Aidan Quinn, Charles S. Dutton, Dean Cain, Kelly Hu and Gail O'Grady star in MAYDAY, a new television movie, based on the New York Times bestseller by Nelson DeMille and Thomas Block. In the new thriller, which has completed production in Toronto, chaos and death engulf an airliner traveling from the United States to Tokyo when it is accidentally hit by a U.S. Navy test missile. Weekend pilot John Berry (Quinn) is on board Pacific Global Flight #52 when it is accidentally struck by a stray military missile, ripping two huge holes in the side of the airplane. Moments after the violent collision, Berry realizes that the plane is still airborne, but most of its passengers are dead. As he and senior flight attendant Sharon Crandall (Hu), survey the wreckage on board, they realize that, though he has limited flying experience, Berry will have to pilot the jumbo airliner to a safe landing. Commander James Slan (Cain) and Admiral Randolph Hennings (Dutton) are in charge of the covert military missile testing exercise and are responsible for the stray missile that hit the airliner. With the threat of their covert mission being exposed, the two men must figure out how to keep this incident concealed from the public. With hundreds of lives at stake, Anne Metz (O'Grady) is responsible for assessing the enormous insurance claims that Pacific Global faces, which in all likelihood will cause the company to shut down. |
