Norman Reedus and Djimon Hounsou guard the last humans on the planet after breathable air becomes non-existent in the new trailer for “Air,” a science fiction film produced by “Walking Dead” creator Robert Kirkman.
In the trailer, the actors play two engineers tasked with protecting humans in air-tight coffins who are the “last remnants of human civilization.” When one of the facilities doesn’t check in, it becomes clear that something is about to go wrong. A fire breaks out, and the electricity fails, with 59 minutes of reserve air left. “1:59” is a time viewers see a lot throughout the trailer.
While saving mankind, they must preserve their own lives as well.

“Our priority is the safety of all American people,” a monotone overheard voice says as the trailer begins.
Directed by Christian Cantamessa, the film is produced by David Alpert (“Walking Dead), Chris Ferguson, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (“Insidious”) and Kirkman.

The infamous June 2013 scene involved the deaths of Lady Catelyn Stark, her son "King of the North" Robb and his pregnant wife, Talisa, at the hands of Lord Walder Frey and his brood. The bloody massacre was revenge on House Stark for Robb opting out of marrying one of Frey's daughters.
In the Season 3 finale, Dan Steven's character Matthew Crawley died in a brutal car crash after leaving the hospital where his wife had just given birth. His death was considered especially controversial because he cited a "desire for freedom" for choosing to leave the show.
History was made on Nov. 22, 1968 when the show featured TV's first interracial kiss between Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols).
In a 1977 episode of the sitcom, a man posing as a police detective attempted to sexually assault Edith (Jean Stapleton) on her 50th birthday. Such a scandalous scene had never been portrayed on TV before.
In a heartbreaking March 2014 scene, Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride) killed 12-year-old Lizzie Samuels (Brighton Sharbino). The two shared a mother-daughter closeness, until Lizzie drew a gun on her. A weepy Carol drove them to a field, told Lizzie to look at some flowers, then shot the girl in the back of the head.

Detective Elliot Stabler made an unexpected exit from "SVU" in Season 12 finale when star Christopher Meloni couldn't reach new contract terms. In the 2011 episode, Stabler shot and killed a teen girl who opened fire in his team's squad room. His PTSD from the killing was used as exit story.
Stephen Moyer and Mariana Klaveno characters Bill and Lorena had bizarre romp in 2010. Bill even turned Lorena's head 180 degrees to prevent her from looking at him. Lorena smiled, as a bit of blood spilled out of her mouth.
During an extremely violent scene in 2014, Marceline Hugot's character Gladys was stoned to death while strapped to a tree. She was a member of the cult-like group called Guilty Remnant.
Fans of "PLL" know the show thrives on plot twists, but no one anticipated the murder of one of Mona Vanderwaal (Janel Parrish). She was slayed in her home during Season 5's midseason finale in 2015. The bloody scenes were capped with a final look at Mona's body in a trunk, eyes wide open and skin pale.
In a 2015 episode, Sansa Stark suffered a degrading sexual assault at the hands of new husband, Ramsay Bolton, on their wedding night. He also made another Theon Greyjoy watch the encounter. Critics condemned the scene and show as promotion of violence against women.
In the Season 3 finale in 1980, oil tycoon J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman) was shot outside of his office and spawned popular catchphrase "Who shot J.R.?" Fans waited 8 months to find out the answer, while a media frenzy ensued over whodunnit. His sister-in-law and mistress Kristin Shepard (Mary Crosby) was ultimately revealed as the shooter.
In arguably one of the most memorable moments on TV, a character in "L.A. Law" was offed in an abrupt manner. Diana Muldaur earned two Emmy nods for her role as Rosalind Shays, but the character received a less than honorable exit by falling down an elevator shaft to her death in 1991.
Dr. Kimberly Shaw (Marcia Cross) was presumed dead after a car accident caused by her cheating boyfriend, viewers saw a terrifying scene in 1993's Season 2 finale.

When Adriana La Cerva (Drea de Matteo) was discovered as an FBI informant, a mobster drove her into a field under false pretenses and shot her to death as she tried to crawl away from him on a 2006 episode. The moment was as shocking to viewers as it was to her - she thought she headed to hospital to see her long-time fiancé, who attempted suicide.
Fans were unhappy at show's direction after the Conner family found happier days in a winning lottery ticket. Those fans got what they wanted in the series finale when it was revealed that Roseanne had been writing about her life all season and tweaking a few details. The biggest twist in her fictional writing - besides no lottery ticket - is that husband Dan (John Goodman) had actually died of the heart attack he suffered at his daughter's wedding a season prior.
In 2009, T.R. Knight opted to leave the Shonda Rhimes drama, but his character George's exit stands as one of the most unforgettable moments of the series. When a disfigured John Doe is brought into Seattle Grace after being hit by a bus while pushing a woman out of the way from it, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) checks on him. Doe, who is actually O'Malley, eventually succeeds in writing "007" on Meredith's hand, and shocked, she realizes Doe's identity. After she informs the surgeons it's George, he's rushed to surgery but he flatlines and is ultimately declared brain dead.
In 2014, Jaime Lannister forced himself onto his sister Cersei. The worst part - it was beside the tomb of their dead son Joffrey.
