Emma & Johnny in the 21st Century

Welcome to the Future is a brand new half-hour Wiki Channel comedy ordered for a pilot on December 22nd, 2014. The series focuses around two kids from the Revolutionary War, Emma Fulley and Johnathan Freeman, who are taken to the 21st century by Neal Continuum, a 21st century time traveler.

Overview
Johnathan Freeman and Emma Fulley live in Virginia in the 1700s. They witness the beginning of the battle at Fort Henry and run for cover, where they accidentally step into Neal Continuum's time machine and are taken to the 21st century. By the time Neal realizes what he's done, it's too late to take them back, as it could tear apart the entire space-time continuum. He plans to leave them behind, but they convince him to stay in the 21st century as their "parent" until they're ready to be on their own.

They become close friends with Alexis "Alex" Elliot and Sherman Mann, as well as forming fierce rivalries and other relationships and finally begin to feel comfortable in their new home.

Main Cast
Laura Minx as Emma "Em" Fulley - The fourteen year-old daughter of a poor blacksmith. Emma grew up in a world where women get married and cook and have no chance of following their dreams, and isn't used to women's rights. She knows when she needs help and who to ask for it.

Noah Carson as Johnathan "Johnny" Freeman - Johnny is the 16 year-old apprentice to Em's dad, a blacksmith. An ordinary 16 year-old from the 1700s. He is Emma's dad's apprentice. He's strong and mature and always ready to help, but doesn't always admit when he needs help himself.

Amera Columbia as Alexis "Alex" Elliot - Alex is Em's first friend. She's a women's rights activist, and almost immediately forms a strong dislike for Johnny (who has a massive crush on her). Despite their differences, she forms a bond with Em almost immediately after they meet.

Max Nickel as Sherman Mann - Sherman is Johnny's best friend. He's a super-nerd and as such doesn't fit in very well either, since he has very little social interaction. He tries to act cool, but usually fails, and likes to pretend he's the coolest kid on the block.

Neal Continuum - Neal is a time traveller from the 21st century. Although he looks 60, he says he's 23, claiming that time travel ages you. He's convinced by Emma and Johnny to stay behind in the 21st century, even though he's used to traveling through time constantly. Which means its about as hard for him to fit in with other parents as it is for the kids to fit in at their new school.

Recurring Cast
Sam Byran as Brock Highland - Brock Highland is the cool kid at Johnny's 21st century high school. He was held back two different times, so he still hasn't graduated. Although he acts cool, he's actually a softie and wants to become a veterinarian, but since his friends are bullies, he feels obligated to live up to their expectations.

Amy Kettle as Kimberly - Kimberly is a cheerleader. When Em starts to become popular, she starts to become jealous, and is immediately suspicious when she meets Em's "dad" Neal. Now she's on a mission- uncover the truth behind Emma Fulley, and reveal it to the entire school so she'll be the most popular.

Marissa Lunar as Maria Dominique Elaine Bellaire - Maria is a French exchange student at Em's school. Although she knows English (somewhat), she doesn't know American customs, and her mom asks Em to teach her about some of them, which doesn't go overly well. Although she ends up getting lessons from Alex, she and Em still form a strong friendship.

Dane Wilkins as Karl "Snappy" McSnapston - Karl is rather small and unimpressive for his age, but he's part of Brock's group. Secretly, he's the real "mean" behind the group, having been manipulating Brock. Brock tries to hide from Karl that he's been studying to graduate.
