Forty years after the Cylon Wars, humanity's deadliest enemies have re-emerged with a vengeance. In a sudden, devastating nuclear attack, the Cylon robots — which have now taken human form — wipe out billions of people. Only a ragtag fleet of Colonial forces is left to shepherd humanity's few survivors to safety. Commander William Adama (Edward James Olmos), a veteran of the Cylon Wars and the highest-ranking military officer left alive, reactivates the battlestar Galactica to once again face his greatest nemeses. His son, Lee (Jamie Bamber), callsign "Apollo," joins the fight alongside the fleet's best pilot, Kara Thrace (Katee Sackhoff), callsign "Starbuck." With the president and most of his senior cabinet killed in the attack, Secretary of Education Laura Roslin (Mary McDonnell) is sworn in as the new President of the 12 Colonies of Kobol. As Adama and Roslin debate whether to fight or flee, the Cylons launch a sneak attack on the new president's ship. |  |  |  |  |  | | |  | | A band of rebel Cylons hold President Roslin hostage while attempting to lure the Final Five out of hiding aboard Galactica. | | | | | | |  | | Exclusive interviews at the Arclight Theatre?s Red Carpet Premiere of Battlestar Galactica?s mid-season finale... | | | | | | | | |  | | | |  | |  |  | |  |  |  |  |  | |
