning to the grind of everyday life. But they will soon realize that their lives have been forever changed. Each member of the family starts to show signs of new, unique and distinct super powers. Will their newfound abilities finally bring them together or push them further apart?
