With the fall comes all-new television series and coming this September to Fox is Sleepy Hollow, an old tale but with a new twist.

The new series is based on Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, but is a modern retelling where Ichabod Crane is resurrected in present-day where the world is in danger and he’s humanity’s last hope. Oh, and there’s a murderous Headless Horseman!

Watch the video here below for the show, titled “Secrets,” as well as the full trailer.

From co-creators/executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (the “Star Trek” and “Transformers” franchises, “Fringe”) comes the adventure thriller SLEEPY HOLLOW. In this modern-day retelling of Washington Irving’s classic, ICHABOD CRANE (Tom Mison, “Salmon Fishing in the Yemen”) is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to find that the world is on the brink of destruction and that he is humanity’s last hope, forcing him to team up with a contemporary police officer (Nicole Beharie, “Shame,” “American Violet”) to unravel a mystery that dates back to the founding fathers.

I’m totally looking forward to this series, and even got to glimpse an actual Headless Horseman last month during Comic-Con in San Diego.

Sleepy Hollow comes to Fox on Mondays at 9/8c, starting on September 16, 2013.

Video: ‘Secrets’

As you can see in the videos here, Clancy Brown is in the show and for some reason they give away what happens to him, but it is a cool nod to his role as the Kurgan from Highlander. Nice bit of casting here.
