Steven Spielberg's Terra Nova Finds a Lead
Terra Nova hasn't even shot a pilot yet, but thanks to the participation of executive producer Steven Spielberg it has loads of advanced buzz and a place on the Fox mid-season schedule. Now -- finally -- it has an actor. Jason O'Mara -- most recently of Life on Mars fame -- is in talks to play the lead on Terra Nova, a man who travels back to prehistoric time with his family to participate in a project designed to give humanity a second chance at building a civilization. Which probably reads as "blah blah blah" until you remember that there will be dinosaurs. So, win. [Deadline]

I think Jason O'Mara is perfect for the role. Spielberg really has some eye and can detect the diamonds for his epic movies. The storyline of 'Terra Nova' looks great to me. Lets wait for the release.
Spielberg + Dinosaurs = Epic Win
Who cares who the star is ... was "Jurassic Park" amazingly good because of Sam Neill and Laura Dern?!
Hell no, T-Rex and the Raptors stole the frikkin' show!
I think he is perfect for the role. But it is also right that when its about Spielberg, then everything else is secondary. He is the master of the directors.
Who cares about is he perfect or not. Most importantly, its a Spielberg movie, so just sit tight and wait for the thriller.
O'Mara was a great add to this cast and I hope this show does really well because of it!
