'The Passage': 10-year-old Amy Bellafonte is a girl unscathed by the deadliest virus, a ray of hope fighting for survival

Amy comes out unscathed and unaffected by any of the virus' side effects; and this is sets off the sequence of events in the story we will see in the upcoming Fox show.

Fox has decided to shift gears from stereotypical science fiction thrillers, when it comes to its upcoming show, 'The Passage.' Based on a novel trilogy from Patrick Ness, the show mingles science fiction with the supernatural; all set in a dystopian world where natural disasters and ambitious dark masterminds have taken over the planet.

Arriving as a beacon of hope into the plot is "the most important girl", aka Amy Bellafonte, who all of 10, is somehow able to get out of the devious trap weaved by those in power, coming out unscathed.  Releasing January 14, 'The Passage' follows Amy's life from its biggest turning point it and that is when she is somehow roped into the mysterious Project Noah. Thereon begins the presumably orphaned Amy's story of a fight for survival to escape her foreseeable future in the project, as she slowly realizes how the fate of the world lies in her hands.
