Eines Tages staunt er nicht schlecht, als eines Morgens vor seiner Tür eine Katze steht und neben ihr die Chicago Sun-Times von morgen. Gary weiß nicht, wer ihm die Zeitung schickt und warum. Nur eines ist klar: Nach Erhalt der Zeitung hat er nur 24 Stunden Zeit um sich anbahnende Katastropen abzuwenden. Leichter gesagt als getan, zumal Gary niemanden von der Zeitung erzählt, bis auf seinen Freund und Kollegen Chuck Fishman und der blinden Telefonistin Marissa...
This is an hour-long drama about Chicago native Gary Hobson who becomes a reluctant hero when his morning newspaper reports tomorrow's headlines. Commodities trader Gary Hobson (Kyle Chandler) is losing it: his job, his home and his brilliant attorney wife. He thinks he may even be losing his mind when tomorrow's newspaper mysteriously arrives today – giving him a disconcerting look into the future. What will he do with tomorrow's news? While his best friend Chuck (Fisher Stevens) sees the newspaper as a ticket to personal gain, co-worker Marissa (Shanesia Davis) convinces Gary that the "early edition" should be used to better peoples' lives. So each day Gary begins anew the struggle to make sense of a world turned upside-down by the changing course of events that come from reading the "early edition."
