The One: Synopsis

Imagine that you exist in different forms in parallel universes. Your alter egos live out different destinies and follow different paths, both good and evil.

What would happen if one of your alter egos turned on the others and would stop at nothing to take over your world?

In "The One," parallel universes collide when a rogue agent assigned to monitor these universes begins eliminating versions of himself in each alternate reality. Assuming more energy and power with each version he destroys, he must finally confront the one man standing between himself and his ultimate goal... to be The One.

From Glen Morgan and James Wong, who brought you "Final Destination," "Space: Above and Beyond" and episodes of "The X-Files," "The One" stars Jet Li as both predator and prey in an innovative, action-packed sci-fi thriller set to dominate our dimension this fall.

Alternate life waves exist in alternate universes. This is a fact that everyone at the Multiverse Bureau of Investigation accepts and upholds. Every Multiverse Agent, that is, but former Multiverse investigator Gabriel Yulaw. Yulaw, as he is better known, has traversed 123 universes hunting down and destroying his alternate life forces. As he slays each one, his remaining alter egos absorb the power and strength of those alternate life forces, gaining superhuman abilities. Yulaw continues his rampage, eradicating "himself" in each universe in an attempt to achieve his ultimate goal-to be the only one.

No one knows what the magnitude of such a phenomenon will be. No one can say what will happen to the delicate balance of the many universes if he is successful in his obsessive endeavor.

The other Gabriel Yulaw, known as Gabe, is the last alternate life wave standing between Yulaw and his ultimate goal. He is a great husband and an honored veteran of the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department. Gabe's life is shattered when Yulaw, hotly pursued by M.V.A., enters his universe. But saving himself-the only alternative left to him-isn't as simple as killing his evil twin from another world. Unbeknownst to Gabe, if Yulaw dies, the Multiverse Bureau of Investigation has strict orders to ensure that Gabe, too, does not become The One.

Scientists and mathematicians have been pondering the notion of multiple universes for centuries. Theories have been suggested, books have been written, even psychics and astrologers have speculated that more than one of each of us exists, and although no hard facts uphold such a belief, many knowledgeable people feel certain of this hypothesis. Would you be given another set of life circumstances? Would you have the same job? Would you select the same mate? Would you be happier or more successful in another world? Or, given the opportunity, would you discover that your alter ego is someone nothing like yourself? What if he or she were evil incarnate?
