The series follows the residents of Arcadia, Missouri, whose lives take a surprising turn when their loved ones return from the dead, unaged since their supposed deaths, including Jacob Garland, an 8-year-old boy drowned thirty years earlier.

Production

The idea to bring Jason Mott's novel "The Returned" to television was announced in December 2012, just weeks before the publication was released. In January 2013 ABC ordered the project to pilot status and in March bought in Charles McDougall as director as part of a two-year deal he signed with ABC Studios. On March 7, 2013, ABC released its list of potential hour-long pilot pick ups, with the series title changed to Forever. The title would once again change names after ABC ordered it to series status in May 2013.
