TNT has postponed its previously scheduled season three premiere of “The Last Ship” in the wake of a mass shooting in an Orlando, Fla., nightclub.
“As a result of the shootings this weekend in Orlando, tonight’s originally scheduled season premiere of ‘The Last Ship’ has been postponed,” TNT said in a statement on Sunday. “Our hearts are with the victims and their families.”
The scheduling change is likely due to the fact that the episode reportedly begins with the sound of a gunshot and features attackers opening fire in a Vietnamese nightclub full of people dancing. The Orlando shooting is the deadliest in U.S. history, killing 50 people and injuring 53 more. The shooter was killed in a shootout with police.
“The Last Ship” season three premiere clocks in at two hours. It’s not yet been announced when the episode will air.
