“Members of your crew have been replaced by an alien shapeshifter intent on causing confusion, sabotaging the ship, and killing everyone,” the CBS series logline reads, according to Variety. “Root out the ‘Impostor’ or fall victim to its murderous designs.”
Variety reports that there is no network or streamer attached to the show.
