Plans are already underway to turn Roland Emmerich’s new “what if” disaster movie 2012 into a TV show. Today he offered details on what the TV show’s all about while out promoting the movie.

The TV show will be called 2013 and as the title suggests, it takes place after the events of the movie. Emmerich specifically references Lost and District 9 as models for the show, which I guess means an endless series of questions without answers.

SPOILER ALERT! The survivors on the giant rescue boats you’ll see at the end of the movie arrive in Africa, where a bunch of people survived the tidal wave and are pissed they weren’t invited on the boats. Emmerich says it’s about how it’s “not the bright happy future everyone was imagining” when we last saw them at the end of the movie.
