Between his recent wrapping on the feature Faces in the Crowd<\/em> and beginning work in a Gothic interpretation of Red Riding Hood<\/em> next month, Stargate<\/em> star Michael Shanks<\/a> has managed to film a guest starring appearance on the Cartoon Network’s new live-action show Tower Prep<\/em>. Shanks sent a note to his Official Website<\/a> that introduces us to Professor Literature:<\/p>\n

“…squeezed in a guest-spot on a locally shot show called Tower Prep that our good friend Peter DeLuise was directing. It was fun; cool premise, nice folks. I play a character on it named Professor Literature.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The IMDb profile<\/a> for the show lists it as a drama, while MSOL-quoted Variety<\/em> calls it an action thriller. The Newsarama Blog<\/a> featured an article about the show’s having been picked up and described it as being “about a rebellious teen who wakes up one day trapped in a mysterious, inescapable prep school. By teaming up with his fellow students\/inmates, this series looks like a long term caper.” Peter DeLuise has directed more than one episode of the new show, which currently is set to premiere this fall.<\/p>\n

More about the show from Cartoon Network\/Turner Newsroom<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Tower Prep<\/strong><\/em>: A one-hour, live-action scripted series premiering this fall, Tower Prep<\/em> tells the story of a rebellious teen, Ian (Drew Van Acker), who wakes up one morning to find himself trapped at a mysterious prep school that offers no escape. He forms a secret group with CJ (Elise Gatien), Gabe (Ryan Pinkston) and Suki (Dyana Liu), intent on discovering what they\u2019re being trained for and how to escape. Tower Prep<\/em> is produced by Cartoon Network Studios in association with Dolphin Entertainment. The series is executive-produced and created by Paul Dini (Lost, Batman Beyond<\/em>).
