The first trailer for new miniseries The Dovekeepers has been released.
The CBS series is an adaptation of the historical novel of the same name written by Alice Hoffman.
As seen in the brief clip, the series follows four extraordinary women who get caught up in the siege of Masada, a mountaintop location near the Dead Sea that was home to many in 70 CE.
The Dovekeepers stars NCIS alum Cote de Pablo, Agora's Andre Agius and Book of Blood's Jonas Armstrong.
The clip for the faith and love-based four-hour miniseries was introduced by producer Roma Downey at the Winter TV Press Tour on Monday (January 12).
"What attracted me is it had these amazingly powerful and courageous women. For many years as an actress myself I was always looking for the story or scripts that really put women out front and center. This does that. It's profoundly moving," Downey said of the story.
The Dovekeepers will premiere on March 31, with Part 2 set to air on April 1.
